Biggest opportunity: Swap “calendar”, “event scheduling” and “room booking” for “recurrence”, “vehicle rental” and “icalendar”. “calendar” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “recurrence” sits at #14 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “event scheduling” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “vehicle rental” sits at #19 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “room booking” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “icalendar” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →0.3%
of downloads still active
At least 90 of 31.4K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 944 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
