Biggest opportunity: Swap “currency calculator” for “foreign exchange”. “currency calculator” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “foreign exchange” sits at #13 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 400 of 59.1K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

I was told to convert Iraqi Dinar exchange value to USD and other currency of the world. So went to google converter. But it was very tedious for me. So, one of my friend suggested to use the Converter plugin on my website and lo! my work was done in a jiffy. Now at least I am not feeling fatigue while converting the currencies. God bless the creator of the plugin who made it easy to do job of money conversion.

It could be 5 star if it was simple as many others converters and without external link. Also it autocratically puts Euro everywhere. Deleted it.
