Biggest opportunity: “accessibility”, “color scheme” and “dark mode” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| accessibility your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| color scheme your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| dark mode your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

I installed the Dark Mode plugin yesterday and it works really well. The activation is quick, and switching between light and dark mode feels smooth. I like how clean the design looks, and it already adds a polished feel to the site. For a first release, this is an excellent start. Looking forward to seeing more customization options and enhancements in future updates. Great work – keep it up!
