Biggest opportunity: Swap “prayer times” for “shabbat”. “prayer times” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “shabbat” sits at #16 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 20 of 3.9K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,770 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| davening your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| davening times your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| zman your tag | #4 | #4 | 0 |
| zmanim your tag | #7 | #6 | 0 |
| shabbat | #16 | #13 | down 1 |
| prayer times your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
7 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 5 listed. 2 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn't in the top 24 for their own search.

We are SO grateful that Adato System created this plugin, and we will be donating in appreciation! The only improvement I might suggest is adding a shortcode so we can also include the times on a page / post. Toda raba! 🙂

I needed something like this for a long time. Great Widget. Very functional.

After installing this plugin (which works very well, by the way) I found that I was taller, a better dancer, a snappier dresser, was wittier at dinner parties, and that my lifelong affliction of bad-breath had finally cleared up. And I’m totally NOT the author of this plugin, so you can believe me. Honest.
