Biggest opportunity: Add “wpbakery page builder”, “wpbakery page builder addons” and “wpbakery addons” to your wp.org tags. You rank #6, #8 and #15 for them without listing them, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 3 listed these are the slots worth spending.

How it's measured →7.9%
of downloads still active
At least 500 of 6.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,263 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 1 release in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

Even more when like me you have plugins that add elements, you lose substantial time looking for an element, and it’s better than using the search box in the elements list ! And it works perfectly
