Biggest opportunity: “author box”, “citations” and “seo” 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.

of downloads still active

At least 100 of 3.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median SEO plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,193 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other SEO plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

    Promising plugin, there are some areas for improvement that would make this plugin better. At least in my case. I would like to suggest the following for improvement: WPML support. Author bylines (and possibly other parts of the plugin) show elements in the main language only. For example the ”written by” and ”updated on” text. Overall it will need WPML support to be used on multilingual websites. Another problem with multilingual websites and author bylines is that other languages than the main language shows eeatwpcp-author-bylines-modal-author-social-img with link to the main language page. Author bylines: add more options / ability to add elements, for example add ”Medically reviewed by” (important for EEAT in medical). And an option to remove elements as ”updated on”. So more flexibility in adjusting / styling the author bylines are very welcome. Auto Citations: Please consider an option to just add the citations myself. No Superscript needed, just a blank field where I can add citations myself. Because not all citation sources are supported for example. I hope this feedback is helpful, overall it’s a good plugin!
