Biggest opportunity: Swap “attendees” for “attendee management”. “attendees” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “attendee management” sits at #14 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 100 of 153.9K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 940 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| event registration your tag | #15 | #24 | 0 |
| attendee management | #14 | #18 | 0 |
| attendees your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| calendar your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| events your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| registration your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
13 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 11 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Swap “attendees” for “attendee management”. “attendees” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “attendee management” sits at #14 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “event registration”. #15 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
