Biggest opportunity: “call button”, “contact widget” and “floating contact button” 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.

Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.

    I found this fantastic pluigin when I was searching for a contact widget plugin for my website. While others were heavy and offering functionalities in paid subcsriptions, I found this plugin offerring the same thing for free. It is easily floated to the right bottom corner of screen without any problem and it responsive. I customized the settings like phone number, whatsapp number and button texts etc easily from it’s settings admin’s area. It is completely customized and lightweight. The UI is modern and nice. I tested it on my live website. It sends the live chat users to WhatsApp and display a phone numbre when clicking on Phone button on PC/laptop and it takes to the dialpad when clicking on mobile device. I love it as it served my purpose of simple and lightweight floating contact widget for my website to connect with my users through WhatsApp chat and phone call.
