Biggest opportunity: “contact form”, “contact form plugin” and “custom form builder” 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 10 of 1.3K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,668 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Forms plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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.

Incredibly intuitive and efficient, this plugin makes form creation a breeze!
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Dhimanda2.4y ago
Formit Builder is an outstanding plugin for creating custom forms effortlessly! The drag-and-drop interface is intuitive and makes form design a breeze, even for someone with no technical background. The real-time preview is a fantastic feature, ensuring that the forms look exactly how I want them before publishing. I love the variety of fields and templates available, which offer plenty of options to suit different needs. The ability to customize email settings and post-submit actions is incredibly useful, making it easy to manage form submissions effectively. The plugin is well-documented and straightforward to use. I’ve had no issues integrating it with my WordPress site, and the support from the development team has been prompt and helpful. Highly recommend this plugin for anyone looking to add professional forms to their WordPress site!
