Biggest opportunity: “block editor”, “blocks” and “gutenberg blocks” 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.

How it's measured →1.4%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 7K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Blocks plugin keeps 2.1%, across 1,579 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Blocks plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
Removal-risk signals
53/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 6+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Falling behind WordPress. Tested up to WordPress 5.4.25.

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.

Have been using the plugin for few months now and it seems to be pretty good plugin for gutenberg lovers. Just like a powerpack for gutenberg. Hope such plugins will become part of core soon. Kudos to the swift support by the developers. Such support keeps community live.

As a WP developer, I spend lot of time on div and css. Now Guteblock is really helping me to finish the works on time with perfection and cross-device compatibility. They do have all the important modules a WP website needed. Even a person without knowing codes can build beautiful websites. Highly recommended.
