Biggest opportunity: “articulate”, “presenter” and “rise” 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 2K of 139.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,783 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized 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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| articulate your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| presenter your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| quizmaker your tag | Not checked yet | ||
| rise your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| storyline your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
0 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days. 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Release cadence

premium license holder here. license stopped working (similar to what other 1 star reviewers have posted). Plugin developer does not respond to support. Brian (developer) took the $ and ran. AVOID THIS PLUGIN AND DEVELOPER.

A life-saver when working on my portfolio
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ mpservices3.1y ago
The plugin initially worked fine, but later users started complaining that course progress is sometimes not saved.The problem is most likely to occur if the user accesses the site from two different devices. There is no support for the plugin, no one ever responds to feedback for license purchasers.
