Biggest opportunity: “dokan”, “list” and “marketplace” 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 70 of 8K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,162 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| dokan lite | #22 | #17 | 0 |
| dokan your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| list your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| marketplace your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| shortcode your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| woocommerce your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

This plugin is really very practical because sorting on Dokkan was not available. Now, thanks to this plugin, this functionality is easy to set up.
