Biggest opportunity: Add “view” to your wp.org tags. You rank #24 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 1 listed it's a slot worth spending.

of downloads still active
At least 400 of 26.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 944 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 8 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| list view | #2 | #5 | 0 |
| google calendar your tag | #11 | #20 | up 2 |
| view | #24 | #19 | down 3 |
| google v3 | #12 | #17 | down 3 |
| list id | #19 | #19 | 0 |
| to do list | #24 | #22 | down 1 |
23 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 6 listed. 17 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).
What to do about it
- Add “view” to your wp.org tags. You rank #24 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 1 listed it's a slot worth spending.
- One page off on “google calendar”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
