Biggest opportunity: Swap “community” for “memberships”. “community” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “memberships” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →1.3%
of downloads still active
At least 800 of 61.8K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Membership plugin keeps 0.9%, across 166 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Membership 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 9 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “community” for “memberships”. “community” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “memberships” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “membership”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Reviewer account pattern
from wp.org reviewer profiles15 of the last 24 four- and five-star reviews came from accounts created within a month of posting the review.
Registering a wp.org account just to leave a review is common and often entirely legitimate. The share here is unusually high for the sample, so it's worth keeping in mind while reading the reviews.

I emailed technical support for installation help and went to bed, when I wake up, everything is done. What more would expect from tech support. Thanks guys for “express support”.

I purchased the Membership for WooCommerce Pro plugin from WP Swings, assuming it was part of the official WooCommerce extensions because of how closely it resembles the real ones. It wasn’t until after installation that I discovered it was a third-party product. When I requested a refund within the timeframe listed in their own 30-day policy (14 days after the purchase in my case), their team repeatedly refused, citing irrelevant exceptions. They also tried to persuade me to purchase another plugin from them instead of processing my refund — which felt like a clear attempt to avoid accountability. WP Swings operates from India but presents itself as a U.S.-based business, selling in USD while ignoring the consumer protection and refund norms that North American customers expect. Their products caused unnecessary confusion and wasted time. I would strongly advise anyone to purchase only from WooCommerce.com or other verified marketplaces to ensure legitimate support and fair policies. — N. Nelson (Canada)

Even though I was using the free version, the support team provided exceptional assistance. They were responsive, cooperative, and went beyond expectations. When a technical fix was needed, they offered a custom solution at a very reasonable cost. Truly appreciate the positive attitude and professional service.

Re: membership for woocommerce. Seems like a great service but I am asking for a refund because, despite spending four days trying to get it to work, my customer still can’t get access to restricted pages. I will rewrite this review if I get help to figure this out. I will continue to advertise with my 3K followers on Twitter and FB that this company should be avoided. Customer service is kind but they still don’t seem to understand my request that I continue to make. I have bought this in good faith and now request a refund.
