Biggest opportunity: Swap “elementor” and “elementor addons” for “news magazine” and “element”. “elementor” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “news magazine” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “elementor addons” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “element” sits at #15 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 →3.8%
of downloads still active
At least 400 of 10.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Page Builders plugin keeps 2.4%, across 1,265 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Page Builders plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
