Biggest opportunity: Swap “image optimizer”, “security” and “seo” for “throttle”, “snippets” and “toolkit”. “image optimizer” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “throttle” sits at #11 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “security” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “snippets” sits at #14 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “seo” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “toolkit” 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 →2.6%
of downloads still active
At least 10K of 380.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Security plugin keeps 1.4%, across 1,059 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Security 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 47 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.

I think that in the coming months, there will be a lot of talk about Nexter Extension. This is what FSE in WordPress should have been. Where it sets itself apart from traditional FSE is that it works on CPTs and all their related content. As for the theme, it’s super-optimized and very lightweight, with just what’s necessary to be used with the plugin Thank you very much for this great plugin, and I encourage the entire POSIMYTH team.

I’ve been using this theme for a year now, and I’m impressed by the continuous updates that keep improving it. It’s perfect for simple websites and landing pages, and I’m confident it will become even better for WooCommerce in the future. A small suggestion: it would be great to see some pre-made website templates included. Keep up the great work!

The support team behind this exceptional plugin is outstanding. In our interactions, we received numerous tips and tricks that have made a significant difference for us. We’ve been able to deactivate many other plugins because of the comprehensive options this one offers. I do hope they continue to improve the design, as it has the potential to be even better.
