Biggest opportunity: Swap “woocommerce reports” for “goods”. “woocommerce reports” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “goods” sits at #7 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 →0.4%
of downloads still active
At least 200 of 49K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.3%, across 4,993 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.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| cost of goods your tag | #2 | #15 | 0 |
| cost of goods sold | #2 | #16 | 0 |
| goods | #7 | #23 | down 2 |
| woocommerce cost of goods | #3 | #20 | up 1 |
| profit report your tag | #9 | #20 | 0 |
| profit margin your tag | #9 | #18 | down 1 |
| cost | #12 | #21 | 0 |
| cogs your tag | #14 | #23 | down 1 |
| no cost | #16 | #22 | 0 |
| woocommerce cogs | #24 | #24 | 0 |
| woocommerce reports your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
28 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 10 listed. 18 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 1 of its tags isn't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Swap “woocommerce reports” for “goods”. “woocommerce reports” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “goods” sits at #7 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 “cogs”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

I’m giving 5 stars to boost this new plugin, not because its perfect, far from it, but its great start, and want to stimulate author to improve it further. I have been looking for a plugin like this for a long time, finally… Pros, Plugin is very light and generates reports surprisingly fast, integrates without any problems on our woo-commerce store with more than 5k products. Wish list: Option to Calculate the profit from price inclusive of tax. Ad more customization options Ad more reports and graphs Ad option to see profit generated from certain customer. Export to CVS option
