Biggest opportunity: Swap “order management” for “tracking number”. “order management” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #13. “tracking number” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 3K of 430.9K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Analytics plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,009 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Analytics 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 10 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “order management” for “tracking number”. “order management” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #13. “tracking number” sits at #5 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 “order management”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

We love this plugin and our customers love it too. We adapted it to our business and it really works 10/10. Customer service is fast and efficient. We would love to not be able to duplicate manual orders based on the order number, otherwise it’s perfect!
