Biggest opportunity: “custom post type”, “page administration” and “utils” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 30 of 3.2K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,774 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| custom post type your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| page administration your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| utils your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

I’ve been using this plugin for quite some time–a couple of years now I think. I love it. With 300+ pages on my website, and lots of hierarchies, having a visual reference is really handy. Thank you for this. It makes my job much easier when I’m in the back-end of my site. I find it kind of strange that more people haven’t used plugin.
