Biggest opportunity: Swap “payment” and “payment gateway” for “eshop” and “mtn mobile money”. “payment” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “eshop” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “payment gateway” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mtn mobile money” sits at #23 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 →0.7%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 14.5K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Payments plugin keeps 1.0%, across 1,043 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Payments plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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.

What to do about it
- Swap “payment” and “payment gateway” for “eshop” and “mtn mobile money”. “payment” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “eshop” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “payment gateway” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “mtn mobile money” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- Under-ranked on “momo”. wp.org puts you #20; on merit you place #5. The plugins above you are winning on install count, not on rating or upkeep.
- Under-ranked on “mtn”. wp.org puts you #22; on merit you place #6. The plugins above you are winning on install count, not on rating or upkeep.
- One page off on “mtn momo”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
