Biggest opportunity: Swap “interactive map”, “svg map” and “hotspots” for “floor plans”, “panorama viewer” and “animal”. “interactive map” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “floor plans” sits at #14 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “svg map” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #19. “panorama viewer” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “hotspots” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #18. “animal” sits at #18 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 →1.5%
of downloads still active
At least 70 of 4.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,767 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.
This plugin shipped 41 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.
