Biggest opportunity: Swap “load time”, “seo” and “yoast” for “removal”, “attribute” and “type”. “load time” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “removal” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “seo” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “attribute” sits at #16 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “yoast” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “type” sits at #19 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 →11%
of downloads still active
At least 900 of 7.9K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median SEO plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,192 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other SEO plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

The plugin really works very well , Installed and remove all the type attribute warnings it really helps to improve w3c code standard

Works good! Thanks
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Website Rob5.6y ago
Well done plugin. Does two things, does them well and no errors are created. Also means no need for any Admin Settings so it’s Plug n’ Play. Bonus! There is something though that could/should be corrected for the sake of semantics. Results are: <script > & <style > There is a blank space after the element name which should be removed. Perhaps next update? 🙂
