of downloads still active
At least 20K of 184.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,773 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.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| seed | #2 | #2 | 0 |
| webfont your tag | #24 | #12 | down 4 |
| @font face embed your tag | Not checked yet | ||
| typography your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| web fonts your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
6 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 4 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 2 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Under-ranked on “webfont”. wp.org puts you #24; on merit you place #12. The plugins above you are winning on install count, not on rating or upkeep.
- “typography” and “web fonts” 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.
- Already on top for “seed”. #2 without listing it. A tag would change little there; your slots are better spent on a search you don't yet win.

Release cadence
