Biggest opportunity: Swap “form builder” and “visitor analytics” for “multi step forms” and “wordpress forms”. “form builder” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “multi step forms” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “visitor analytics” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “wordpress forms” sits at #21 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 →7.4%
of downloads still active
At least 200 of 2.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,668 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Forms plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

What to do about it
- Swap “form builder” and “visitor analytics” for “multi step forms” and “wordpress forms”. “form builder” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “multi step forms” sits at #18 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “visitor analytics” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “wordpress forms” sits at #21 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- Slipping on “attribution”. Down 10 places since 2026-10-02, now #23. Check what shipped around then, and what moved above you.
- Slipping on “utm tracking”. Down 9 places since 2026-09-22, now #23. Check what shipped around then, and what moved above you.
- One page off on “lead tracking”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Estimated active installs
The public count shows “200+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.
Crossed into this band today and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just under 300.
