Biggest opportunity: Swap “image seo” and “meta description” for “technical seo” and “seo automation”. “image seo” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “technical seo” sits at #20 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “meta description” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “seo automation” sits at #24 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 →2.2%
of downloads still active
At least 100 of 4.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median SEO plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,193 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.
This plugin shipped 22 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.

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 “image seo” and “meta description” for “technical seo” and “seo automation”. “image seo” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “technical seo” sits at #20 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “meta description” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “seo automation” sits at #24 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
- One page off on “artificial intelligence”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Directory rank
Ranked about #13,300 to #16,400, alongside the other plugins at 100+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 21 Oct 2026.
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.
Release cadence
Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated active installs
The public count shows “100+”. Our estimate pins where the real number sits.
Crossed into this band 4 days ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 100.

I used SEO Magic to bulk edit images and meta tags, and it really works like magic. So much, I even had Gemini come up with a plugin to bulk delete old and simply wrong meta data from older imports, just to let SEO Magic have a go at it. What should I say, much better results. I tried AIOSEO for the same job, but SEO Magic works a lot better for half the price! One factor: Gemini produces much more engaging texts than ChatGPT. And the author of this plugin is absolutely right in his blog: as I have a paid Gemini account anyway, why bother with the credits system of other plugins? Especially when they underperform. I had two issues with the plugin, but the author solved them in no time at all! Top service, super fast! This plugin is my absolute recommendation if you want to bulk edit SEO meta data in images, categories an so on. Keep up the good work!
