Biggest opportunity: Swap “appointment booking”, “booking calendar” and “woocommerce booking” for “vehicle booking”, “car booking” and “restaurant booking”. “appointment booking” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “vehicle booking” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “booking calendar” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “car booking” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce booking” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “restaurant booking” sits at #15 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 200 of 15.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 944 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events 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 “appointment booking”, “booking calendar” and “woocommerce booking” for “vehicle booking”, “car booking” and “restaurant booking”. “appointment booking” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “vehicle booking” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “booking calendar” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “car booking” sits at #12 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce booking” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “restaurant booking” sits at #15 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 “service booking”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

I’ve been using the Service Booking & Scheduling Solution plugin for a while now, and the latest version is truly a game-changer! The new updates have made the booking process smoother, faster, and more intuitive.

I have tried multiple booking plugins before, but none come close to the Service Booking & Scheduling Solution! The latest update has taken it to the next level.

Trying to configure booking for a salon. This plugin looks nothing like the Salon Booking demo that they have on their site. Their sites are a mess spread over mutiple domains with no coherent order and there is no documentation for implementing salon booking.
