Biggest opportunity: Swap “form builder” for “fieldset”. “form builder” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “fieldset” sits at #9 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 →0.2%
of downloads still active
At least 20 of 8.2K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,667 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.
This plugin shipped 23 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.

Estimated active installs
The public count shows “20+”. 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 30.

Hey there! I recently came across the Simple Form Plugin and I just had to share my experience with you. It’s an absolute lifesaver for anyone needing to create forms quickly and easily. The drag-and-drop interface is incredibly intuitive, making the whole process a breeze. Plus, the lead collection feature is seamless, helping me gather valuable contacts effortlessly. And let’s not forget about the social media redirection after form submission – it’s a fantastic way to drive engagement. Trust me, this plugin is a must-have!

After a while, I tried another plugin from the same author and was impressed, particularly with the user-friendly floating widgets and leads send to slack features. Most of the features, including many fields, are available for free, making it a great choice.
