Biggest opportunity: “powerpoint”, “ppt” and “slide” 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.

of downloads still active
At least 200 of 13.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Social plugin keeps 0.5%, across 1,276 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Social plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 13+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.
- Compatibility drift. Tested only up to WordPress 3.6.1, well behind 6.8.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| powerpoint your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| ppt your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| slide your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| slide online your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| slide share your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

This tool easy to use & very helpul,But i want to ask data limit of PPT ??

Where is support? Why doesn’t the lost password reset send an email (none received to any of my email addresses). Why aren’t my usernames recognized? My first account’s slides uploaded, converted fine, & then failed to load from the WordPress embed a week later. I had to re-sign up with a new username, uploaded my slides again, they got converted, & now same thing, can’t log in, can’t reset password, no response from the contact tool—which just reset to the same form when you submit. NO contact information on their social media links or blog. This comes off as a scam.

Was having problems with GDE where my presentations were coming up w/an error of taking too long to load. Alternatively, I went to SlideOnline.com, created the free account, uploaded the presentation and had the short code w/in minutes. Much more presentable than GDE too. For a free service, it’s a great replacement & alternative to GDE for PowerPoint Presentations!
