Biggest opportunity: Add “extra” to your wp.org tags. You rank #18 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed it's a slot worth spending.
Not scored yet. Nobody has reviewed this plugin, so a grade would come from directory averages rather than from anything measured here.
Install conversion
How it's measured →7.3%
of downloads still active
At least 10K of 137.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Content & Feeds plugin keeps 0.8%, across 867 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Content & Feeds 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 12 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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| solace your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| extra | #18 | #22 | down 1 |
| import your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| kit your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| template your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
24 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 22 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- Add “extra” to your wp.org tags. You rank #18 for it without listing it, close enough for a declared tag to move you up. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so with 4 listed it's a slot worth spending.
