Biggest opportunity: Swap “contact form” for “contact form builder”. “contact form” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #13. “contact form builder” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

Install conversion
How it's measured →8.5%
of downloads still active
At least 500K of 5.9M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,668 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 37 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “contact form” for “contact form builder”. “contact form” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #13. “contact form builder” sits at #5 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 “contact form”. #13 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

This made creating a contact form very easy.
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ Thomas Marx6mo ago
Until then, I had been using SureForm on some websites and a different product on others. Then I decided to switch 100% to SureForms because I’m extremely satisfied with it. After installation, I was able to use the SureForms AI assistant to copy screenshots and data from my old forms and transfer them to the AI assistant. It read the information and created excellent forms that only required minor adjustments. This allowed me to essentially migrate my existing forms to SureForms. Wonderful—I was pleasantly surprised and highly satisfied.
