Biggest opportunity: Swap “contact form” for “email validator”. “contact form” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “email validator” sits at #23 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

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.

Following spam activity on my contact form I was looking for an email validation plugin to use. I was able to install and use this plugin within minutes, able to enter the email field used by theme and all worked. Have been running with it for a while and the spam has dropped considerably. Thanks!
