Biggest opportunity: One page off on “toc”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

of downloads still active
At least 60 of 1.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median SEO plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,196 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other SEO plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| toc your tag | #14 | #22 | down 1 |
| wordpress toc | #14 | #23 | down 1 |
| accordion your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| rank math your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| seo your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| table of contents your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
4 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 2 listed. 2 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 4 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.
What to do about it
- One page off on “toc”. #14 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.
- “accordion”, “rank math” and “seo” 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.

Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.
What its installed base runs

TOC Accordion for Rank Math is the perfect addition for anyone who wants to make their table of contents elegantly collapsible. Installation is a breeze, and the result looks professional. I especially like that you can choose whether the TOC is open or closed by default. A clear recommendation for more clarity and a clean design! Tip: Add a small spacer before and after placing it in the article.
