Biggest opportunity: “chat”, “click to chat” and “whatsapp” 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 800 of 23.7K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Chat & Support plugin keeps 0.8%, across 629 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Chat & Support plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

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 |

| click to chat your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| whatsapp your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

I Installed on a demo site, fast, easy, intuitive and was up and running in 3-5mins. No real glitches, lots of REAL value for our team… sales, admin and support. Very Impressed and knowing it’s early days, I look forward to all the new additions coming soon.

Hi, Great work! The plugin works well, and it is visually very nice, but it is not fully compatible with Divi theme. When the visual builder is open, you can not see the link to close it after you make changes on the pages and posts. If you could fix this, it would be a great improvement 🙂 Thank you, anyway!
