Biggest opportunity: Swap “photography” and “woocommerce” for “watermark images” and “tiled”. “photography” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “watermark images” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “tiled” sits at #7 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

How it's measured →3.1%
of downloads still active
At least 1K of 32.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,142 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce 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 16 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.

What to do about it
- Swap “photography” and “woocommerce” for “watermark images” and “tiled”. “photography” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “watermark images” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “tiled” sits at #7 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 “image protection”. #11 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Everything is simple and nothing superfluous, just performs the proper functions
Read on wp.org ↗ - ★★★★★ mohammadnrhi2.9y ago
I have tested all other watermark plugins. They are all the same and have a serious problem!They use WordPress image compressor to watermark the original image.In case they only need to watermark, not compress!That is when WordPress does not compress the original image!Especially the original image does not need to be compressed for watermarking.Compressing only destroys the quality and increases the size of the images! Anyway, can you give me a solution so that ultimate watermark doesn’t do any compression? And just watermark?
