Biggest opportunity: Swap “pdf viewer” and “flip book” for “wpbakery addon” and “wpbakery”. “pdf viewer” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “wpbakery addon” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “flip book” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #12. “wpbakery” sits at #24 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 →1.1%
of downloads still active
At least 1K of 90.5K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,781 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized 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 1 release 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 “pdf viewer” and “flip book” for “wpbakery addon” and “wpbakery”. “pdf viewer” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “wpbakery addon” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “flip book” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #12. “wpbakery” sits at #24 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 “flip book”. #12 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ hotwebideas6.4y ago
The videos on the website look great and promising. However, when I try to upgrade, there is no link on the website to upgrade even when the plugin itself says you can. Also, I clicked on the verification link in my email and it says “Nothing Was Activated”, so this plugin is unusable at the moment since I don’t like free versions and I was willing to pay to upgrade. I need to get a different flipbook plugin now.

I am thrilled to be using this plugin on my book landing page so people can read a sample which helps them decide if they want to buy the full version of the book on Amazon. It’s professional and the shortcode generator in the backend provides great features, even in the free version. With great appreciation for the plugin author. Thank you so much.
