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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | Change |

What to do about it
- Add “jq” to your wp.org tags. You already rank #10 for it without listing it. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so it's a slot worth spending.
