Biggest opportunity: Swap “swatches”, “variations” and “woo” for “easypost”, “radio” and “variations radio”. “swatches” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “easypost” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “variations” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “radio” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woo” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “variations radio” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 200 of 29.7K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,139 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.

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.

Totally found this plugin by a fortunate accident as it is little used, but it’s the best free radio buttons plugin for WC variations that I have tried, and I think I’ve tried them all. I’m using the Divi theme v.4.10.7 with WP 5.8.1 and WC 5.6.0 and this one changes the product gallery images when you click through the variations, unlike another of the free plugins that no longer does. Thanks One Team Software, it’s appreciated.
