Biggest opportunity: Swap “hls” for “hls streaming”. “hls” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “hls streaming” sits at #17 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.
Not scored yet. Nobody has reviewed this plugin, so a grade would come from directory averages rather than from anything measured here.
