Biggest opportunity: Swap “giveaways” for “viral”. “giveaways” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “viral” sits at #21 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 23.6K lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Email & Marketing plugin keeps 0.9%, across 1,295 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Email & Marketing 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.
| Keyword | wp.org | On merit | wp.org move, 90 days |
|---|---|---|---|
| viral marketing your tag | #10 | #23 | 0 |
| sweepstakes your tag | #10 | #17 | up 1 |
| viral | #21 | #24 | 0 |
| giveaways your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| referral marketing your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| referrals your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
5 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 3 listed. 2 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words). 3 of its tags aren't in the top 24 for their own search.

Built a Tempting Giveaway campaign in Viral Loops, installed this plugin, and… it doesn’t provide an option for the Form Widget. Only the pop-up. I don’t want a pop-up on my site. So it’s not possible to install the Form on my site. Great.
