Biggest opportunity: Swap “image maps” for “annotate”. “image maps” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “annotate” sits at #6 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 →2.5%
of downloads still active
At least 2K of 80.4K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,771 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 7 releases 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.

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.

What to do about it
- Swap “image maps” for “annotate”. “image maps” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #16. “annotate” sits at #6 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 “image maps”. #16 puts you just past the first ten results, where almost all the clicks stop. The gap to close is small.

Permisions was not what I expected for my workflow and Max from support solved it. Thanks!

The support is excellent! The Vision plugin is a gret plugin and I will recommend it at anytime

I have tried all the image hotspot plugins I could put my hands to, like 8 or 9. They where either too expensive or not as functional as this one, and some were very disappointing. This one is truly the best, the price is fair, documentation is just the basics, but support is awesome! I use it with the Brizy builder, and works as a charm. I am glad I found it.
