Biggest opportunity: Swap “woocommerce”, “woocommerce add states” and “woocommerce states” for “locations”, “provinces” and “france”. “woocommerce” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “locations” sits at #6 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce add states” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “provinces” sits at #8 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “woocommerce states” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “france” sits at #12 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 →1.9%
of downloads still active
At least 800 of 43K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,149 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.
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.

Awesome, gives the functionality that is required to woocommerce shipping to different parts of France and UK (as well as other countries) Need to add simply code to functions.php to force use of state/county but works like a dream, thank you Dan.
