Biggest opportunity: “arabic”, “keyboard” and “unicode” aren't earning a slot. You list them, but you're not in the first 24 results for those searches. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 10 of 6K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 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.

How it's tracked →Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.
Not enough tracked days yet to call a direction. Momentum needs at least three keywords measured a week or more apart.
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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| sumith your tag | #1 | #1 | 0 |
| arabic your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| keyboard your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| unicode your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| virtual your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

Installing a plugin not only adds functionality, but also increases usage in resources. This plugin is a good tool to help the users to type in Arabic, However, it fails to bring interaction. A user has to use his mouse to type from this virtual keyboard, it would have been wonderful if there was mapped to the physical keyboard as well. In case you are an Arabic site owner and want to display the keyboard on your website then visit this site: https://arabic-keyboard.online and contact them for giving access to the Embed code.
