Biggest opportunity: “analytics” isn't earning a slot. You list it, but you're not in the first 24 results for that search. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.

of downloads still active
At least 6K of 65.3K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Analytics plugin keeps 1.2%, across 1,011 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Analytics 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 1 release 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
- “analytics” isn't earning a slot. You list it, but you're not in the first 24 results for that search. WordPress.org counts only your first five tags, so free the slot for a search you can win.
- Already on top for “client”. #3 without listing it. A tag would change little there; your slots are better spent on a search you don't yet win.

Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.

Hi, Loves this plugin, it’s simplicity and the fact that it’s open to custom extensions development. Plus, it’s on GitHub <3 Thank you!

I stumbled across this plugin my accident and I am very glad I did. I am replacing all of my current reporting with this. Client reporting is one of the things that I offer my clients, and I have never been satisfied with the reports, until now! I highly recommend this plugin.

WordPress websites – even sites that aren’t changing or adding content on a daily basis – can have a lot going on under the hood. If site maintenance is part of your business or job, WP Client Reports is a clean, easy-to-use tool that lets you quickly ship out periodic reports that track plugin, theme and core updates. And for internal troubleshooting, WP Client Reports is a reference point for your plugin updating history.

My clients don’t understand the volume of maintenance work I did for them recently…Until now!!! Once configured, WP Client Reports is the perfect tool to let my clients know all the awesome stuff I’ve been doing for them over the past month! With a few clicks, I’m able to send them an email documenting all the plugin updates, theme upgrades, form submissions/conversions, uptime, Mailchimp email sent, and more that I’ve completed over the past month! It’s the best all-in-one tool I’ve found for this sort of reporting. Highly-recommend!!
