Biggest opportunity: Swap “card” and “email” for “phpmail” and “greeting cards”. “card” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “phpmail” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “email” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “greeting cards” sits at #9 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 50 of 35.9K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Email & Marketing plugin keeps 0.9%, across 1,294 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.
