Biggest opportunity: “alerts”, “email” and “login” 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 5.7K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median Email & Marketing plugin keeps 0.9%, across 1,295 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.
High removal-risk signals
63/100Maintenance and integrity signals that tend to precede a WordPress.org removal. Not an official status, a heads-up to act.
- Long abandoned. No update in 12+ years — the top precursor to removal once a vulnerability is found.

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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| alerts your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| digip your tag | Not checked yet | ||
| email your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| login your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| security your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

Directory rank
Ranked about #30,100 to #45,000, alongside the other plugins at 10+ installs. Plugins with the same install count swap places between wp.org requests, so this is where most of them sit. Checked monthly, last on 21 Oct 2026.
Update activity
Downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites.
Not enough installs to measure. This needs at least 100 active sites; below that, a handful of downloads reads as tens of thousands.
Release cadence
No release in a yearHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

got a whole bunch of errors that prevented me logging in. had to FTP to remove the plugin. unclear if a version issue, or my site, or plugin. ironically, i was emailed to tell me that i was trying to log in!

Nice and simple, does exactly what it says. I agree with the suggestions by @2020media and would also like to have a white list, so I didn’t get notified of my own login. But I can live with it the way it is. Thanks very much.

Very good plugin – works exactly as described. A couple of suggestions for improvement: 1. Select which admin user is emailed (allow multiple?) 2. Allow customisation of text in email
