Biggest opportunity: Swap “mailchimp” and “contact form 7” for “contact form 7 module” and “sms for contact form 7”. “mailchimp” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “contact form 7 module” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “contact form 7” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #11. “sms for contact form 7” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

3.2%

of downloads still active

At least 200K of 6.3M lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Forms plugin keeps 1.3%, across 1,667 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Forms 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 8 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.

    Annoying self-ad for reviews has a bad malfunction! You cannot get rid of it and get redirected to some blank pages or 404 page. If a simple banner cannot be handled right I suggest not using this.

    For redirection it is working good but when redirecting it should bring the existing functionality of displaying success message or failure message then only user will know whether it is successful or not
