Biggest opportunity: Swap “xml” and “feed to post” for “rss feed” and “rss reader”. “xml” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “rss feed” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “feed to post” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #11. “rss reader” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

0.7%

of downloads still active

At least 10K of 1.4M lifetime downloads are still running, in line with its category: the median Content & Feeds plugin keeps 0.8%, across 863 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Content & Feeds 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 3 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.
