Biggest opportunity: “custom post types”, “notifications” and “posts” 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.

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 |

| notifications your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| posts your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||
| subscribe your tag | Not in the top 24 | ||

Great plugin that does exactly what it promises. Setting up subscriptions for posts, categories, and custom post types is simple, and the user dashboard makes managing subscriptions easy. I also like that email notifications can be customized and all subscriber data stays in the WordPress database. A solid solution for keeping visitors updated with new content.

Really useful plugin and very easy to set up. I like how it works with custom post types and taxonomies without extra configuration. The subscription buttons and email notifications work smoothly, and the user dashboard is a nice touch. Great plugin for keeping visitors engaged!
