Biggest opportunity: “easy responsive tabs”, “shortcodes” and “wp ecommerce woocommerce” 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 30 of 9K lifetime downloads are still running, below its category: the median eCommerce plugin keeps 1.4%, across 5,154 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other eCommerce 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 1 release 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.

All reviews on wp.org ↗- ★★★★★ azlivin00810.3y ago
+ Works well with shortcodes inside the tabs – No icon options in title – No direct linking to tabs or tab as links to urls – Styling is very generic, and I did not find the option to customize css as shown in the screenshots – Tab metaboxes disappeared after publishing the page, so there was no way to edit existing tabs after publishing the page.

This plugin can be used for all kind of shortcodes and static content.
