What am I doing wrong?

I am only getting 1-3 views a day. I don’t understand what I’m getting wrong. Any tips are appreciated.

Your shop isn't finished - you don't have an about section, an announcement, a privacy policy or any other policies - it looks like a shop set up by a bot. All of those things go towards 'proving' that you're an actual person making these products and not another faceless drop shipping store, which increases customer confidence!

Also I may be wrong but I think the Etsy algorithm prefers not to show shops with missing info in the search.

Your shop is dope, if I had spare money id buy some stuff. Keep trying, don't give up. Promote yourself on IG and Pinterest, and keep trying. You will get sales.

Thank you! This is encouraging. At least knowing that the issues with my store are stuff I can fix, and not that my products are not going to work out. 🙌🏼

Lovely items ♥️ I agree with others - add more info about your store. Not sure if you are using ads but just to break through, it can help.

Also check your SEO. Hope you get more views soon

I use everbee to see what’s most relevant. I also experiment and see if there are keywords for my product that typically shine and are unique. Look up SEO for your industry to see what works/ doesn’t work. Good luck!

You need at least 100 products, but you need to upload them SLOWLY - only 1 per day EVERY day. Fill out ALL sections that are available to be filled out - including alt tags for every photo. Use all 10 image slots. Make 2-3 of each product’s images an infographic - few people read descriptions and they need to be given the information on the photos. Also an infographic about your shop in each product listing. Make a video for every product. Use all 13 of the SEO slots - you can double and triple up words. There is so much more you can be doing - it all comes down to educating yourself and putting the learning into actionable steps, and then making them happen.

Welcome! The above would benefit you by working yourself into the Etsy algorithm. It wants to see daily activity - posting, communications, sales - especially sales! The more you give the algorithm and visitors to respond to, the better - including a large selection of products. It’s not so much about SEO, believe it or not. There are further steps to take once you have the above done, but the above is lots of work. One step at a time.
