POD sellers - Stop using ugly, overused, bland, and default mock-ups that BLEND into Etsy search pages! Canva is a great resource for adding your own awesome backgrounds, props, and realistic shadows to product photos that actually fit your niche. #etsy #etsyPOD

🐆 It may be a keyword… but is it a LONG tail keyword? 🐆 SPOT the difference: Does your keyword describe something specific?  If it’s something only your ideal customer would search for, you’ve hit gold. Example: ‘Floral dog collar for large breed dogs.’ 🎯  #Etsy #EtsySEO

Make Your Descriptions Skimmable! Because no one likes brain overload, especially your Etsy shoppers. 🖋️ Break up your text with headers, bullet points or emojis and short paragraphs. Shoppers are often in a hurry and won’t read a giant block of text. Remember - simple is best!

📦 Shoppers love quick delivery. Offering shorter processing times (where possible) can give you a boost in Etsy’s search results, especially when shoppers are filtering for items that ship quickly. It’s also a major selling point for last-minute buyers around specific holidays!
