The products you sell may go by many names! 🥔🍟 📋 When you’re unsure of which keywords to use in your listings, I recommend using eRank’s Keyword Lists tool to save and compare keywords for different listings, seasons, products, or marketing campaigns. #etsy #etsyseo #erank #handmadealphas

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!

🔍  Keyword popularity changes all the time. Double check the search volumes of your most popular keywords every 3-6 months to keep your listings optimized and ready for trending searches.

Hot-Take: Your singular experiments are not scientifically conclusive and should not be used as evidence to support general best practices for other businesses. 🙃 #etsyseo #etsymyth #etsytips

📦 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!

⚖️ Are you sure you’re using the BEST keywords for your product? Before you commit to a keyword, compare it against similar terms in eRank’s Compare Keywords tool. Find the one with the best balance of searches, clicks, and competition! #etsyseo #etsy #etsyseller
