V., thank you for letting me know that link no longer goes to a Google keyword tool, so I removed that link and added a little box with a link to a post here on Jewelry Making Journal where the discussion includes other suggestions for coming up with keywords. Thanks again! 🙂

You can buy ads there. It doesn’t tell you what search keywords people are using to get to your site.

Perhaps it used to link to that?
If there is indeed a Google service that tells you what search keywords people are using to get to your site, I’d love to have the link. It would be very helpful.

I do have a blog, (address shown above) and an Etsy shop. etsy.com/shop/embellishedcharms. I get discouraged once in a while. When I do, I go to the Forums and ask a question. The information helps me, and people start going to my shop to see what I do. I don’t feel so alone, then. I hear success stories like yours, and strive to do more. Thank you for your information. What a great success story!

I have to pay closer attention to using those keywords throughout everything I write. Always a work in progress. 😉

The last 2-3 months had been very slow sales wise, so I am exploring other ways to do sales physically (craft shows, trunk shows etc.) I am honestly a bit disappointed with my sales on Etsy right now. But maybe I just need to work harder on tweaking my shop such as updating my photos, really work on my SEO and make more treasuries. Thanks for the inspiring post!

Carole — I know that making the treasuries really helped me to visualize how my photos stood up to others’. It was very eye opening! And yes … patience, and continually improving your shop WILL pay off. (But you can’t just sit and wait … 🙂

I will be working on my photos again today as well as building up my inventory. I like the idea of a private treasury to see how my pictures stand up to others. Thanks too for reminding us that hard work will eventually pay off!

My etsy shop is just not profitable and I am never exactly sure what to do about it, these hints will be very helpful. Appreciate you sharing.

I can see where you changed your shop photos and how sales started picking up. So nice of you to share your shop and how you did it and that it can really work, thanks!

I too was overwhelmed with all that one has to keep in mind for online sales. I am happy to share what I’ve learned and thrilled to hear that it was helpful to someone else! ♥Linda

I have been selling my jewelry online and at shows for about 6 months & have recently begun the process of opening up a supplies shop online too. Your ideas, suggestions and information has helped to clear the “clutter” from my brain and I feel as if I will actually get the supplies shop up and running this week!! Thanks again & remember to always enjoy being Uniquely You!!

Thank you. I sell on Artfire and Zibbet but the rules are basically the same in any online marketplace. I work very hard on my photos, facebook, twitter, Pinterest , tags and there is always so much more to learn. Congratulations on your sales!

Clearly written and to the point. Not to mention, my personal discomfort with using and utter inability to come up with creative titles is finally justified and validated by someone else: they don’t work (can’t work) when someone is trying to find you and what you’re selling. Thank you, Linda, so very, very much.
