You are brilliant! I’m watched your 2024 video and implemented the techniques as I was struggling with SEO, at the time I only had around 300 sales. Now a year after putting your method into places I’m now sitting at over 2,000 sales! Your SEO technique is the best out there so all I can say is thank you! 🎉

[@etsyconsultant]

Amazing, thanks for letting me know!

[@КатеринаЧеркасская-у7я]

The information in this video is very much appreciated, its priceless, it saved a LOT of my time and gave me strength and confidence in my first steps on Etsy. Now I understand how the most important things work on Etsy. I’m very thankful!❤🎉

[@etsyconsultant]

You're very welcome!

[@Artbyjenuine]

Thank you SO much for breaking it down like that, extremely helpful! I can’t wait to implement it on my shop 😊

[@etsyconsultant]

Glad it was helpful!

[@realmf85]

Okay, I just say it out loud: your channel is maybe the best Etsy source on KZbin. No bullshitting, no SEO tool promotion. I'm just 4 month in the Etsy game (digital prints of my own photos) and at the beginning I listened to everyone that made a video. But the 10 minutes SEO game is mucho sympatico! I learned so much in the last few month, especially from you. I'm now at 66 listings and 20 orders. Not soooo bad in my opinion. Heading strong towards the 100 listings goal and hopefully my sales will go up further. 🙏 Thanks again! Martin

[@etsyconsultant]

Thanks for the feedback, and I am glad you are selling, 66 listings and 20 orders is way above average, good job!

[@CraftyForestStudio]

@etsyconsultant I also discovered if you do a search on google for related words for your item then you can get some more anchor words.

[@gilmerpuckett5727]

I have been watching and implementing your videos for a few years now and it has helped tremendously! I would Love to see an example of apparels or something if you ever have the time! Ik this is a huge niche but as you even mentioned no one else will give advice unless you pay them thousands but even then i do not feel as if they even know or they hold back the actual facts! Thank you so so much!

[@gotchagr]

Amazing! You explained Etsy SEO 2025 in so much detail that I've never seen the last month I've been working on my Etsy shop (again). I opened it in 2020 selling mugs but it didn't go well, so I abandoned it. In the last 20 days, I restarted it again selling posters and digital prints. I have tod42 listings today only two sales so far! I'll try to open some listings following your directions to see the difference if you don't mind me asking. Also, you just got a new subscriber. Thank you. I will check out your other videos too. I have only one question: here at 29:00 you are suggesting possible titles. As I can see, it may be too long to include them in our title (max 140 ch). Every title is standalone or our title may be a combination of all possible keywords?

[@janeleigh8955]

[@etsyconsultant]

No problem Jane, thanks for watching.

[@pioshelby7611]

If you have only one or two anchor words but more descriptive words, can you repeat the anchor words in more than one set of words?

[@dawnmarie240]

Thank you for breaking it down like this. My brain needed this 😊

[@etsyconsultant]

No problem at all, I am glad it helps.

[@luxuryfurniture8228]

That was excellent advice thank you. 😊😊Mags, Ireland

[@etsyconsultant]

No problem Mags, good to have you here.

[@lucidlynx]

Nik, regarding the tags: would you reccommend splitting keywords like 'flower field' for example into two separate tags i.e 'flower' and 'field', or just use a single tag for both? Thank you so much for your wonderful video, I learned a lot from you over the past few months and I wish you all the best!

[@kaegi69]

Same question: what about long tail keywords in tags?

[@JayParanagama]

@@kaegi69 check out his 2024 video with the same title. He says not to worry too much about long tail and short tail keywords. Just get in as many keywords as you can and Etsy will do the work for you :)

[@vladyslavanakonechna7693]

Are u recommend use one word tag from or construct from phrase from them (like title)? Sorry I don’t understand that moment. Thank you for video!

[@etsyconsultant]

Hi, just fill your tags with words from your five W's list, put as many words in each tag that can fit, they don't need to make sense.

[@Jacqueline-sy2vv]

Hello again, I have a shop that is doing well and now want to open another one. I have a store that has been idle with no listings in it for the past year. Can I open it up again as a new shop selling digital products as a fresh new shop with a a changed shop name to make it relevant or should I open a brand new shop.

[@didex_]

Thank you so much for the video. Do plurals matter in tags? Meaning if I'm selling digital cliparts, should I try to use clipart and cliparts, Illustration and Illustrations, etc?

[@etsyconsultant]

@@didex_ Hi, no problem. No, plurals do not matter.

[@jeffreywalsh817]

What about picture descriptions? Any boost from those?

[@etsyconsultant]

Not from inside Etsy, no.

[@devinjansa9329]

I’m going to give this a try, my shop is very art related, we do stickers and prints right now, but want to expand to more merch kind of products, earrings, tote bags, pins, etc. how well does this strategy work for more niche sellers? The title part makes sense, but when the item itself is rather generic, but the specificities of the print or design on the item is what is being sold, does this advice for tags still help?

[@realmf85]

Hi, it's me again. 😅 Just one quick question...If I alread added the "room" attributes for my digital prints, is it helpful to use terms like "living room", "office" and so on again in the tag section? Etsy says it mix and matches attributes with title and tags, so I think its a waste of keyword space? But maybe I just add other possible rooms I could'nt check (because I can just choose 5 rooms in the attributes section) like "nursery" or "guest house". What do you say? 🙂 Thanks in advance for your help!

[@lschiz-photography1765]

You are Absolutely the best, most wise and logical help and advice ever, ever!! All others are crazy seo, you tube guru fools who’s primary goal is to cash in on selling to me their answer to Etsy and making a killing on obsession w data. Thank you for sharing so freely such incredible wise simple and helpful instruction. WOW Sincerely Scott

[@etsyconsultant]

No problem Scott, I am glad this was helpful.

[@ambertheprofessional]

I am really intrigued by the "tags" section of this video, however I have some questions you didn't touch on. How exactly are we supposed to include these keywords into our tags? For instance, are we only inputting: #chef, #anniversary... Or do we need to be using terms like #giftforchef #anniversarygift?

[@uneekshops]

Another great video just a quick dumb question you said you use commas separating the key word sets in you titles i use dashes is that ok also?

[@etsyconsultant]

Yes, that's fine.

[@rusapenarts]

Thank you for all the info!! I'm hoping to dust off my Etsy that I made years ago but didn't do anything with. Will that make it hard for me or should I abandon it and create a new store? Edit: I'll be selling customized fountain pens if that helps at all?

[@lynseyglover4006]

Thanks for this! So let’s say my item is good for a birthday gift, can I have say (18th, 21st, 30th birthday) as one tag?

[@etsyconsultant]

Yes you can!

[@lynseyglover4006]

@ thank you!

[@ambertheprofessional]

Does the separator symbol have to be a common, or can you use other symbols like the bullet point... For instance: Butterfly Letter Locket Necklace • Handmade Gold-Plated Gemstone Necklace

[@etsyconsultant]

Hi, yes you can do this, no problem. Just remember you lose 1 character space each time you do this versus a comma.

[@joesaint8142]

Hi nick, Does updating mock ups, videos and SEO count towards recency or do you have to upload a product everyday? Thank you!

[@etsyconsultant]

Every time you press publish you are technically being recent, however here are the 3 main parts to recency in order of importance top to bottom: 1: Sales 2: Listing new products 3: Making changes to listings

[@joesaint8142]

@@etsyconsultant Hero, thank you!

[@etsyconsultant]

No problem.

[@leahli3151]

I have a question about crossmatch. Is it just tags crossmatch or title and tags crossmatch with each other? For example, title: abcde, tag: fghigk, if customers search abf, cgh, will my listing be displayed? Thanks.

[@beansterp]

Super useful as always, thank you! Just to be sure; once you've integrated your anchor keywords into your title, there is no point to also use or combine those same anchor words for your tags? (that is kind of what I've been doing for the past year, whoops)

[@etsyconsultant]

Correct, no need.

[@ImageByZga]

I have a question because I’m a bit stuck and would really appreciate some guidance. I sell PNG designs for print-on-demand, but I’m struggling to understand how to approach anchor points. Should I create the anchor based on the product itself (PNG) or the theme (e.g., Valentine’s Day, Halloween, etc.)? For example, in a scrapbook listing, the anchor seems to focus on the product type. However, since I’m selling the same type of product (PNG) but with different themes, should the anchor point be focused on the product or the theme? After all, every listing I create is ultimately used for the same purpose-print-on-demand, print-on-cards, and so on. Any advice would be really helpful. Thank you!

[@virtualtherapy7040]

In your example, "Scrapbook" is the anchor keyword. As he said, if you work in a specific niche, you can reuse 70 percent of the keywords throughout the listings.

[@deanneovermeyer4314]

Ive just redone all my photos now time to go through SEO, fimd it so difficult as have 95 bracelet listings so most words are the same...wish me luck 😊

[@etsyconsultant]

Good luck Deanne, remember to try to 'find the difference' in each listings keywords.

[@angelastrickland2472]

Is the "Who" the buyer or the recipient?

[@sinankahraman-rx9ej]

Hello, I am from Turkey, and I have a small question. I see you say not to use tools like Alura, eRank, or EverBee. This is my first time hearing this idea. But is this way enough to know if we have good SEO without any data?

[@ArkatzMods]

Most Etsy seller don't even understand how much this is a gold mine. Sweet for me!

[@etsyconsultant]

Great to hear!

[@wim725]

I read that etsy don’t recommend one word tags. Any thoughts on that? And Im just curious if “best seller” on etsy already have The title. Still not advisable to get some of the words instead creating new words just like whats your showing?

[@ibrahimsholeh5140]

Request : please make a video about GPSR issue in EU.. Ive a plan to sell digital products in EU, but still afraid of that GPSR

[@etsyconsultant]

I will be making one when we actually know what is happening.

[@MademoiselleRose40]

Yes, my husband sells a piece of camera equipment to EU customers from Australia that he makes. We have no idea what to do about it. Does he just send them and hope for the best? Will customers stop buying because they know they won't get them? How does it even work in practical terms? If you know, please.

[@JayParanagama]

Hey Nik! Appreciate all your videos. Tbh, have stopped watching everything else that's out there cause your advice seem more "real" if you know what I mean. I wanted to ask about tags a bit. I've been doing the 5 Ws, but even with me using up all the 13 tags, it seems Etsy only hand selects what actually shows up as tags? Am I doing something wrong? I installed the extension you had mentioned in one of your videos, which has been helpful, but still I don't get what's going on. Any thoughts or advice?

[@trevorfichtner3539]

im confused about the structure of the title, with the line down the midde. are we supposed to type that line between sets of words? word, word / word, word / word, word, / desc, desc / anchor, anchor/ desc, des/ anchor anchor like that? does it matter if i am mixing them like: desc, anchor / anchor, desc / like that? im confused if i am fallowing the format correctly, or how much that matters. i feel like he wouldnt have drawn the line if it doesnt matter, but doesnt it just use each keyword you used when someone types in search anyways? why would it make a difference?? please someone help clarify ASAP. I am starting my store now and am nervous to even post before understanding this.

[@trevorfichtner3539]

why do some have 2 words then comma, while some its one word then comma, do slashes AND commas separate keywords? if i say "horse shoe," in title and someone searches "shoe" will it search my ad where i used "horse shoe," in title?

[@Jacqueline-sy2vv]

I sell womens clothing and as you would expect, half is Summer and half is Winter. During the Winter the Summer stock doesn't sell and vice versa. Does this affect my shop as will Etsy know the items are not selling because it is not the right season. Thanks in advance

[@RandyRobarge]

I opened an Etsy store back in 2021 but never started listing. I'm just now starting to list and used the same account, but I noticed it says I've been selling for 3 years with no sales! Would starting a new store be better than using the old one? Thank you!

Why so gou advocate using commas in the title, is it just for readability for customers or does it serve other purposes as well?

[@etsyconsultant]

@@LittleVintageCottage Hi, it's just for readability.

[@misslissie1]

I opened an Etsy account in 2016 and it has been non active with just one listing. I recently decided to blow some life in to my shop. I renamed it, deleted the one product and I have now made a listing every day for 10 days. My question is, does it matter if it is an Etsy account from 2016? Maybe i should have started a new account? Thanks in advance🌸

[@ambertheprofessional]

Why is the "red red green" method effective? Why does Etsy like that?

[@etsyconsultant]

It's not that Etsy particularly likes it, however it ensures legibility, and that you use all your title space, and that you really think about your product title. This will make you eligible for more search queries, and this is why my system works. I hope that answers your question!

[@millemajart]

OMG - will you please marry me 😛 This is so much what i have been looking for. I was literally loosing my mind with E-rank and all that SEO shit. Thank you so much for all your videos. They saved my Etsy shop i am sure.......I only have one ??? When you say, in another video, that not to upload to fast, does it also apply to changes i make on the existing listings? I am changing the appearance.
