Looking for Help in Increasing My SEO

[Former_Member]

Hello all! I'm a new member to the Beginner SEO Team and I came here because I am in desperate need of some help in increasing my shop's SEO. I've already read a lot of the Etsy articles on this topic and have made adjustments based on their advice, but I have come to the conclusion that, because candles are such a highly saturated category, I need to be a bit more specific with my keywords.

As of right now, I've focused my listings on the keywords "candle(s)", "soy candle(s)", and "handmade candle(s)". If anyone would be so kind to take a peek at my shop listings and let me know if you have any other ideas for helpful keywords, I would be IMMENSELY grateful!

Thanks in advance!

Hi Candles,

The one thing that I would strongly suggest is that you remove the '---' from your titles or at least leave spaces around them.

Google doesn't like punctuation in the titles.

you could try listing your essential and scenting oils too like lavender, rose, ect. People looking for those will come across your candles.

crochetgal--Thanks, I'll definitely do that!

twyladigangi--I do already list my oils and fragrances in the titles and tags. Was there another spot you were thinking of?

Thanks guys! :)
