Decrease on sales since April 2021. Please Help

Hi dear fellow Etsy sellers

I'm looking for Help from experienced sellers!

I own a Digital Inspirational Quotes and Sayings shop that's been doing pretty well until last month.

I am trying to figure out what is happening with Etsy these days.

Has anyone noticed a huge drop in sales and visits on their Etsy shop since middle of April?

The keywords in searches that used to lead customers to my shops are no longer working, have changed completely, there are actually some weirdly (if not ridiculously) different keywords that lead 2-3 seekers to my shop, who aren't even looking or what I sell. 

What's going on with Etsy? What has changed?

There was a continuous ongoing rising statistics of orders in my shop since May 2019, also starting April last year, and a shocking drop this year since mid April.

I keep changing the keywords, but it isn't helping, I just hope I don't ruin listings that were doing so well last year.

I'm not paying for ads, because I got satisfactory sales without them. And ads don't really work with digital items, you just needlessly pay for clicks without sales on your items.

Everything has dropped. My listings brought me a pretty good income - they were appealing as they were (without me having to "brainstorm" how to improve everything now). Also about almost 25 less items.

I don't get it. I have visits (22% less than last year). Are people not shopping from Etsy anymore or is it just my shop?

I would love the positive input/tips of experienced Etsy sellers to my questions.

I will post a link to my shop,

Many blessings and numerous sells to everyone!

hi,after a good year last year  I had a sudden drop in Feb. March, then everything picked up again for April then since last week even the looks and the traffic have gone to nothing. They are constantly changing algorithms  and playing around with the platform. but it is really hard to know what they are doing.  I also had a humber of reviews post almost a month after they were posted by the buyer and have messages that never go through.  They do nothing, any problems are met with Covid excuses.

Same here.  Was doing great till the middle of April when I put it in vacation mode.  Took it off when I came back 5 day later.  Had only one sale since!  No traffic.
