Hi!

I joined this group expecting this to be a place to support each other to improve our shops and get results - we are all new starters, a long way to go...

I have had a look at your shop - and wanted to give feedback to you, hoping it would be a contribution in this sense. If you find it helpful, I would be happy - my intention would by no means be to intrude or criticize. And, me and my partner, we would be very happy sincerely if you would have any input we could use to improve our shop.

I like the idea of your shop - simple, items with practical use that could nicely be fitting together. Just, it needs a bit more work, I think, re number of items as well as the photos. For example photos for headbands are too large - without reading the text, I would not get what the item is. So is the one for the heart-figured drink coasters: I thought of it to be a photo frame at first sight. For the towel, photos can be less in number and the first one can be made to be a more attractive one.

All the best!

Thank you for your feed back. We want any help we can get. We are working on adding more items. We have a few new ones we are waiting to post. We have issues taking the pictures and having them look good. I'll take a look at your shop as well and give my feedback too. Ty

Hi again. I like your products very much. I am especially fond of the eyeglass beads. They are so hard to find. I have couple observations. First the bracelets pictures, I like the pictures not on the red base best. I feel like the red is distracting from the bracelets and the only other picture I personally would change would be the black feather background I think it takes away from the product. Thanks again for the reply and feedback!

[Former_Member]

You both have very nice shops.

[Former_Member]

Thank you Megan - so is your shop :)

Kel, Chel - many thanks! Removed the feather photo and re-arranged others - cheers!

[Former_Member]

Thank you Megan! As do both of you!

Helllooo red spot this is the other half of the dynamic crafting duo that is Kel and Chel, I do most of our online logistics and therefore my partner in crime asked me to take a look at your shop as well. First of all, bravo! Your pictures (one of our biggest and constant challenges) look great. The products are all so colorful and interesting that placing each of them on a white background truly brings showcases your products.

The most important aspect that I would work on is your Search engine optimization. The very first word of your title should be your most important tag. This word should also appear first in your description. This will ensure that when someone searches that tag word that not only does your product appear but it also appears higher up in the search. I am by NO means an expert on this and I am still learning and improving our own shop's SEO every single day. But I can tell from just a few seconds of looking at your shop that you are not optimizing what you could be from your SEO. I think this will help your views tremendously. Start by looking up articles and posts, etc on the discussions, questions, etc. Also join the SEO team too! Any more questions don't hesitate to ask!

[Former_Member]

I am very happy to have met this dynamic duo :) Really appreciate the comment, I had not thought of the optimization at all- you have given me a new dimension to work on!

Thanks for your comments about the photos.That is my other hobby, photography. Your items are more complex to photo compared to mine - requires styling - simple and repeatable. If you want to think aloud with someone outside the duo, I am here :)

Cheers!

Hi Erikka :)

I think you need to do some work on the photos - simple, clear background maybe, and better light. Daylight could be great, some of your photos look to me as if taken with flash which makes them sharp - one side over lit, the other too much under shadow.

... and, we all need to find a way to move our items up in the search engine. One way is the "optimization" recommendation as suggested by Kel & Chel above. the other way I understand is to be involved in the trends somehow. The teams are networks - and unless we are active in those networks, I do not think we will make a step change re umber of followers. How - I do to have the answer, open for your views. Treasuries should help (ref the so titled discussion line I opened in the group) but without the networking involvement, that would not take us anywhere either...

Hi Errika

I like your products very much. My daughter is the brains of our operation but I also pin all of my products to a page on my pintrest and that gives them another chance to be seen. It does appear to help increase our view stats. I think it's good if we continue to help each other too.

Greetings group! Brand new to Etsy, already selling my shoes and clothes on other sites but wanted to put my homemade products here on etsy. Any suggestions??

[Former_Member]

You have great shops :)

( PLEASE ZOOM IN TO SEE THE FULL EFFECTS AND COLOURS )
Created by using paints with a high pigment content on specially prepared glass, the Delux Range emphasises vibrancy, contrast and style. Embracing a sense of natural chaos, they make a bold statement in any, post-modern setting.

Fashionable and affordable, the eye-catching designs of these hand-made clocks are far from conventional. Each, unique piece fuses flourishes of colour to produce an effect that can be anything from boisterous to enigmatic. These clocks are an attention-grabbing focal point for any home or office.

They come with a silent sweeping mechanism and ready to hang or we have an optional 'Oak base plate' for those that require a free standing desk / window sill clock.
Measurements - 24" x 6"

Each of these pieces are completely unique and handmade by myself.

Hi Everyone, I am now a favourite of all your lovely shops. I have just opened mine this evening. I hope you have a chance to stop by and take a look. It always seems so difficult when you first set out. Thanks x

[Former_Member]

The Gracieemilysplace and Beautifullybrave were favorited. Happy sales to you!

Hi everybody!

Sarah, Swetlana, Wizondeful world - looked at your pages, so delicate, nice handwork :) I think we could all do more about using the text (especially the tittle) better, to come up higher on the search engine results so that customers can find us. Please scroll up - there is a response by Kel & Chel to me earlier which could be of use for all. Since then, I have been searching on easy and google putting myself in the shoes of a potential customer, so what would I type in for the search? What have the people often typed before? and, there are good practices to learn from - check out how the other shops selling similar items are using their titles and descriptions. It has helped me - it could be of help to you!

Have a great weekend !

Hi, I have favorited everyone's shops. I am getting some views but no sales. Any advice would be appreciated. I just added int'l shipping and am in the process of doing new pics and have just made a lot of changes, haven't had a lot of time to see if this is going to help.

[yunijewels]

Hi Tina,

You are so talented. Your paintings are beautiful. I especially love the "Survivor" one. Welcome to Etsy. We have only been doing it for a month so far and no sales yet but we have read that it can take awhile. Good luck

[moZEHicDesigns]

Hi everyone. Kinda new. Still low views and sales. Staying hopeful. I really like the community here. Good luck to all!

[Former_Member]

Amanda, I liked you shop, you have wide range of products! I like the simplicity of the photos however I was drawn to the lip care photo with the flowers, It was really pretty and drew me in. 😊

I like you items Dana, the sets are a great price for how much work they must involve.

Congratulations to you both on your first sales. How exciting!
