Tags and descriptions

[Former_Member]

Could someone please critique my tags and descriptions? I must be doing something wrong because Im hardly getting any views :( ...help! (Thank you for your time!)

I don't have much to critique because your shop looks really good!

From what I looked at your tags seemed great. One recommendation I have is to unify your photos more. Some of them are great, but they don't all look cohesive to me. I noticed a jump in views when I had over 75 items too.
Have you tried marketing outside of Etsy?
Best of luck!

Not sure that using periods in your title is good for Google search.

SeedandSky - thank you, Im on it already, adding new items and trying to keep the photos similar.
Linneamarie- thanks, I was wondering that too...

Anyone know for sure?

Any other tips on improving titles and tags would be most appreciated!

I would say get rid of the periods, too. Have you watched the Get Found video on here? It might help alot. Also I can't tell if these are vintage items or handmade from the title or description so you might not be getting whichever audience to notice you either. Short phrases might work better such as...
Black chandelier earings
White embroidered tea towels

The titles are what need to match the search words people are typing in.
Red shoes. Size 39. Patchwork. Canvas. Casual. Denims would not be the most likely words someone would use :)

Thanks dieseline - I will definitely check the video.. and good point about the handmade/vintage words.

Regarding the titles, I thought the words will be taken individually
for example, in this listing:
"Red shoes. Size 39. Patchwork. Canvas. Casual. Denims "
would it not show up if someone was searching for "Size 39 shoes" or "canvas shoes" or "casual denims" ?

short phrases definitely make more sense though.. will try changing that and see if it works!

thanks!

I think you don't have to put "and" between your tags.
For example:

http://www.etsy.com/listing/97232880/lime-green-tote-with-lovely-colorful

one of your tag is Bags and Purses, you should just write purse or bags. not two together.

I think Bags and Purses is the section chosen from the drop down menu when listing the item not one of the tags.
