What is your experience with bannerplay ads?

[GrannyKnowsBest]

Hello everyone,
What do you think about this new way of publicity, offered by Etsy? When I saw it, decided to give it a try, because it looks really good. It is 14$ weekly budget, which is not excessive, but the problem is that you don't know were your ad runs. They say "to targeted public" but I don't know what this means. I have regulary views, but any sales so far.

Have you tried it? Does it work for you?

I tried it but found it to be a complete waste of money.

I agree with Taylor and Wendy. I tried it me too, in a week just 5-6 visits from there...

I haven't heard of this. Where can I read about it?

[Former_Member]

Me either, I am not familar with the bannerplay. But doesn't sound worth looking into.

check the Etsy's apps and you will find it on the top of the list. I don't it may work for somebody else. For me it looks a great way to promote, because it shows a picture of yours to click on, but it depends when it runs and how appealing the picture is...

Thanks Nevyana. Wow it sounds really good when you read about it, but apparently not so much in reality. Maybe someone will post on here who has had good luck with it.

One thing to remember is that most of the apps are developed by a third party and NOT by Etsy. And if you are paying to use an app, you really have to think about who is going to benefit from you using that app.

Is it you or is it the developer who is benefiting more?
