featured on FP - what has it done for you??

[Former_Member]

so i have been on FP last week on thursday and even though my may has been pretty bad up until then i sold 6 bracelets since then. so it ended rather well. also my views went up. i don´t know if it really is due to the feature or if part of it is coincidence.
what have you experienced after being featured on FP??
more sales,more views??
i´d like to know so i can relate.
have a nice sunday

Congrats on ending your month with a bang!

Mine resulted in a sale and a ton of views and faves.. *wishes for more sales*
It's still publicity though and I was pretty stoked to make FP despite the lack of sales :)

Normally the item being sold - SOMETIMES sells - most of the time I just get a bunch of views and favorites. Sometimes zero sales - so I can it all differs.

Years ago when you hit the front page - your item sold and a bunch of your other items sold - It was so amazing to hit the front page - not, not as big of a deal (to me anyways)

I've never been featured on this site. But on other sites I find it helps with views and often with sales.

Congrats! :)

I got a lof of extra views and favorites but the item did not sell ( that wa sthis week).
I have sold items afterwards but I can not say that tis is due to the feature on the FP.
Nevertheless I was really happy with it !!!

I've been on the Etsy FP 3 times and the Australian FP once. I had a few sales from being on the Australian FP but none from the regular Etsy FP.

I've been on the American & European front pages. Lots of views & faves, but no sales. I think a lot of it depends on what you sell...my ties are high-end, so not so much of an impulse buy, which I think is more the sort of sale one would get from being on an FP.

@ dan
good point, well my bracelets are not that expensive.

I had a lot of views and a lot of favourites, but I'm not sure many translated to actual sales. Perhaps 1 the first time I got featured, but then nothing much more. It's a great feeling though, because not just the people on the front page see you- all of their followers see it too

Congratulation on being on the front page. I would not know about increase sales as none of my items in any of my 3 shops have ever been on the front page. I am in the process of closing my shops due to lack of sales.
