Team, I'm happy to report that you do not have to post a ton of listing tweets to get lots of listing views. Retweeting with the team is very effective way to increase shop traffic.
Product Listing Retweets = Product Listing views!
Here is our emerging formula:
24/7 Product Listing Tweet via etsy-fu.com - 1 Tweet per hour - using the #etsymnt hashtag will get 8-20+ retweets generating 20-30+ shop listing views per hour for approximately 400-700 listing/shop views a day
(these numbers are subject to the number of listings in your shop. Listing views maybe lower for shops with 60 or less items.)
etsy-fu.com + our #etsymnt + roundteam.co + all the team effort w/manual rts is really working!
As more members participate in Team Retweeing, these numbers will climb!
SO, if you would like to drive more traffic into your shop immediately, here's what you need to do...(AND IT'S EASY..15-20 mins & u could be done!)
STEP 1. Sign up for Etsy-fu.com (free mo. trial no CC needed) – set your ‘global hashtag’ as #etsymnt. (tip - have good listing titles - search our forum for SEO tips)
STEP 2. Sign up for
https://roundteam.co and set up the following:
Under Team->Followed->add 1. #etsymnt and 2. from:etsymeetntweet - add these as two separate items under followed.
Then set the following filters (hover your cursor of each of the add items and click on the filter icon):
1) no @coversations
2) no. of hashtags - 3 (important recommended)
3) min RT interval - 10-15
4) max mins ago - 1440 (one day)
5) max per hour - from:etsymeetntweet 7 and #etsymeetntweet 9 and see how it goes
You may need to tweak these settings to get the right flow. In an hour an ideal flow looks something like this...
No more the 15-20 tweets in an hour with the following sequence..
1 - product listing tweet of yours via etsy fu
3-4 auto retweets - members products, team tweets, quotes, blog post etc
1-2 - manual retweets live or scheduled, member product listing
1-3 - manual or scheduled tweets from you - thank you's, shout out's, replies etc, and maybe another product listing
3-4 more auto retweets - members products, team tweets, quotes, blog post etc
1-2 - manual retweets live or scheduled member product listing
NOTE: 1) no more than 5-6 retweets before there is something from you so that people don't feel like your not there AND 2) keep an eye out that you're maintaing a nicely balanced mix of non-product and product tweets.
STEP 3. TweetDeck.com – set up these columns
1. Your timeline – what your followers are tweeting
2. Your @mentions – who’s talking to or about you
3. Your Interactions – who’s retweeting you
4. Your Tweets
5. #etsymnt team tweets
6. @etsymeetntweet – tweets from the team’s twitter
7. Etsymeetntweet’s timeline – all team tweets
8. The team’s twitter list – “manually retweet”
These columns will give you a broad view of what’s going on and help you manually tweet/retweet.
Please note: if you are using roundteam and etsy-fu using our hashtag but are NOT getting mass retweets, please see: www.etsy.com/teams/15782/etsy-meet-n-tweet/discuss/13132867/page/1

Go Team!!!
