Thanks for this article! I will be reading this as soon as the kidlet is quietly eating his breakfast.

What if you are having a few sales but hardly any views? I saw someone post an e-pattern, in pdf, and get 400 views in the first hour. There were a lot of other e-patterns posted at the same time by other sellers so it was not like this was a one of a kind item. Whereas I normally get 1 view in the first hour on anything I list. I need to do something but not sure what.

Thanks for the advice. I hope it's because it's a slow time of the year. Maybe I should not have adverised on Facebook???

I keep adding art but I know it's a hard sell. I would like to combine some of my Greeting Cards in boxes of 5. The price to have them made on archival paper is so expensive, so in reality, how much profit should I look to get on each card? Any help really appreciated.

Sometimes when an item has a lot of views, like 400, it has been listed for a while. When you sell items you are given the choice to relist, which keeps your views. This helps your SEO.
