Not so new but needing new advice!

Hi,

I joined Etsy in April of 2013 but have been so busy making things for the shop I haven't spent much time fixing my marketing. I have vowed this is the month to really work on the shop and will be taking new pics and working on my listings etc. The biggest problem I have though is getting seen; I usually only get 2 -8 views a day! I'm not sure what's wrong and would like to get advice on what you think could be the problem; listings, titles etc. Thanks in advance and please let me know if this is the right team for this info.

I started in April 2013 also :) I have noticed that the more I use social media (Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus) the better traffic flow I get. I also joined a few teams here on Etsy and participate often and that seems to get me more views also. Some days are just slower than others. I think your shop looks great!! Sometimes we get so wrapped up in creating that we push aside the marketing, and we really need to get our name out there and move some merchandise :) I hope that helps some and best of luck to you.

I have tried using Facebook and put my new products on there but wasn't really sure if that helped or not. Haven't used the other two yet and this is the first team I've joined, so I guess I'd better get going.
I appreciate the kind words of encouragement. Sometimes starting a shop can be overwhelming with all there is to do, but I'm slowly finding my way and really enjoying it. Thanks for your help!
