Views are normal but low sales.Help Please!

Hi everybody,
I'm Satya. I am here since Nov 2015.I like etsy but now m very disappointed because I have very low sales. Maybe I´m doing something wrong??? I´m also promoting my shop on social media (pinterest, facebook, instagram,Twitter) which helps a bit, but not too much... what can I do? Should I change something?

I have been here since 2013 and have had only fifteen sales. I keep trying new things and nothing seems to help. Go any advice.

Re: Views are normal but low sales.Help Please!

hi, Susan, I just joined this team and will try to give you my best advice. First, I think you have made a lot of lovely jewelry and your prices are just fine. The first thing that jumped out at me is that some of your photos are really dark! Is there some way you can make them brighter?

I have been reading the Etsy guidelines for titles and tags. They should match. When I make a title, I copy and paste it into the tag section and then add it. Your titles need to have commas between the phrases so that they will be found. I just looked at your (lovely) amber necklace for an example. Try amber necklace, amber beads, gift for teen, gift for women. 15" should go in your description because nobody will search for that, but they will want to know it when they are considering whether to buy it or not. Etsy says that phrases, rather than single words get more hits.
When I first looked at your shop, I saw so many different kinds of items that I doubted that you had made all of them. So I went to the place where you tell about yourself and found out that, yes! you did make all these things. Maybe you could put something like that in your shop announcement so people can see it right away.
Good luck! Hope this helps.

Satya, Really, I don't think that 220 sales since 2015 is too bad. I think you are doing fine. Your photos are nice and light, your prices are good. I do wonder who is making your pieces? You have photos of hands sewing...is that you?
I looked at your purple roundie...your tags should match your titles. When I write a title, I copy and paste it into the tag line so they will match. There are more tags than room in the title area, so you can add some more. Plus, Etsy gives higher value to multiple word tags. You have "purple." It could be purple mat or something like that. think what people will search for...probably not just plain "purple."
I also checked your lovely pashima wrap, the black and red one. You have only used 8 tags. (The first ones come from your categories...I can see your tags at the bottom of your listings) You'll get more traffic if you use all 13 of them. I think you are doing a great job. And I love the brilliant colors.
