Re: Critique me please

You my dear are EXTREMELY talented! LOVE the artwork! I think your shop banner is great because it shows what sort of work you do. It shows you are flexible in the type of artwork you create. I love the products. The only thing I can see that may work better is your shop name. You need a name that tells everyone what you are about and what kinds of things you do. "Custom crafts" could be anything and your work is VERY good... not just an "anything" type deal!

That artwork is amazing girl!

Re: Critique me please

Ok Ana,
Your artistry is FANTASTIC! Photos are great. Descriptions are lacking some detail and keywords. Listing #2 should be seperated to create a higher listing count and people NEED to see those pics as individual listings because your art is Soooo wonderful, and it will give your store a higher viewability ratio. The About section in your profile, Type anything, Etsy is Gretsy and they have a need for completion. A++ on the shop banner, tweek the announcements into whole sentences. And I will check out your tags as soon as I have a min. And "Custom Crafts" fits but lacks pizzaz. My shop name does too but it is best to wait and come up with something that really defines your art and ability. We will have to brainstorm....

Re: Critique me please

Amber,
Your announcement is great. Your photos are very clear and vibrant. You did a great job on those using "bland" backgrounds to make your item pop! I dont really see much of anything that I would change. The ONLY thing I can see that I might change would be the banner. Use pictures of your products as a banner to draw attention to your talents! You can make one on Pizap using pictures of your items. Its a great tool for doing banners! Hope that helps you ^_^

Re: Critique me please

Amber...
Very nice product line. Your banner is fine, it fits into the "Advertising Rules" of simple design and a basic catchy color scheme of 3 colors. It is the "norm" of any business advertising. Naturally we are here at Etsy, Artistic central, so making a more creative banner is great too.Your photos are nice, but... You need to zoom out a little so the whole product is in the thumbnail. Sometimes you can tweek them without taking new photos, when you edit your listing there is a pen icon under your photo, it will give you options for how you want your thumbnail to look. Check it out. Also, Etsy is Gretsy and has a need for completion, my advice is to fill all five available photo spots, they dont look at the content, just the stats. One more thing, use Marmalead.com to tweek your tags, I had a hard time searching for your products and found 1 like 6 pages in. Marmalead is made to help Etsy sellers get a step above the competition.

CuteCrafts....
You are a candidate for a complete make over! Lol not in a bad way, Your items are very nice and should be included in the "rustic" and "Minimalist" categories (key words to use 😀). But you definitely need to fill in some empty spaces. So, what I want you to do is read my thread "New shop basic info here" it is set up in a step by step fashion and after you fill in the basics, I will critique you and your shop but you are off to a great start with a very Marketable Trendy product.

Re: Critique me please

Lori, I went to the links you provided and it wont let me see the items. You will have to send the link from the public's view of your shop.

Re: Critique me please

Lori,
I was unable to use those links either. To post your items here. Hold your finger on the photo of your listing until the options screen pops up and chose "copy link address" then paste here.
Your pictures are pretty good. Zoom out a tad bit so the whole item can be seen in the thumbnail. Also, go to Marmalead.com so you can pick better tags. They should be 2 to 3 words. I searched for a variety of your items and I just couldn't find you. 😎 Start there and I will stop in again. Have an awesome day!

Re: Critique me please

So sorry! Very new to this, and I'm about as tech-savvy as a T-rex. Here are the links again...

https://www.etsy.com/listing/397836471/youve-got-to-pick-a-pocket-or-two-tote?ref=shop_home_active_1...

As far as tags go, I'll show the Marmalead link to my daughter - she helped me set up the shop. I didn't know that the tags should be 2 to 3 words long each. I used all the words I thought would be associated with the type of product it was. Any other suggestions are welcome - and thank you! :)

I would love someone critique my shop. Sometimes I wonder if I have to many different types of products and need to narrow it down. Any advice on anything would be appreciated
