Not Indexed?

[RarePaperDetective]

How do you know if you are indexed or if your indexing is "working" properly? I went incognito, trying to figure out why my sales went off a cliff, and under luggage stickers or luggage labels I couldn't find my items. I have a lot of offerings and they were always at least somewhere in the top 5 pages. I mean, there are literally completely unrelated stickers showing up  and my stuff that is titled " LUGGAE LABELS" or "LUGGAGE STICKERS" are no where. Apothecary is the same. It seems inconceivable to me that my shop has died AND that my items are so far back if at all in search? 

Or, I mangled all my SEO so bad... It was working fine though.

Quick way to check if your shop/listings are indexed is to go to your shop front page , the public view as shoppers would see it. Then use the search bar in your shop to search for something that should bring results. If you get results you are indexed. If you get zero results you aren't indexed.

Example- I just went to your shop front page and searched for sticker. It gave me 1177 results which indicates your shop listings are indexed. 

When I do a general search on all of etsy for luggage label stickers your listings I get 40+ of your listings on the first page of the search results starting on the second row.

Your shop is indexed, but you won't find it, if you don't set your location
