"Looks like your shop is on holiday mode or inactive"

I reopened my store. it has been on vacations since 2 years ago maybe?
I'm adding listings, but I don't see them when I search them on Etsy, I just see them with my direct link.

I thought about adding ads and then this is what it says 

"Your shop needs to be active to start Etsy Ads

Looks like your shop is on holiday mode or inactive right now. When your shop is active again, you can start advertising right away."

my shop is not on vacation mode anymore so I don't understand what I happening

@HipfitBellydance You're not on vacation but your shop is NOT indexed so you won't be found in search.

You can tell this by searching for any word in your titles within your shop.
If you get 0 results you're not indexed.


Your titles need work, most start with the same words which won't help you get found when your shop does get indexed.
And you're repeating the same words over and over which also isn't recommended and can hurt you in search.

ETA: This is the problem: NO payment methods available in your shop.
Look on your finance page and/or dashboard and make sure you don't have to update anything since you've been on vacay for 2 years.

Credit card info might need updating, your bank info might need updating as other legal stuff that has changed in the last 2 years.

@HipfitBellydance You don't have any payment methods available so something on your finance page needs updated.

No payment methods are showing on your shop home page.

I see this if I add an item to my cart:
"How you'll pay"

All payment methods for this shop are temporarily unavailable.

You have no payment methods listed so check to see if you need to do something there like have your banking account verified again.  Also I think Canada has some new tax adds that you might need to do.
