I have been paying closer attention to my Google Analytics, too, which has helped me identify what tags and key words I should be using. "Chain necklace" for example, which is a tag I had not started using until last week.<br /><br />Good luck!<br /><br />MichelleMichelle Moyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13914016138621764164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3579741772835810440.post-43093845676523698152010-06-25T16:19:58.236-07:002010-06-25T16:19:58.236-07:00I've had to do the same thing for my Etsy shop...I've had to do the same thing for my Etsy shop.

You may want to focus on 'some of them' more than on others, but the more you spread the word, the better. My direct sales at markets or throuh retail beat out on-line sales any given day, simply coz people like to touch things.<br />BUT - i have been discovered by all, but one of my retailers through Etsy, without basically needing to approach them myself. <br /><br />I also shop at Etsy - and I would not have learned about many indie brands I purchase from today, simply because they would never appear on Google's or other search engines' first 5000 or so listings, espec.; if you search for cosmethics - or for that matter - jewellery.<br /><br />I am finding Etsy - or other sites - great for exposure, not so much for sales (unless you're selling $6-9 worth items) - sales come once you establish your brand over the years, but for now I use art shows, retail and ocasional on-line gig.<br /> I would say it is smart to keep all shops - incl. Etsy. I have just tried Artfire, which is a way better site, but it just doesn't seem to have the audience yet. It will. <br /><br />There are also art or fashion focused sites, such as BigCartel or.. well, embarrassed to say, but - Chictopia... Those seem to be growing faster than many pure craft sites.<br /><br />good luck,<br />jolantaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3579741772835810440.post-61824626427373871882009-11-03T11:54:34.141-08:002009-11-03T11:54:34.141-08:00Lovely idea :) Looks great!

I agree that an Ebay store is too expensive, but if you can absorb the other Ebay fees, I think it is worth it to use Ebay as another market for selling. I do use Photobucket to try and cut down on the fees and show as many photos as I want for free.Michelle Moyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13914016138621764164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3579741772835810440.post-29121021029601119302009-10-22T11:16:33.596-07:002009-10-22T11:16:33.596-07:00Congratulations on your ebay sale.

They sold. <br /><br />I am getting back to ebay too. Not with a store. I never could afford one, but just weekly listings. Even selling yard sale items for 99 cents each netted profit.<br /><br />Best wishes!<br /><br />Thank you for posting on my blog thread.<br /><br />Here's mine<br />http://christiecottage.blogspot.comChristie Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07304688541769492212noreply@blogger.com
