👀 October = browsing, not buying. Most Etsy shoppers purchase in Nov/Black Friday. Now’s the time to polish: ✨ update photos, clarify titles, add shipping cutoffs & stock bestsellers. Prep now so you’re top of their list later! #etsy #handmadealphas

🎃 Keywords are like pumpkins: big = broad, competitive; medium = balanced; small = niche, high-converting. 🍂 Use all three to build a strong “keyword patch” this Q4. Too many big & you’re lost, too many small & you miss volume. Balance is the magic! #etsy #seo

🕸️ A strong SEO strategy is like a spider web… the more strands (variety of keywords) you weave, the better your chances of catching buyers.

🧙‍♀️ You shall not pass… the algorithm with keyword stuffing! Etsy says short, clear titles win. ⚔️ Don’t change listings that already sell... only tweak new or underperformers. ✨ Grab my free SEO eBooks to master the magic → https://bit.ly/SEOeBooks

Candy corn isn’t just for Halloween… it’s also the perfect way to think about your Etsy listings. 🧡

Just like candy corn, every layer matters… but together, it’s the whole piece that makes it work (even if you don’t like candy corn).

No two shops will ever see the exact same results, because every shop has its own mix of ranking factors: products, niches, photos, reviews, customer behavior, you name it. That’s why copying someone else’s strategy rarely works the same way.
