My feeling is that they just ban shops randomly, even if you follow all the suggested, they do it without reason and without warning and without explanation.

They do ban shops randomly. We went through the policies with a fine tooth comb and ensured we didnt violate anything. Still suspended. No explanation. Denied appeal. And still no clue what problem even was

I think you have to wait a few days and it gets activated back. I made 3 shops in the past 5 years and each one got banned right away the first day. It's not really a ban, they just take time to check out all the info. I really hope this is the case for you too, try to search the name of your banned shop in the Etsy search or try to log in every now and then

Can you please make a full video on posting too many listings per day? I can't find any information on this at all. Can you show examples and is this something new? This is a massive subject that I think many sellers can benefit from please and thank you.

Hi Brandon, Regarding personal information, since I am 17 years old and I already have a debit card in my bank because in my country you can have an account and a card already at 16 years old, is there any rule on the etsy platform that you have to have more than 18 years to start a new shop

thanks for sharing this! really appreciate it! I'm also in Canada but my product is a made-to-order item, which will be shipped from another country, in this case, which country should I put when registering the shop? thanks!

@absolutefreedom8035 Ай бұрын

your country, or you may get banned. later you will be able to change your country of origin per item, even if I believe it can impact you account, etsy gives a huge advantage to local sellers

@brandontimothy Ай бұрын

Yes, it should be your country.

Hi ! thanks for the videos. I'm having a hard time understanding the niche category. Is “instagram template" a niche? or should you target "instagram template for a particular subject? thank you very much.

@brandontimothy 2 ай бұрын

Hi there! "Instagram template" is a broad term. And yes, to be more specific, it's better to target "Instagram templates for a particular subject." For example, you could focus on "Instagram templates for fitness enthusiasts" or "Instagram templates for food bloggers." This way, you're targeting a more defined audience with your products. Hope that clears things up! 😊

When I do POD, which location should be visible below my shop name? The location/country of my POD (USA) or my own (Germany) ?

@brandontimothy 2 ай бұрын

It's best to display the location of your POD provider below your shop name. This helps customers know where their products will be produced and shipped from.

I wanted to see what a customer would experience when they will by my product. So i used my second etsy account to by one of my products and i was suspended. Should I admit my mistake to them in my appeal?

@brandontimothy Ай бұрын

Never do that again. As for your appeal, it's best to be honest and admit your mistake. Explain that you wanted to understand the customer experience but now realize it was against Etsy's policies. Assure them it won't happen again moving forward.

Also, what if i start a new store on different ip address and move to the old one? Does it have to match with my physical address? As you might see, i m kinda lost now contaplating if i should open a new one and how...great video tho..thanks

Starting a new store on a different IP shouldn't be an issue, but ensure your account details are accurate.

@brandontimothy I just started with process for listing 1st product in. The process from "shop preferences" till "your shop security". The process not yet complete the end of "your shop security". My account had been suspended with unknown reason and appeal had filed in a short while just received the etsy message that my account doesn't reinstated. I had emailed them to find out the reason but still unresponsive from Etsy. What should do?

Everyone who listens to most of this advice and other KZfaqrs are done. It is over for anyone who thinks you can bulk upload ever. You have to actually buy your POD now. No mockups allowed. It is over for low effort scammers. Real creators only now.
