Six weeks ago I started working to bring back to life a shop that had been on vacation mode for about a year. Conversion rate for those 6 weeks has been 1.5%. But three weeks ago I came across your videos and have been following your advice as if I'm opening a new shop. Conversion rate for just the past two weeks is 2.5%. And the past week, 2.8%. So onward and upward. I've got more of your advice to apply, including the advice in this video, which is eye-opening but makes so much sense. I appreciate your videos so much. Thank you.

I’ve been selling since August 20, 2023 and my conversion rate is 8.1%. I’ve 775 visits and only 63 orders. I didn’t even know to look at the conversion rate until I saw this video. But, because I follow you faithfully, and do my SEO the way you said from day one, and include good photographs and a video for each listing, I think I’m off to a good start. My store only has 18 products (so far) and they are my own digital products. I do not do Etsy ads and do not drive traffic to my Etsy shop from social media (because you said not to). Thank you for your videos!

My overall conversion rate is 4.9%. I have a digital shop and started in June. I started watching your content in July and decided to add digital supplies to my shop and I'm at 32 sales now with only 70 items in my shop. Somedays i only get 1 or 2 views, and I get a sale, so my conversion rate for the last two months is pretty high. (9%) I just got my first 3 reviews a few days ago, and customers messaging me asking if i can design certain items and add them to my shop. Quality score is everything!

Brilliant video! The conversion rate varies daily though (for today for example I had 6.5% with 31 visits) while tomorrow it could be significantly down or even zero. For my shop it's the return of the repeat buyers that will mostly define my conversion rate. What time frame would be most valuable to evaluate the conversion rate - daily, weekly, monthly? Also, the upcoming holiday season will definitely change your conversion rate. Thanks for the lovely and informative videos!

My conversion rate is 1.5%. I'm in my fourth month...selling digital art. 33 Sales. I had ads going for the first 3 months...before I found you. I"ve had them off for a few weeks now. I had really consistent traffic while they were on. Now its all over the place. One day I'll have 9 views, next day 53, next day 1. I'm so confused. I have spent likely 10 hours daily on this since my kids went back to school. I'm following everything you suggest...but boy, getting organic traffic is not easy.

Right there with you. My digital sales are even less. My second digital store has actually cost me money because of the ad’s I ran (ad’s are TERRIBLE idea on items with $2 profit). Will very likely shut it down since the recurring listing fees on well over 100 items is just going to eat at ANY sales I make.

Hi, you are doing VERY well, those stats are way above the average client I work with on a day to day basis. This work is extremely hard, you have to build inventory, your store needs to get to 100 items and beyond to get decent organic traffic, there is a ton of competition out there, so bigger stores will rack up more views.

My conversion rate is up to .9 after six months. I recently added products that are made to order, a little less expensive and are becoming regular sellers, but my items are time consuming handmade products so I can't mass produce. Hoping to bring my conversion rate up by offering patterns and kits soon. I'm only able too keep around 20 items in my shop right now, but half of them are made to order, so I'm at least able to list them with high stock.

Could you please consider doing a video about the gurus and the realism of the information? Not naming names or anything specific. I think lots of people are confused by reports of six and seven figure stores. We know they exist, we can see them when we search Etsy, but what is realistic in 2023 for new sellers? And what does it take really to stand a chance of a good full time income? Your advice is very different to most of the other promoted videos. Personally my POD store has a tiny conversion rate and does not make sales. I have watched videos that suggest you can offer multiple diverse POD products in a store, and seen some successful stores do this. But generally, what is the best way to do POD well on Etsy? Is it a more tightly focused product category? Some suggest people only care about the listings and find you through that, rather than caring about the look of the store?

They’re basically saying that if you have the best SEO, your products will be on the first or second page, due to that SEO.

I wonder this too....but even Nick has recommended doing seasonal listings.
@etsyconsultant 9 ай бұрын
Hi, it is highly likely the holiday apparel won't sell well (if it does sell well, let me know!), and this will lower your conversion. If your store was built from the ground up as christmas related, and it had historically sold as a christmas store, then that would be different.
@etsyconsultant 9 ай бұрын
Yes, if you sell seasonal listings, they need to go in your store 3 months before the date, and you preferably need to have a history of selling those items.

Hi Nick, my store has been running since january and my conversion rate is 0.6%. How to upscale them? Could you help me? Thanks
@etsyconsultant 10 ай бұрын
Hi, this CR is a bit low, this means you are getting views that are not converting, and this means you need to look at your products/video/photography as a focal point.

I have a question about your comments on the Christmas ornaments. Is the problem ornaments themself, or is it just foolish to add things to your store you aren't known for? I ask because I've recently started a POD shop, and I really want to offer different types of products that fit the design ideas I come up with, as opposed to the single niche idea where I just make dog shirts till the end of time.
@etsyconsultant 9 ай бұрын
The 2 problems are: 1 Your store is not known for ornaments 2 99% or more of sellers will just churn out POD christmas ornaments that are all the same, this wont work. If you want to get sales, you have to put the effort in and will need to make the ornaments, and that is a whole different ball game.

So i sell digital items, clip art and the like. I started in July and only have 36 items. My conversion rate is 3.3% I have had 570 visits and only 19 orders. Is that even normal. I feel like that isnt alot of sales for the number of visits. I see people on here with lower conversion rates but am not sure what the means exactly.

@MissMolly3377 10 ай бұрын
I think he has said to do evergreen items, a few times, for Christmas. Most people are looking for gifts, so people aren’t looking to buy something like a Christmas themed item, that the person will open on Christmas Day, and then not be able to use it after that. I mean, of course, you have families looking to buy matching shirts or ornaments, but generally speaking just upload your evergreen stuff, more so. Digital may be different, I’m not sure, but I have heard him say to do evergreen stuff. Like he said here, if you aren’t a Christmas store, don’t be adding Christmas ornaments, so I would imagine that applies to some of the other things too. Now, this may be different for sellers who have been on Etsy for years, but, as a new store, he says to stick with evergreen.
@etsyconsultant 10 ай бұрын
Hi, you should upload evergreen listings right from the start, and if you have Christmas themed items you can load them as well, just don't list too fast, 1 item a day is fine.
@etsyconsultant 10 ай бұрын
Hi, yes basically stick with evergreen, but they can try Christmas items to see if they can make some sales, but overall it is best to stick to mostly evergreen if you want long term success on Etsy.

If two different listings have the same conversion rate, but they are different prices, I’m guessing Etsy would favour the higher priced item as this means more money for them. Any thoughts?
@etsyconsultant 10 ай бұрын
Hi, if two listings have the same conversion rate, that is not where Etsy would start. Etsy will look at historical quality score first, one item might only have 20 visits a month and make 2 sales, but another item might have 200 visits a month and make 20 sales. The item with 20 sales is going to get higher visbility.
