I've not had anything up on Etsy for ages because I don't have the time to continually add items to keep myself at the top of the list (as well as that I find posting each individual item - all of my products are OOAK - so time consuming as to be worthless. If I spend so much time on uploading items for sale, how can be producing more items? I found I would manage to just get them up online the day before a market (well, in the night, actually), then sell some of them at market making the etsy item obsolete. <br />I would love to be able to upload, say, 10 items at once using, for example, a csv file. FB Payvment allows this and I'm working on having that as my shop. The negatives there is their postage costing system which doesn't allow for some of the quirks in our Australian weight/size, distance pricing system. :o\<br /> Keep up the good work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994850265934664349.post-43702847448876442952011-08-24T15:50:58.806-07:002011-08-24T15:50:58.806-07:00Very thought provoking, thank you.

I use 'scarf' quite a lot, and 'felt' as separate tags because people might search either.<br />Still getting my head around this new search and tagging, though. :o) Thanks for your post.Gina https://www.blogger.com/profile/02554521959265109063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994850265934664349.post-39512833184084970222011-08-24T05:22:24.454-07:002011-08-24T05:22:24.454-07:00I think relevancy has to be a good thing, but I kn...I think relevancy has to be a good thing, but I know what you mean about thinking people don't know to look for your stuff until they see it... I thought exactly the same about my flowers. But I have recently discovered that people do actually search for 'artificial flowers' quite often - it had never occurred to me to use that as a tag before - doh!Helen Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17360142897304650781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7994850265934664349.post-65420160256385089372011-08-24T03:57:16.196-07:002011-08-24T03:57:16.196-07:00As a shopper I think relevancy is more important t...As a shopper I think relevancy is more important that recency... when I search for something I want to get results for that, even if it's a two months old listing!<br /><br />And yeah, once you see a felt toucan... you know you NEED one! ;)Pilihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05235628363081574896noreply@blogger.com
