ETSY Shop SEO Giveaway

I love giveaways, especially the giveaways that I am hosting. :-)


** The Giveaway: There will be a drawing for one ETSY Shop SEO service for every 10 responses to this blog entry: 10 entries = 1 prize, 20 entries = 2 prizes, etc. Each Etsy shop can only enter once but each entry from another Etsy shop that mentions your shop will give you another entry in the drawing. If 5 of your friends mention your shop, you will be entered 6 times; once for your own shop blog comment and 5 more for each time you are mentioned in another comment.

** In Your Comment: write about your own online Etsy shop - what you make and sell.

** The Prize: An Etsy Shop SEO includes, Keyword Research for the products or services you are selling through your shop and a detailed report on exactly how to use these keywords in your shop in the shop title, section names, shop welcome text, product titles and product descriptions. I also include link building tips that can be used to improve your shop rankings in the search results.

** The Drawing: will be held on Saturday, May 15. Entries can be made through Midnight, May 14 (Central Standard Time). The winner will be posted here on my blog on Monday, May 17, and through
my Facebook page,
my Twitter account,
my SEO Web Design Shop on Etsy and
my Graphic Design Shop on Etsy.

Feedback from one shop owner, http://www.MadeWithLovingHands.etsy.com: "What a fantastic help this has been. You did a great review and pointed out some very useful changes for my shop! If you are struggling with relevancy this will help."

SEO is complex and difficult to understand. Etsy.com has added SEO functions to all Etsy shops. SEO can be very beneficial when understood and incorporated correctly into a Web site or blog.

Most Etsy shop owners have never heard of SEO and struggle with optimizing their Etsy shops. Despite every effort to understand and incorporate SEO, most of the Etsy shops I have seen have made mistakes with their SEO efforts.

I have been designing and optimizing web sites since early 2003 and have been successful in getting my SEO customers to the first page or even the top of the search results for the products or services they are selling. My 30+ years in computer programming background helps in understanding the logic behind search engine optimization and I can help Etsy shop owners improve the number of visitors to their shops as well as rank high on the search engine results.

  5. I have been taking photos of almost everything ever since my parents gave me a Kodak Brownie Camera in 1956. It is a family thing because my brother and sister takes photos also. My sister, lives in Alaska - just gorgeous. My brother is in NYC and takes completely different photos. I have listed both of them in my shop with the blessing of Etsy Admin. My favorite is flowers - and all of God's creations.

  23. This seo stuff seems to be getting more complicated by the minute. I could do with some advise, thanks for the giveaway!

  24. Wow this is a fabulous giveaway! Glad I found it through teamCAC.

    I sell pillows, handbags, pouches, totes, and am always looking for new avenues. I love to use designer fabric and vintage finds. Old stuff inspires me!

    I don't always have enough time to keep my shop full, sometimes it gets down to 10-15 items, so SEO help would be much appreciated since I am not able to keep up with the "list often, renew often" tactic on Etsy.

    I'd also like to mention anycards, she is a good friend of mine and if I can give her another entry then that's great!
