Etsy SEO and SSO Guide for Handmade Sellers (Ebook and Workbook)

Description

Etsy SEO and SSO Guide for Handmade Sellers (aka “The Etsy Money-Making Guide”)

You’ve heard of SEO.

Maybe you even understand the basic concept of SEO.

But taking the time to fully dive into that fancy-sounding word (plus learning any Etsy-specific tips) keeps creeping its way down your to-do list.

Here’s the deal.

Focusing on Etsy’s search engine optimization (SEO) and weaving in strategic seasonal selling optimization (SSO) is KEY to your success. Much more urgent than the ‘When I Have Extra Time’ section in your planner.

And the big secret is that it’s NOT HARD.

Instead of running away from a pretentious-sounding initialism, let’s just go ahead and replace ‘SEO and SSO’ with what it REALLY means:

Money. Making.

What other sellers have said about the Etsy SEO & SSO Guide:

• “I’m obsessed with this guide! My first sale was December 2019 and since then I have gotten a lot of information on how to help your shop, but this is COMPLETE! It’s literally everything you need to know all in one. So many things I didn’t know I should be doing to optimize my shop. It’s FULL of information that’s actually useful and easy to do! The worksheets are pure gold, exactly what I need.” – Brandi
• “This guide was extremely informative. I completed all of the steps to set up an Etsy months ago but never pursued it. I didn’t understand it honestly even though I shop there daily. This e-guide explained everything and the steps were very easy to complete. After reading over this guide, I’m no longer afraid of stepping out with Etsy. My favorite part was explaining product names…another favorite part was explaining tags and backward planning. I was already on the right track but you confirmed it for me. This is genius and I can’t wait to implement them. I would recommend this guide to any business owner that’s ready to step it up a notch.” – Arlana

Whether you are just starting out as a maker and seller on Etsy or have an established shop, you are certain to have at least one a-ha moment when reading this ebook.

• “Absolutely loved this e-book. As I am beginning my journey getting my business off the ground this book was jam-packed with easy-to-understand and helpful information. It not only was a page-turner (I said it, a book on SEO/SSO info that is a page-turner!) it made me excited to jump into my work even more! I would 100% recommend this to anyone getting started, or looking to up their traffic and overall presence on Etsy. The section on alt-text was really helpful and I think really important for people to be doing for so many reasons – so glad you called this out and walked through it!” – Whitney
