Etsy Tips & Tricks

As an Etsy seller, you know that creating a visually appealing online shop is crucial for attracting customers and driving sales.

Should you put your Etsy shop on Vacation Mode or not? Every year, as summer nears, we hear that question. Etsy offers this option, which will temporarily deactivate your listings.

Every Etsy shop is unique, and there’s no one-size-fits-all number of listings for your shop. The number of listings you should have depends on many factors. You can find them in this article.

What to do if you stumble on a situation and get your Etsy account suspended?‍ Etsy suspends or bans accounts that are believed to have violated Etsy’s policies. Being a big platform like Etsy, there are automatic algorithms in place that flag shops for violations.
