4. Do live events
craft shows and such. Get your business cards out there in person.

5. If you're working with Esty but not with Squidoo
Edited on Sat Feb-19-11 02:36 PM by rocktivity
Get this ebook. It will show you how Squidoo "lenses" can drive traffic to your Esty products, and it's free.

6. Etsy has a lot of articles on how to promote your work.
Twitter is one, Facebook, blogging, renewing your items, (so they get to the front page at Etsy again)

If you get on Etsy they are directly connected to Google analytics and you just have to sign up, put your IP address in and it is amazing what kind of information it can give you.

Like where your traffic is coming from. Of course graphs to show page views. And a bunch of other stuff.

I have gotten the most views from DU pretty much all the time!!!

7. My daughter's friend has been wildly successful on Etsy
and now my daughter is on etsy too, selling jewelry. Why are people etsy bashing? Just curious. :shrug:
