the holidays are quickly approaching. one of the keys to being found on etsy is to use your tags wisely. one of the ways that admins searches for items for storque articles and etsy finds is by searching for key words.

if you don’t already know this, the storque publishes a monthly blog post entitled "from etsy’s merchandising desk". in it you’ll find what the coming month’s trends will be. search through the article and look for the key words that they’ll be hunting for.

treasury makers will also be looking for those key words and trends.
i also use tags when searching for items for our friday finds.

to get a bird's eye view of the keys included in this post, just click on the pictures.
