@@dylanjahraus I do! I just opened it. I'm working on putting up listings right now 😊
That is great, I wish you and your shop success!! What questions do you have so far about Etsy? :)

If you need help. Feel free to shoot me a message on IG so we can talk more about your plans and goals. You can also book a call to me here: calendly.com/dylanjahraus/program-strategy-call-eva :)
You are amazing!
Thank you for your kind words!
You always say the title is only 10% of SEO and then NEVER tell us what makes up the other 90%! You always tell us how to do the titles after telling us it's only 10%. I really need the breakdown, like a pie chart of what makes up SEO and how important each component is. That would be very helpful.
Thank you for reaching out. Let’s chat more in instagram, would love to see what I can do to help. @DylanJahraus, mention the code “ETSY1”. See you there!
Because she sells that in the course.. the main way she makes 💰
Checklist, please. Thank you very much
Hey! Thanks, feel free to reach out to me on IG @DylanJahraus and I’ll send you the checklist!
Your just amazing keep me check and re check
thank you!!!
Dylan you are amazing !! I wish I could put you in my pocket! I watch every video! Question...does it matter or make a difference if you place comas or slashes within the SEO? or none at all just the words?
Thank you so much!! Thank you for reaching out. Let’s chat more in instagram, would love to share more, @DylanJahraus, mention the code “ETSY1”.
Commas do not effect the seo with titles according to Etsy
Checklist!

New subbie!! I am just starting on Etsy and i just sold my first order lol but i have paid for etsy ads and i don't see very much traffic to my site. It's funny that even though i paid for etsy ads it shows that the people favoring my item or clicks and views are more organic visits and searches than etsy ads. I want to find the way of getting sales up before i launch mu shopify store in March
Hi, I have also face this similar issue during my early stage of the business but thanks today, I have be able to over come it. If you don't mind, Am ready to share my knowledge.
I just started a month ago. No sales yet and recently started to get some views. My listings are still very small - under 50 and have been adding up new listings almost on a daily basis. Your videos have been insightful so far and I have been taking down notes. It is different from other entrepreneurs that usually explain the same fluff stuff.
Could you send me a DM on IG with your shop link? My team would love to take a look and see if we might be a great fit for you. Handle is @DylanJahraus. :)
Wow, thank you for sharing these tips! Before I contact you for a shop review I’m going to clean up my store with your checklist 😊
Glad it was helpful! Have you connected with me on IG yet?
@@dylanjahraus no not yet, I will reach out when I organize my shop up a little bit more with your checklist so I don’t waste your time. Thanks!
That is alright. Reach out to me anytime. :)
What you can advise to 3d printing Thaks Adam
Let's talk about your concern on my IG @DylanJahraus. And will see if we might be a great fit for you. :)
i saw many videos and yours is unique
Thank you for your support! I appreciate you! How long have you had your shop?
Always great content. just have a quick question. would you recommend free shipping and just adding the cost to the product? or have buyers pay for shipping? thx.
Thank you so much! This is a great question. I would be happy to get you more information on this if you would please reach out to me on IG :) Use GROWTH1 as a code in the message
I applided for the free weekly checklist, but it's not a weekly checklist as shown in the video. Maybe there's a mix-up with the link?
What would be a good profit margin when starting if I'm going for a lower price point to get sales?
Checklist please. Thank you
Hey! Thanks, feel free to reach out to me on IG @DylanJahraus and I’ll send you the checklist!
Hi Dylan! The 16-point checklist you have linked below the video is not the same one you show in the actual video. Where do we go for the one in the video? Thanks!
Please reach out to me on IG and we will chat! Its @DylanJahraus you will just need to add GROWTH1 as a code in the message :)
Hello❤ step 4 pricing , do you recommmend to have a 40% -50% sales daily or just a small price without sales discount? Thank you so much for your advice ❤❤❤love your videos
Would love to share more on this! If you want to send me a message on Instagram @DylanJahraus we'll chat, use the code "GROWTH-5". Thank you!
I was wondering the same thing. Looks like there was no answer?
@@melissap.9404 we can only find the answer if we join Dylan course, it is not a free advice
She really provides valuable content. Thank you so much and I recommend you launch your Etsy course which specifically focuses on Etsy's old sellers. Seriously, I am ready to pay $1000 for your course because you provide value to your audience so I'm pretty sure that when you launch your course it must be a high-end course.
Thank you. I get views from Twitter as well. Was wondering if you agree with Twitter promotions.
At 10:48, the newly created title does not have any commas. Do commas break up the chance at ranking for long tail keywords? Should I be writing titles without commas?
Reach out if you'd like to learn more about how to do SEO or if you'd like to see the results of our students after doing SEO with our strategies! dylanjahraus.com/contact
Etsy say commas do not matter
Can you show us what it means to be optimized for both mobile and desk top?
I cover this in the modules. I'd love to chat more, feel free to send me a message on IG @DylanJahraus and we'll chat more about your options. Make sure to mention the code "ETSY1". Talk soon!
Whats the google chrome extension for pinterest pls?
I have a video about How to use Pinterest. kzhead.info/sun/mKqpeMOsloWLjZs/bejne.htmlsi=1J0zfIljC1ij40uc
Intrigued by Dylan's strategy to reach 1,000 Etsy sales! This video unpacks 5 practical steps & a free checklist - perfect for new Etsy sellers looking for traction.
Thank you! Do you have a shop already? 🙂
How would you do pricing when doing print on demand? You say not to do full price but to make a profit with doing print on demand it's always 2x the original retail price, plus shipping. So how do i grow my etsy store if it seems like I have to price my listing at full price? If that makes sense.
Please reach out to me on IG and we will chat! Its @DylanJahraus you will just need to add GROWTH1 as a code in the message :)
Really hoping this works so far I've been on Etsy for a month and a half, 1 sale and a ton of add to carts/favorites.. but I'd really like to increase that buying portion.
Ohhh, have you seen my other videos? I have one for growing sales. Let me know if you need the link. :)
@@dylanjahraus not yet I found your channel yesterday! I’d love some more videos, thanks!

My handle is @DylanJahraus dylanjahraus.mykajabi.com/pl/2148140185
Hi Dylan, I’ve heard different opinions about this, but do you think it’s ok to have POD products and digital products in the same store?
This is a really great question. I would be happy to direct to that answer. Please reach out to me on IG and we will chat! Its @DylanJahraus you will just need to add GROWTH1 as a code in the message :)
It is really annoying that this is the answer to EVERY comment on here. I understand that you have a coaching business, but some of these questions are clarifications to the video of free information that you put out. Your "loss leader" if you will. By your own account, it should be high quality, which to me would mean clarity on some of these things. I really don't think some of these questions are so far out that they shouldn't get an answer without having to hunt you down on another platform. I do find your information valuable and would consider your coaching, but this commenting strategy seems a bit gimmicky and is a real turn-off.
@@melissap.9404 I agree, I’m not chasing down an answer from her even though she does put out some good content. There are plenty of other good content creators that are more than happy to answer questions without the royal run around.
I have a few questions, since we start at a lower price to increase sales, how would we know when to up the price for full price? How do we go about that? Also, how do we know what orice we should start at, so we do not loose too much money?
@dylanjahraus one more question, is it ok to start off with more than one product??
Can you shoot me a message on IG with your shop link? Let's talk more there. My handle is @DylanJahraus.
May I ask the name of your Etsy account? I feel like I could learn a lot from your listings about SEO

@@dylanjahraus Thank you!
I thought when it comes designing for niches is the next step from having done a proper market research before to understand what's trending and has sales traction also cus technically targeting people who's spending habits are more consistent and rather pricier is technically also "niching" for hight ticket customers, at that point you could even say you have to analyze lifestyles? I mean niching down is a good way for someone who is just starting to have some hands on practice with sales, i got confused..
Totally understand why you're confused, we definitely work very different. Can we take this conversation over to IG? Here's my handle @DylanJahraus. :)
I am planning to launch an Etsy shop in the fall (can't do it right now as where I live mothers on maternity leave can't earn additional income or create businesses). I am creating my product portfolio and this encouraged me to expand the product offering, as I was sure I needed to start with only one type of product and leave other type of products for when the the shop becomes established.
Happy to share some tips with you. Let's connect and discuss this further on IG? My handle is @DylanJahraus add GROWTH1 in the message

Let's keep the conversation going over IG. You can find me @DylanJahraus. Looking forward to chatting with you! :)
So are you suggesting to have a loss leader that we loose money on? And keep putting money out of our pocket for each sale until we reach 1000 sales? That’s insane
Absolutely not! A loss leader isn't something that you actually lose money on. It's just a marketing term.
@@dylanjahraus well, a loss leader is usually something you lose money on. Hence the name. So why don’t you explain what you actually mean. Because neither in your video nor here in your answer to me you explained what you actually mean. Neither do you explain what you mean by 10% is SEO and the rest is something else. You leave a lot of open questions, why? To sell your course?
I'd love to chat with you about this and exchange more insights, would definitely love to hear you out. Please send me a message on IG, my handle is @DylanJahraus
I got to 1026 sales and got suspended by Etsy
Awwww, that is so sad and frustrating. Have you tried to appeal or contact support?
What did you get suspended for? I'm just starting this and not sure of the exact processes etc.
@@danny51577 i don’t know what for. Etsy has never sent me an email explaining why I got suspended and never replied to my emails or appeal. It’s ridiculous. Good luck to you!
