    Etsy SEO for Woodworkers: Get Your Listings Seen

    If your Etsy shop isn’t getting sales, it’s probably not because your woodworking isn’t good enough; it’s because buyers can’t find your listings. I went from $100 months to $15,000 months on Etsy once I finally understood how Etsy search actually works. In this video, I’m breaking down Etsy SEO and showing you exactly how to apply it to woodworking listings using real, copy-and-paste examples. You’ll learn how to stop guessing, stop using “woodworker language,” and start using the words buyers are actually typing into Etsy. If you sell woodworking projects on Etsy, or want to, this video will help you get your listings in front of the right people without keyword stuffing or tech overwhelm. 👉 Ready to go deeper?
