New pictures Etsy tips that have worked so far...

So since im un-employed I decided to really try and get my etsy store revamped. First i took all new pictures of my prints in frames, so people could see what they would like like all set up and ready to hang in their homes. Plus in my opinion it adds "front page appeal". It's rare that I see flat artwork on the front page, I think photographing them this way allowed me to play more with angles and framing, etsy loves interesting photos on the FP.

Then i read on a forum somewhere how the first 2 words in the title and descriptions of your listings are so important, that google sees those first 2 words. It also said that you should repeat those keywords from your title in your description. im not talking about "title tag stuffing" more like, smart titling... like this listing here

Anyway, since iv revamped everything iv been getting a few hearts a day pretty steadily and it wasnt like that before. Iv also been tracking my views and hearts at statsy.org and see improvment there too...

hopefully i will have a sale soon cuz iv been unemployed for 2 weeks now... and it sucks. id really like to be able to have some real profit come from this and not just have a pretty store on the web.
