1 page on Etsy

You just need better stats on all features from your niche competition to get placed at number 1.

That easy.

If you pay a service or use a bot remember as time goes on your account can get ban why it not advised unless it part of your method chum and burn accounts.
 
The traffic is not very huge. Small amount like 20-30 visits per day. I agree that the traffic will hurt conversion rates. I think the thing that made it rank well was the favs+ATCs.
How many seller's accounts did you use to rank it on the first page?
 
Around 30-40 favs from seller accounts each day for 3-4 days.
So you've been using around 100 accounts to make a product rank higher in about 3-4 days.
I'm trying to replicate the same structure for my own personal shop and I don't know where to start. I'm thinking of setting up a raspberry pi with ghost browser and see if I can build on that.
 
Around 30-40 favs from seller accounts each day for 3-4 days.
I'm confused about the phrase "Seller Accounts". To me that implies accounts of actual Etsy stores (sellers). Are you saying you're somehow creating Etsy stores in bulk to have access to the accounts? Or do you mean customer accounts?

I'm not creating the accounts. I bought a gig on fiverr that sends favorites to my listings. The favorites are mostly from seller accounts. My best guess is they're using some etsy team where sellers favorite each other's items.

Ahhhh... that makes sense. Thanks for the help man!

You are right. I mistakenly wrote seller accounts instead of buyer accounts. But he was actually getting the favs from seller accounts.
 
Sure, I'll try :)

First let me start by saying this is a technique I used 3-4 years ago. So I'm sure somethings have changed, but judging by how poorly Etsy's devs are... I'm pretty sure it will probably still work today.
When I was doing this, I was able to rank in the first page for tons of competitive search terms related to jewelry. So back then this was a pretty effective method and I never heard anyone talking about it. So I just kept it to myself :)

I'll go over what I did step by step.

First you are going to need to create a listing and optimize it for what ever keyword you want to rank for.

Let's say we are going to target the term "men's wedding band".

So I would create a proper listing complete with description, images etc. Something I actually wanted to sell.

Then I would create a list of keywords related to that term and save them in a text file to be used later. So for "men's wedding band" I would add things like "unique wedding band" "gold wedding band"
"silver mens ring". Create around 15-25 related search terms.

Then using Zennoposter and some good proxies I would create a bot that would take a search term from the list of keywords or search terms, enter into the Etsy's search bar and do a search.

The bot would then pick a random listing(help to reduce footprint) from those results and modify the HTML for that listing. It would change the title, shop name, item link, shop id, listing id and the price etc. To match the all the details from the listing I created in my shop.

Then it would click on the modified listing. This would trick Etsy into thinking my listing was on the first page when I clicked it.

That was the basic setup.

Later on I started to create tons of accounts (with zennoposter) and use them to favorite items of mine after clicking through a search term. Which also helped a lot.

I would also get the bot to click around my shop a little bit on random items. Try to make it look like they are looking at more than one item in my shop and not just bouncing after clicking on the modified listing.

Then every 3-4 days I would rotate a new list of search terms and replace the ones being used. Then I would keep an eye on my stats and watch to see how much traffic I was getting on the previous keywords which the bot was no longer clicking on.

I would run these bot daily on around 10-15 different listings all with different search terms that I wanted to rank for. Also rotating which ones I was sending fake traffic to. I was always trying to do stuff to reduce any footprint.

All in all it worked well and helped me make sales. But after a while, I got bored and fed up with the whole Etsy thing so I just dumped it.

Hope that explained it a bit better. :)

Lol, seems the effort and reward ratio wasn't high enough to keep going.

Out of curiosity, how much revenue were you able to generate on Etsy?
 
Clicks on your listing for search results is a factor.

I used to run 2 Etsy shops and the easiest way to boost my listings was to use Zennoposter to click my own listings.

I would pick a keyword like “diamond engagement ring” and few related to it like “unique diamond promise ring” etc.

Then I would use zennoposter with some good proxies and do a search for the keyword.

I would then take amy listing on the first page. And edit the HTML(title, listing id,shop name etc) using ZP.

Then using ZP just click on the modified listing.

The Etsy search engine doesn’t check to make sure your listing should be on the front page. It’s not as sophisticated as bing or google.

So it’s pretty easy to manipulate.

When I was testing it, it was possible to use keywords that were not even related to my shop and get my listing to show up for those searches. I was able to boost ranking for a jewelry listing for the search term “wool gloves” lol

Of course there were more steps to my method. But that’s the basic concept that worked for me.
hello , thank you for all the information , i just have 3 questions :
1. what proxies have you used (type and supplier )
2. did you verified those accounts that you created by email.
3. how do you manage to click on your listing when you search for it ?
Thanks in advance
 
With the help of Zennoposter.

did anyone try to send traffic from google directly to a product? Can it influence the rank?
 
The traffic is not very huge. Small amount like 20-30 visits per day. I agree that the traffic will hurt conversion rates. I think the thing that made it rank well was the favs+ATCs.
Thanks for your great information.
May I know how many we need to do ATCs Per Day.

how would ZP click on the modified listing? The modified link is not on the etsy 1st page result so how can a person or bot click it?
 
Hi Guys.. i think we should keep this page Active and share our experiences,
i was able to rank three listings on first page with the help of some Fiverr guy, he did it in two weeks and he told me it would stay for 20 to 30 days..
unfortunately, it didnt stay more then few days. during the rank of my listings i noticed a strange traffic in a period of time of the day, and after few days my listings start to get back more and more
i was thinking if anyone have experienced this, i think someone in purpose did that. it makes me scared and worried if this is true. any Ideas??
 
I tried using etsygeeks(dot) org and work fine for me so far, Try to check maybe it will work for you too.
