Why Do Etsy Sellers Need Specialised SEO Services?
Running a successful Etsy shop requires more than just creating beautiful handmade items or sourcing vintage treasures. With over 7.5 million active sellers in the UK marketplace, standing out from the crowd demands a strategic approach to search engine optimisation. Our technical SEO services help Etsy entrepreneurs navigate the unique challenges of both Etsy’s internal search algorithm and Google’s ranking factors.
