How Etsy Shoppers Find Your Shop

You more than likely have seen some really bizarre keywords on your Google Analytics account. If you are wondering why, I have an article here: How to make your Etsy Google Friendly

Since our shops are under a main website (etsy.com), it is hard to figure out what keywords people used to find your specific shop on Etsy. The good news is that you can track how shoppers within Etsy find your shop using keywords.

To set this up, follow these steps (if the pictures are too small for you just click on them for bigger versions):

1. Log-in to Google Analytics
2. Click "edit" see the heart in the picture
   
3. In the top right of the "Main Website Profile Information" box click "edit"
4. Under "Site Search" change the settings to match the picture below

5. Click "Save Changes"
   

This update will take at most 24 hours to start working. After you wait for it to update your settings you can come back and follow these instructions to see the results.

1. Log in to Google Analytics
2. Click "View report"
3. Click "Content"
4. Click "Site Search"
