Low Views Today! Only in the mid 200's! Lowest all month!

Here at 8:50pm I have only 206 views from Etsy search!  Easily the lowest all month.  I will probably end today in the mid 200's!

Only 1 small sale, too.

I still have orders to pack and ship.

311 Views Yesterday

I did make it to 300 views yesterday.  Even though it looked like I wouldn't.  I finished the thursday with 311 views from Etsy search, more than 1,300 total views and 3 orders.

It is still disappointing that I had only 33 views from Google!  Wow.

I have orders to pack and ship today.  Tea cups, of course.

Probably less than 300 Views Today!

For only the 2nd time this month.

Here right before 10pm at 9:56 I have only 268 views from Etsy search. And 25 of those are from my faux fur coat.  If not for that, I would not even be close to 300.

It has still been a fairly productive day.  Got some orders packed & shipped. Got some thigns taken care of outside.  Did some shopping.

I have orders still to pack & ship. Including the coffee table and chair.  Hope they make it. Wish I charged enough shipping.

352 Views on wed & 323 Views Yesterday

So I finished with more than 300 views from Etsy search on tuesday and wed.  Views are staying high.

But....I really owe that to my faux fur coat.  It is getting more than 40 search views each day.

It would have sold by now, but it needs cleaned.  And that would be expensive..

I still have orders to pack and ship.  I might actually get the glass top for the coffee table to Philly safely!  I've been packing it tonight and I think I did a great job making a corrugated sandwich.

Time for bed..

346 Views Yesterday, Because of my Sassoon faux fur coat

I finished yesterday, a monday, with 346 views from Etsy search.  And that was because I had 49 search views for my faux fur coat.

I also had only 1,334 total views.

Only 46 google views.

It was a fairly productive day.  I got some orders shipped, pics taken, a couple sales and got a couple large heavy, fragile items packed tonight. And it was a beautiful sunny day for most of the day.

I shouldn't have lowered my price on my chair. I had it for $250 and lowered it to $190.  And it last night.

406 Views Yesterday, a Sunday!

It was an ok day in my Etsy shop yesterday.  I finished with 406 views from Etsy search, 1,570 total views and 4 sales.  3 things to the one lady and a good tea cup sale.

46 from Google.  117 Other views.

I still have orders to find and pack.

And outdoors projects for today.

138 Views Just past 12 Noon

It is looking to be another 300 view day.  I have 138 views from Etsy search at 12:13pm.

On person bought 3 things separately right after midnight.  I guess they were browsing and just kept picking things out and buying them instead of adding them to their cart and buying them all at once.

I still have orders to pack!  Large, fragile items.  Big tea cup orders.

And outdoor things to do.  And the weather will be changing on tuesday and wed!

373 Views Yesterday!

Views jumped back up yesterday.  It was a saturday though.  That is the way it has been. Saturday and sunday are usually my high view days

I finished yesterday with 373 views from Etsy search, only 1,319 total views and 4 orders for a decent amount of revenue.

Only 34 google views.  Still disappointing.  Probably from my repeating words in my titles and repeating the title as the first line in my description.

200 Views right before 3:30pm

I have 200 views from Etsy search right at 3:29pm.  It should be a 300 view day.

It has been a godo day of sales.  3 good sales for a good amount of revenue.  BUT....

I did not charge enough shipping for the painting. AND I don't think I charge enough for the cat figurine either.  Ggrrrrr. lol

I still have orders to pack.

303 Views Yesterday!

I did make it to 300 views from Etsy search yesterday.  It was probably because I wrote about it. lol.

I finished yesterday, a friday, with 303 views from Ety search, 1,571 total views and 2 small sales.

51 from Google and 101 "Other" views. So even with all the hundreds of additional listings, and if "other" views are indirect google views, my Google views have not increased much at all.  I guess I can't expect much from Google. .

Today will be LESS than 300 Views, TOO!

Here at 9:24pm I have only 246 views from Etsy search.  My search views/hour is only about 8 or less.

So I will have only about 270 views form Etsy search today!  Wow.

The lowest since last month.

Only 296 Views Yesterday!! The 1st Time ALL Month Below 300!

Wow. I did not see that coming.

I finished yesterday with only 296 views from Etsy search.  That is the first time ALL OCTOBER That I've had less than 300.

Hope it is not the expected drop.

Today is looking not good, too.

It's 11:35pm. I probably won't reach 300 search views!

I have only 291 views from etsy search here at 11:35!!  I've gotten only 3 search views in the past 40 minutes!

I won't reach 300 views from Etsy search for the first time ALL MONTH!  Wow.

I may not reach 300 views today!

I have only 266 views from Etsy search here at 10:06pm.

This would make the 1st day all month not reaching 300 views from Etsy search!

Because I've sold some of my most searched tea cups??

348 Views Yesterday!

It was a very good day for my shop.

I finished yesterday with 248 views from Etsy search and 4 sales.

The end of the month actually seems better for sales than the beginning???

Only 48 views from Google yesterday.  Still disappointing a year later.

139 Views at 12 Noon

I have made 2 small sales early after midnight and I have 139 views from Etsy search here at 12:03pm. 13 from google

Views are staying high.  I am wondering when they will drop.  That will be sad and very disappointing.

394 Views Yesterday!

Wow. Etsy search views are staying high.  I finished yesterday, a tuesday, with 394 views from Etsy searcy!  And 1,414 total views.

And a great tea cup order of 13 tea cups for a nice amount of revenue.  To Canada.  And he wants them only shipped 2 at a time.  That is helpful to me, too.

Only 30 Google views.  I had a recent day of 64, but other than that, they have gone down.
"Other" views yesterday were only 84.

It was a productive day though.  I worked a couple hours, too.

I woke up this morning to 2 sales.  That was nice to see.

I have orders to pack!!  I have to find a couple boxes.

417 Views Yesterday!

I finished yesterday, a sunday, with 417 views from Etsy search and 1,717 total views.

Only 1 sale though. A tea cup.  After nearly 9 years of selling and all the tithes and seeds. I guess I have choices to make.

After nearly 9 YEARS of Selling EVERY DAY, I sold a Tea cup Today

I guess I have choices to make. I keep giving away the extra cash, too. I nee dto stop that. And work onmy shop less.

I am going to let it go too.

I am going to let my shop and house go.

I will go get a job somewhere and try to start over. And tithe only this time. I need to stop buying and stop lsiting new. Just let things expire. Let my shop and house go.

294 Views at 7pm!

I am glad to have so many views here at 7pm.  I have 294 views from Etsy search and 1,115 total views.

But only 1 sale.  A tea cup.

All of these hundreds and hundreds of extra search views really don't mean anything.  They are not translating into sales.

Even in june with the record low search views I was making regular sales. More than now.

I should work on my shop LESS.

147 Views at 12 Noon!

The high views are continuing!

Here at 12 noon I have 147 views from Etsy search.  And 525 total views.

And I just sold a nice tea cup.

It is a cool day. I should have brought the credenza in when it was warm this week.

I have work to do outside and in.

50 Views at 2:30am!

I am glad that this morning after midnight, a sunday, that I already have 52 views from Etsy search here at 2:35am!

Maybe another 400 view day??

417 Views Yesterday! High Total Views

Wow. I am very glad to have finished yesterday, a saturday, with 417 views from Etsy search.

It was a day of high total views with 1,691.

I had 2 orders.  1 was a very good one of 5 valuable items. And only to New York state, too. Not international.  I feel much better about shipping a large box of large fragile items there than internationally.

Today, laundry? Take pics? Go to the thrift store? Organize? Inside work? Outside work? bring in credenza? Put chairs outside?

I have a busy day ahead of me.

Bid Drop in Views Today??

Here after midnight at 12:28am I have only 2 TWO views from Etsy search!

Is that an indicator of the day?  Possibly.

340 Views Yetserday! More than 1,800 Total Views!

It was a high view day yesterday, a friday.  I finished with 340 views from Etsy search.  Higher than I thought.

And I finished with 1,873 total views!  Wow.  That's high for me.

And 4 sales.  2 of them were books.

I have orders to pack & ship!

200 Views before 5pm!

Here at 4:50pm I have 203 views from Etsy search!  Glad to be this high. I did not expect it. It should be anotehr 300 view day. That will keep the streak for this month going.  Every day has been more than 300 views from Etsy search.

Time for some outdoor work while the weather is nice.  Then order packing and shipping by noon tomorrow.

306 Views Yesterday; Even More of a Drop Today?

So yesterday I did finish with 306 views from etsy search.  A drop from 400 the previous day.

And now here at 1:26 am I have only 13 views from Etsy search.  So it is more of a drop and I won't reach 300 today??  For the first time ALL MONTH??

I am just waiting for my views to drop again.  This has been too good. And Etsy messes with things.

1 Sale for $8 so far Today

Wow. I have paid all my tithes and then some.

Here today right after 9 pm I have made 1 sale, a book, for $8.

After nearly 9 YEARS of selling and working on selling and working on my shop EVERY DAY I have made $8 in sales today.

I keep donating more than 10%, too.

Donating more than 10% has not benefited me much. I've had to donate so much just to make sales.

People were on ebay in the 90's, and probably without tithing, and making as much as I made last year and might make this year.

So I should just go back to the TITHE ONLY.

I have even been recommending to people to tithe and more.

400 Views Yesterday! BIG Drop in Views Today!

Glad to have reached 400 Views from Etsy search yesterday.  With only 2 sales though.

Today, wow, it is looking like a big drop.....here at 9:23am I have only 76 views from Etsy search!
Wow. That is the lowest ALL MONTH.

I might NOT reach 300 today!

371 Views Yesterday

I finished yesteday with 371 views from Etsy search.  But "only" 1,385 total views.

I have hundreds of extra visitors, but they are not browsing my shop.

I am really at where I was in the spring of 2013 when I had HUNDREDS fewer listings.  Back then I had 600-700 listings. And even then I would still be in the mid to upper 200's AND have a lot of days in the 300's.

Now, with hundreds more listings, I have hundreds more Etsy search views, but the same number of total views.

Only the 1 tea cup order for 2 tea cups yesterday.

All the tithing and seeding is not really translating into sales either.

HHhhhmmm.......I have decisions to make.

409 Views Yesterday!

Wow. I am still impressed by how high my views are.

Yesterday I finished with 409 views from Etsy search, 1,586 total views and the 1 tea cup sale.

Today has been a good day.  Good a good number of orders shipped, my friend treated me to lunch, then worked at her home, got paid, and came home to a nice sale of 2 tea cups.

Still have orders to pack and ship. Work the next 2 days with another friend and friday at the grounds keeping job.

Have to make it through the next 24 hours+ of rain!

300 Views before 8pm!

I am glad to have reached 300 views from Etsy search at 7:44pm.  Onlly the 1 sale right after midnight though.

All of these hundreds and hundreds of extra search views are really not equaling sales.  I was making good sales in june with record LOW views.

I got some orders packed.  Most of them.  Didn't get any new pics taken.  Work tomorrow. I won't get to take any new pics until saturday.

It is tv time.

200 Views before 3pm

I am glad to have reached 200 views here at 2:49 pm.  With 843 Total views.

446 Views Yesterday!! 2nd Highest View Day of All-Time!

Wow. I finished yesterday, a sunday, with 446 views from Etsy search!  AND 1, 752 total views!!

With 5 orders.

And 62 Google views.  The highest in a while.  With 110 "Other" views.

I also got a good number of pics taken.  Most of them turned out very good and good enough to use.

It was a productive day.

200 Views before 2pm!

Here at 1:57pm I already have 203 views from Etsy search!  Glad to do that!

178 Views just after 12 Noon!

Wow. It is another high view morning about to be another high view day.

Here at 12:08pm I have 178 views from Etsy search.  With 2 small sales.

18 from Google.  The most in a while. 43 "Other" views.

I got a lot of pics taken.  Mostly of tea cups. I will try to list some new ones today. And other things.

I have a lot of orders to pack and ship.

This is a critical time for me. Not sure how much longer I will be open or here.

357 Views Yesterday!

I am very glad to have gotten so many views from Etsy search yesterday!  I finished yesterday, a saturday, with 357 views from Etsy search.

No sales though.

And only 1,301 total views.

I have having 1,100-1,500 total views when I had 600-800 listings.

But I believe it is all because of the new listing page from august 2013.  It is not as easy for people to browse our shops now.  They are held captive in the one section and page.  Nothing I can do about that. I already have links to shop sections & my shop home page in each listing.

I have many shop things to do today.

316 Views Yesterday; More than 1,700 Total Views!

Glad to have reached 300 views from Etsy search yesterday AGAIN.  I finished with 316 views from Etsy search AND 1,772 TOTAL views. Wow. Very nice.

3 orders.  For only a decent amount of revenue.  No big revenue days recently.

I am having a good ocotober though.  Better than last october.

I still have a lot of orders to pack, to find and pack.

And a lot of different, new items to take pics of.   If I even should. I really don't sell much. I don't sell much furniture or lamps or art. Or jewelry. Or books.

Almost time for bed.

337 Views Yesterday! More than 1,700 Total Views!

Wow. I did not think I'd make 300 views from Etsy search yesterday when I had only about 95 at noon.  But I finished yesterday, a thursday, with 337 views from Etsy search!  Very glad about that.

I also finished with 1,722 total views!  Wow. That is a lot for me! It is about a record high for not having one item get recognition or some attention for my shop in a team or forum post.

Only 31 from Google. Disappointing.  110 "Other" views.

4 Orders yesterday, too.

Only 10% Growth This Year

I am on pace to grow only about 10% more than last year.  That is not that much at all. I grew by 100% each year for my first 3 years.

I hope I can equal what I did each of the past 2 years in 2015. It is a lot of work to earn as much and make as many sales as I have made each of the past 2 years.

I spent A LOT of money to make as much and as many sales as I did this year. I spent it ALL. To only about equal what I made last year.

I spent A LOT EVERY YEAR to make what I have made. AND I worked EVERY SINGLE DAY on my shop. I did NOT take one day off all year. I always did SOMETHING shop related each day.  And lived in a cluttered house.

But 10% growth is disappointing.

I might be better off getting a job.  Then I'd have my freedom and more cash. And wouldn't have to spend it all.

Get a job and an apartment???

It's fun shopping though.

I have choices to make.

Only 96 Views right after 12 Noon!!

Today is a big drop in search views.  Here at 12:11 I have only 96 views from Etsy search. High total views though at 597 with the 3 sales.

I got some pics taken.  They turned out ok.  Got a few new things listed.

I have orders to find and pack!

Big Drop in Views Today

I have only 67 views from Etsy search at 8:48am.  Which, overall, is still good.  But way less than I have been having the past few days for some reason.

Still have made 3 sales/2 orders already.

I have so much to do today and I did not get much sleep. I am tired.  I could use some sleep.

Big Drop in Views Today??

Only  7 Views from Etsy search at 12:33am!!  For this super high run I have been having in the teens and 20's in the midnight hour.

So todays views may end in the low 300's or even 200's.

399 Views Yesterday!!

Wow.  Theses so high views are still impressing me and making me wonder WHY???

I am very glad to have reached 399 views from Etsy search yesterday.  But with only 1 sale for 2 items.

All of these HUNDREDS of extra Etsy search views have not been translating into sales though.

I also finished yesterday with 1,597 Total Views!  One of the highest total view day without any type of outside activity.

Only 32 views from Google! 107 "Other" views.
And Google views were FIFTH on my traffic sources list!
For a while they were always second.

I have so much to do tomorrow.
Find items for ordres. Orders to pack and ship. Pics to take. Meet the guy to look at my chairs?? Cut grass?

It was a VERY productive day today!

I made a sale in the morning.  To go with the other nice sales I have been making the past week and a half.

I go to work with a friend to help with her yard work and before we go to her place we stop at the thrift store and I got 2 very nice chairs, 2 very nice watercolor paintings, 2 cool vintage drinking glasses, and a nnice poetry book!

Then she buys me lunch.

We work at her house and it goes well and get the work accomplished.

Then I get to meet the young neighbor kids and alex.  Have a nice talk in the breakfast room while waiting for the nice sausage she is making me.

I go play candyland with the young boy.

Then Alex talks about my tea and they all leave.

I have a very good sausage dinner she made for me.

On the ride home, she pays me generously and then we stop back at the thrift store and.....the cookie jar is still there!  And I buy it thanks to my lady friend!

And I come home to very high views in the 300's again!  And a request to look at my chairs.

Then...I find and buy a beautiful pink Aynsley fleur de lis tea cup!

Wow.  It has been such a productive day.  I am not sure why??? After as mad as I got recently things have still worked out well for me.

I am looking forward to tomorrow:  taking pics, packing & shipping my orders, maybe a chair sale and nice weather, thanks to the angels.

I hopefully will be able to get some sleep tonight.  And be able to enjoy tomorrow.

47 Views at 1:30am!

Holy heck.  I have 47 views from Etsy search at 1:33am!

But only 87 total views.

So people are NOT BROWSING.  My bounce rate is HIGH.

467 Views Yesterday!!!! HOly Heck!! A New ALL-TIME RECORD!

WOW.  I had 467 views from Etsy search yesterday!  Wow.

Never thought I'd see that many.  Never thought I'd reach 400 again. Never thought I'd pass my previous high of 441. I did that with HUNDREDS fewer listings, too.

But.....only 2 sales.  1 small brooch sale and a trio sale.

Would have thought I'd have a good number of sales with that high of search views.

1,474 total views.

43 Google views.  110 "Other" views.

300 VIews before 6:30pm on a wed!

I have 301 views from Etsy search at only 6:27pm!  Very glad to reach that.  It is encouraging.  At least for the near term.

Only 1 small sale.  A silver brooch that I sold too low. I did not raise my price and it probably was worth 50% more.

I should get very close to 400 views again.  I am guessing I will reach 375.

153 Views at Noon! High Listing Views in the 11 o'clock hour!

I am very glad to reach 153 views from Etsy search at 12 noon!  With 158 listing views in the 11 o'clock hour!  And 543 total views.

15 views from Google.  46 "Other" views.

No sales though.

I am kinda not wanting all these high views.  Because I believe I will be very let down and disappointed.  I believe they will drop ALOT some time, maybe this year even, and then I will be so mad and disappointed and discouraged again.  

I believe these high views are TEMPORARY. And that my shop is not growing. Not growing view-wise at least.

I have to organize a little and get teh credenza outside to get it looked at this evening.  I am guessing they are just being nosey and want to look.

143 Views at Noon

Glad to still be having high Etsy search views!  Here at 12 noon I have 143 views from Etsy search.  WIth 449 total views. And...I just sold my nice Aynsley Bailey tea cup I just listed only a day ago.  But I spent almost all of that money on ebay. lol.

I have gotten some pics taken.  Will try to list some new things. Find the brooch, and pack & ship my orders.

Back to work.

435 Views Yesterday!! Near an All-Time Record

WOw. I finished with 435 views from Etsy search yesterday!  Glad to see that!  It is so early too!!  Only the first week of october.

BUT, I reached my record high search view total of 441 with HUNDREDS LESS listings!

NO SALES though.  Only 1 sale that I will have to cancel.

All those search views, 36 hours worth of record high views, and no sales.

54 Google views.  120 "Other" views.

It was an ok day.  I got some pics taken.  The pics of tea cups turned out pretty good. The book choices weren't that good. Pack and ship orders tomorrow. And laundry?

173 Search Views at 12 Noon!! A New All-Time Record!

I am very glad to have reached 173 views from Etsy search here at 12 noon!  Witih 553 total views.

My previous record high was 167. I believe that was last spring?

This high views have been happening SO EARLY.  Only sept  & october.

It makes me wonder if they will just end up dropping before Christmas???  This month? Or next month??
Or after Christmas??

No sales today though, with all the abnormally, record high search views.

100 Views at 7am!

Wow.  This is the earliest I have reached 100 views from Etsy search since at least the first quarter of this year and maybe since the spring of LAST YEAR.

I had 100 views from Etsy search at 6:59am.

My record I think is 167 at 12 noon.

I have gotten some tea cup pics taken when I just got the sunshine.  Now it is cloudy again.  I will try to take some more pics of different things and list things other than tea cups today.

393 Views Yesterday!! Highest View Day of the Year??

Wow.  I reached 393 views from Etsy search yesterday!  Easily the highest search view day since april.  And probably before then.  If I even reached that high the first quarter of this year.

I know my highest Etsy search view of day of all-time is 441.  Maybe I will reach that this year???

I also have 1,560 total views!

BUT....I had 3 orders by 11am yesterday.  And with all those search views the rest of the day, it did not translate into sales.

And here nearly 12 hours later, with a very high search view morning, still no sales.

And only 48 views from Google.  But more than 100 "Other" views.  

347 Views Yesterday! Big Drop in Views Today

I got 347 views from Etsy search yesterday!  Just over 1,200 total views.

This morning there is a drop.  Only 89 views from Etsy search at 10am.

I am very glad to have finished with SO MANY views from Etsy search yesteray!  AGAIN. And SO EARLY!  It is only OCTOBER!

That does make me wonder?????

Maybe views will get worse at Christmas????  And then drop off back to where they were in the spring??? Maybe next summer will be as bad, view-wise, as this summer????

242 Views at 7pm!

Wow.  High search views today.

I have 242 views from Etsy search at 7:07pm.  But only 1 tea cup sale that was right after midnight.

I worked today and got a few orders shipped.  Fairly productive.  Have to ship everything tomorrow.

273 Views Yesterday

It was a drop in search views yesterday to 273 views from Etsy search. Only 38 Google Views! I wonder why they dropped??? And won't come back. 100 "Other" views.  Indirect Google views? Google image views?

It was a good day of sales though. Plus I worked. Another tea cup sale this morning.

So I will see what I can get shipped today after my grounds keeping job.  And try to ship everything tomorrow morning for sure.

The weather will change later today and tomorrow and this weekend. I am not prepared.

A Good Day of Sales

I sold 10 things today in 7 orders.  For a decent amount of revenue.

The past 7 days have been a big jump in revenue compared to that 7-8 day period the previous week. Wow.

It was looking like I wouldn't make any more sales at all.

Still not sure how the rest of the year will be.  I might not make it to Christmas.  Oh well, if I don't.

Maybe try to ship some orders early tomorrow.

105 Views at Noon

So I am glad to have reached 205 views from Etsy search, with 2 sales, here just past 12 noon at 12:05pm.

I have also gotten some pics taken.  Most of them turned out good and usable.

For one very pretty aynsley tea cup that I've had for a while, when I went to take pics I see  a small brown crack in it.  That kinda bugs me.  I don't know if the seller mentioned that when I bought. I don't think so.

Those ebay people are getting on my nerves.

You would think they are all competent and professional, but, no, they are not.  A lot of there don't know what they are dong.  They just take pics and list an item.  Most of the time it does end in my good fortune though. lol

Almost time to go off to work for the day.  Don't really want to.  Don't want to be treated to lunch, but I will go.

20 Views in the Midnight Hour! WHY the Higher Views?

It is looking like it will be ANOTHER day with 300+ views from Etsy search.

I wonder WHY?????

They say views should be trending downward because of increased competition and more listings, but my views from Etsy search are HIGHER, by a large margin, than last sept.  AND my Etsy search views are even a lot higher than even last CHRISTMAS!

I wonder WHY?????????

324 Views Yesterday

I am glad to have finished yesterday, a wed, with 324 views from Etsy search.  That is 4 consecutive days of 300+ views from Etsy search.  3 orders, too.

But only 1,039 total views.  With all the hundreds of extra search views people are still now browing my shop.  I have more than 1,200 listings, too.

I have to find the brooch to pack and ship.

203 Views Right after 5pm!

I am glad to have reached 203 views from Etsy search here at 5:10pm!  With 3 sales!

I have to find the art deco brooch I sold.  I did not even open it when I received it. And that was weeks ago. So I don't even know where it is.

Ship the 3rd sale now? Or in the morning.

124 Views at NOon! Another 300 View Day?

So I am very glad to reach 124 views from Etsy search here at 12 noon.  It did not look like it would be this high.  Things had slowed down from 5-8apm with only 66 views from Etsy search after 8am, but then picked up alot the next few hours.

2 sales earlier after midnight.

I am trying to get my one big order packed.  I have others to pack,too. I think I can get them all shipped today.

Back to work.

345 Views Yesterday!

Wow.  I am very surprised that my views have been so high so many days!!  I wonder what happened???

I finished yesterday with 345 views from Etsy search, and 3 orders.

I did have only 1,109 total views.  Not that many for so many search views.  That means visitors were NOT browsing my shop.  Hhhmmm.
