Hi, I just joined Folky and am slowly adding my items. I make cards and knitted goods. I also have a shop on Etsy but feel that I am just hidden at the back of searches and not found by buyers,
welcome to folksy…there are various threads on the forums where you can show your work…
Ones for your cards and a knitting and crochet thread for your knitwear…
Welcome to Folksy, just had a look at your shop and your pictures look lovely - very pretty and inviting. I agree with the other comments about joining in the forums, there are lots of lovely supportive people on there
Hello & welcome. I’ve been on Folksy for years, but have only recently started to pay it more attention again. I also have a shop on E, which does significantly better than this one. I definitely have not got the hang of Folksy SEO, although I have tried! My best advice is to read all you can in the help sections & blog about Folksy-specific titling, tagging & marketing (etc) because I can tell you from experience that just doing things the same way as you would on E will not get you the best exposure.
I’ve found there is very little built-in, drive-by traffic here, so if you want Folksy to be your main source for online sales, then you need to be pro-active in directing your potential buyers here - business cards, blog/website, social media etc: make this their first port of call. Good luck!
