As the holiday rush subsides, now is the perfect time to revisit your Etsy shop and optimize your listings for a fresh start in 2025. With a new year comes new customers—and to capture their attention, your listings must clearly and effectively showcase your products.
That’s where eRank’s Health Check tool comes in. This powerful, time-saving feature helps you identify listings that need optimization, so you can attract more buyers and boost your shop’s visibility. Whether it’s missing tags, incomplete images, or common spelling mistakes, Health Check provides an at-a-glance overview of where to focus your efforts.
Why Use Health Check
Optimized listings are key to getting noticed in Etsy search results. By ensuring all tags and images are complete, addressing spelling issues, and replacing vague one-word tags with detailed phrases, you can help your listings rank higher and attract more buyers.
Here’s why Health Check is essential for every Etsy seller:
- Better Visibility: Fully optimized listings are more likely to appear in search results.
- Time-Saving Insights: Quickly identify and address areas of improvement for each listing.
- Enhanced Buyer Experience: Accurate and complete listings create a smoother shopping experience.
For example, replacing a broad one-word tag like “jewelry” with a more specific phrase such as “boho silver earrings” can increase your chances of connecting with the right buyers.
How to Use Health Check
Getting started with Health Check is easy! Here’s a quick guide:
- Access the Tool: Log into your eRank account and go to Listing Optimization > Health Check in the main menu.
- Review the Checklist: Each listing in the report features a checklist highlighting areas needing improvement. Green checkmarks indicate no issues, while flagged items show where updates are needed.
- Customize Your Report: Use the COLUMNS button to select which data to view, such as missing images, spelling issues, or one-word tags. Click column headers to sort your listings for easier navigation.
- Search for Specific Listings: Use the search bar to quickly locate a particular listing.
- Dive Deeper: Click the LISTING AUDIT button for an in-depth analysis of a flagged listing. This feature aligns with Etsy’s and Google’s guidelines, helping you fine-tune your SEO.
- Make Edits: Ready to update? Click the EDIT ON ETSY button to open Etsy’s editor and make changes directly.
Make the Most Out of Your Etsy Listings
The Health Check tool is your ally in making sure every listing is ready to shine in 2025. While minor issues like missing tags or images do not “make or break” a listing, addressing these areas can make a big difference in driving traffic and sales.
Make it your New Year’s resolution to give every listing the attention it deserves. With tools like Health Check and Listing Audit, eRank helps you work smarter, not harder, so you can focus on creating and selling. Here’s to achieving your Etsy sales goals and a thriving shop in 2025! 🎉
