Benefits

Use this feature to evaluate your keywords in batches and save time.

Compare Google and Etsy stats and view the number of monthly searches for each keyword plotted on both a 12-month line graph and 15-month bar chart. These visuals help you identify trends over time for each keyword so that you can choose the ones that work best for your items throughout the year.

How to Use

In the Main Menu, select Tools and then Compare Keywords.

Type up to 4 keywords into the 4 fields in the blue bar below and click the orange Compare button. Enter one keyword per field.

You can also explore other useful keyword reports by clicking any of the options above, under Keyword Reports.

Use the line graph to view the number of monthly searches for each keyword over the past 12 months. Viewing the data in this particular format makes it easy to determine if a keyword is seasonal or trending.

Uncheck any of the boxes next to the keywords above the graph to hide that data.

Use the table below the graph to view the following information:

Keywords: the keywords being analyzed

Average Searches (US)*: the average monthly searches for each keyword on Etsy by people living in the US, based on the past 12 months of Etsy data

Average Clicks (US)*: the average monthly clicks that listings in searches for each keyword get on Etsy, based on the past 12 months of Etsy data

Average CTR (US)*: the ratio of clicks to searches for each keyword on Etsy (shown as a percentage), based on the past 12 months of Etsy data

Etsy Competition (US)*:  how much competition you can expect with each keyword on Etsy search results pages

Search Trend: these graphs display each keyword’s changes in popularity over the past 15 months. From this data, you can get a sense of a keyword’s seasonality and whether it is becoming more or less popular

Google Searches: the estimated number of searches performed on Google each month for each keyword. Google search data is also useful for your website and helps you understand broader user-interest levels, keywords, and products

Google Competition: indicates the level of advertisers that are competing on Google for each keyword. The competition score ranges from 0 to 1, with 0 being no competition and 1 being high. High competition is a good indicator of purchase intent

Google CPC: CPC (cost-per-click) indicates how much advertisers are prepared to pay to appear at the top of search results for each keyword. If advertisers are prepared to pay a high CPC, that indicates the keyword has good purchase intent 

Long Tail Keywords: indicates whether or not each keyword is more specific than more commonly searched for keywords. Long tail keywords get less search traffic, but will usually have a higher conversion value
