First, let’s define search analytics. 

Search analytics will show you how visitors find your shop in search on Etsy. Here, you will see which search queries people use lead to your shop, and the number of sales coming from those searches.

Where Can You Find Search Analytics for Your Shop?

1. Go to Shop Manager
2. Go to Marketing
3. Click Search Analytics

Note that traffic from Etsy Ads is not included in the data in search analytics.

Main Drivers of Your Etsy Shop Sales

1. Visits to your shop – Number of times shoppers browsed your shop.
