Just tried looking at your site and something is down on the site !!  I personally do not like etsy as they are a bit to high price wise !! For the best results use ebay !!  At least that is my thought !!

I've had an Etsy store for about2-3 years and just finally got to 100 sales-Its really rough to get attention on there,sometimes you luck out most of the times you don't. All my business comes from Ebay-the crooks they are! Here is one tip-do you have a Facebook-start posting your things on there to get some exposure

Actually the profit is not too high, that's why people won't attract for this.

Oh forgot 1 important thing-keep renewing your listings-seems if people don't see it when it's first listed-forget it! For me at least-when I renew or list something new is when I get traffic.
