Remember Tess? She was featured in the interview where we talked about how quickly she was successful when she applied lessons from The Simple Guide To SEO. Here’s the original article if you want to read it again: Ten With Tess – An Interview On SEO Success
Well, it’s 3 months later and I just got the following email from Tess this morning. I had to share.
Hi Conrad,
I just wanted to give you an update on my SEO status.
When we did the interview several months ago, I was super excited at the increase in hits on my Etsy store. Now, I have even more SEO success to shout about! Attached is a screen shot of page one on a Google search for “Hunger Games Bracelet.” The top two results are posts about my bracelet. The third and forth results are direct links to my Etsy shop.
In other words, I now occupy the top four spaces on page one of this particular Google search. Amazing! When I started my SEO work, my shop didn’t show up on Google at all…though I stopped looking after about page 5 of the results.
I’ve also taken your advice and started a joint Facebook page along with several other Etsy sellers of Hunger Games merchandise. We have a Twitter account too. We’ve been doing weekly giveaways and the number of followers increases every day as word spreads.
All of this has led to a measurable increase in sales for me. Wah-hoo!!!
I credit your free SEO booklet for giving me the kick in the pants I needed to just do it. Thanks a million times over!
