It doesn't matter how long you've been making jewelry -- it's still scary to put your work out there for the world to see! I'll never forget the last few days before I opened my shop on Etsy. I'd been making jewelry to sell in it for weeks; I'd enlisted all my friends on Facebook to help me pick a "cute Southern name" (thanks for Southern Baubelles, Dawn!); and I'd been collecting unique props to use in the pictures.

I know how it is. You are adding a new product listing and there is so much stuff to remember about SEO optimization, that one tends to forget the little things that can get you a few extra search engine views. Tags are important, but what about those tags that we forget to include. What are they? TYPOS. I know that no matter how good my spelling is, my fingers don't always comply and my eyes don't always see straight. There are certain words that I type wrong regularly no matter how hard I try not to.
So when listing your tags, think about how some of your tags/keywords could be misspelled. For example, I was looking at my stats yesterday, paying attention to what people searched on before arriving at my store. One person had typed toquoise instead of turquoise. When you start to really think about it, you can come up with a few extra keywords for each listing.
Remember, not everyone can spell, and not everyone can type perfectly. I hope this helps bring you a few more hits.
