I use Google Analytics to see how many hits my page gets, where people are coming from, and what search terms they're using to get to my shop.
For some odd reason people are arriving to my shop after searching for "Steampunk" - which is the latest teen fad that blends goth, emo, victorian, and vintage all together. I thought I'd share this with some of you who could use it (jewlers, accessories, knitters, etc.) because it's the highest search term that is used for my page. And I don't do anything remotely steampunk.
So check out what else is on ETSY under "steampunk". I'd be curious to see if you added it to your keywords or tags on items in your shop that applied to it if you would get an explosion of hits. :)
Thanks!!
