Free Etsy Analytics & Shop Analyzer Tool
Transform your Etsy business with data-driven insights. Our free Etsy analytics tool helps you track performance metrics, analyze competitor shops, and make informed decisions to grow your sales.
What is Etsy Shop Analytics?
Etsy shop analytics refers to the data and metrics that measure your shop's performance on the Etsy marketplace. While Etsy provides basic built-in analytics (Stats), third-party analytics tools like InsightAgent offer deeper insights, competitive analysis, and actionable recommendations that Etsy's native tools cannot provide.
Key Differences: Etsy Stats vs. InsightAgent Analytics
| Feature | Etsy Built-in Stats | InsightAgent Analytics |
|---|---|---|
| Shop Coverage | Your shop only | ANY Etsy shop (competitor analysis) |
| Keyword Analysis | Limited | Full keyword extraction from listings |
| Tag Analysis | Not available | Most common tags, tag performance |
| Sales Estimates | Exact (your shop) | Estimated (any shop) |
| Competitive Benchmarking | Not available | Compare against similar shops |
| Trend Tracking | Basic | Advanced with historical data |
| Actionable Recommendations | None | AI-powered suggestions |
| Export Data | Limited | Full CSV export (Premium) |
Bottom Line: Etsy Stats shows what happened. InsightAgent Analytics shows what happened, why it happened, and what to do next.

Etsy Performance Metrics Explained
Understanding your analytics data is critical for growth. Here are the 10 most important Etsy metrics and what they mean for your business.
1. Total Views (Traffic)
What it is:
Number of times your listings or shop were viewed.
Why it matters:
Views indicate visibility. Low views mean SEO issues or poor marketing. High views with low sales suggest conversion problems.
Benchmark:
Average Etsy shop gets 500-2,000 views/month. Top sellers: 10,000+ views/month.
How to improve:
- Optimize titles with high-volume keywords
- Use all 13 tags on every listing
- Improve thumbnail images (click-through rate)
- Run Etsy Ads for initial visibility boost
2. Visits (Unique Visitors)
What it is:
Number of unique visitors to your shop (one person viewing multiple listings counts as 1 visit).
Why it matters:
Visits measure true audience size. Visit-to-order ratio shows conversion effectiveness.
Benchmark:
2-5% conversion rate (visits to orders) is average. Top shops: 5-10%.
How to improve:
- Drive external traffic (Pinterest, Instagram, TikTok)
- Create cohesive shop branding (encourage browsing)
- Add shop policies and About section (build trust)
- Use shop sections to organize products
3. Favorites (Wishlists)
What it is:
Number of times shoppers favorited your listings or shop.
Why it matters:
Favorites indicate purchase intent. High favorite-to-sale ratio means pricing or shipping issues.
Benchmark:
10-20% of visitors favorite items. Conversion from favorites: 5-15%.
How to improve:
- Send abandoned favorite emails (Etsy does this automatically)
- Run sales targeted at favoriters
- Reduce shipping costs (often a barrier)
- Add scarcity messaging ("Only 2 left")
4. Orders (Sales Volume)
What it is:
Total number of orders received.
Why it matters:
Direct revenue indicator. Track monthly trends to identify seasonality.
Benchmark:
New shops: 0-10 orders/month. Established shops: 20-100/month. Top sellers: 500+ orders/month.
How to improve:
- Increase traffic (SEO, ads, social media)
- Improve conversion rate (better photos, descriptions)
- Add more products (more listings = more sales opportunities)
- Offer bundles and discounts
5. Revenue (Total Sales)
What it is:
Total dollar value of all sales.
Why it matters:
Revenue minus costs equals profit. Track average order value (AOV).
Benchmark:
Average Etsy seller makes $500-2,000/month. Top 1%: $10,000+/month.
How to improve:
- Increase average order value (upsells, bundles)
- Raise prices (test incrementally)
- Add high-ticket items (premium products)
- Reduce discounts (only use strategically)
6. Conversion Rate
What it is:
Percentage of visitors who make a purchase (Orders ÷ Visits × 100).
Why it matters:
Low conversion = poor listing quality, pricing issues, or trust problems.
Benchmark:
1-3% is average. 3-5% is good. 5%+ is excellent.
How to improve:
- Professional product photography (lifestyle shots)
- Detailed descriptions (answer all questions)
- Competitive pricing (research competitors)
- Social proof (encourage reviews)
- Fast shipping (offer expedited options)
7. Average Order Value (AOV)
What it is:
Average dollar amount per order (Revenue ÷ Orders).
Why it matters:
Increasing AOV is easier than increasing traffic. Small AOV increases = big revenue gains.
Benchmark:
$25-50 is average. $50-100 is good. $100+ is excellent.
How to improve:
- Offer free shipping threshold ("Free shipping over $35")
- Create product bundles (3 items for $X)
- Add upsells at checkout (related items)
- Increase prices (test incrementally)
8. Traffic Sources
What it is:
Where your visitors come from (Etsy search, direct, social media, Google, etc.).
Why it matters:
Diversification reduces risk. Over-reliance on Etsy search is dangerous.
Benchmark:
Healthy mix: 50-60% Etsy search, 20-30% direct/social, 10-20% Google/other.
How to improve:
- Build social media presence (Pinterest, Instagram)
- Start email marketing (collect emails)
- Create blog content (drive Google traffic)
- Use influencer partnerships
9. Keyword Rankings
What it is:
Where your listings rank for target keywords in Etsy search.
Why it matters:
Top 3 positions get 60%+ of clicks. Page 2+ gets almost nothing.
Benchmark:
Rank in top 24 (first page) for at least 5-10 keywords per listing.
How to improve:
- Use InsightAgent keyword research tool (find low-competition keywords)
- Front-load keywords in titles (first 40 characters matter most)
- Use all 13 tags (long-tail variations)
- Optimize listing quality score (photos, descriptions, reviews)
10. Return Customer Rate
What it is:
Percentage of customers who purchase again.
Why it matters:
Repeat customers are 5x cheaper to acquire than new ones. Indicates product/service quality.
Benchmark:
10-20% return rate is average. 25%+ is excellent.
How to improve:
- Exceptional customer service (fast responses)
- Follow-up emails (thank you, cross-sell)
- Create product bundles (encourage repeat purchases)
- Offer loyalty discounts (10% off second purchase)
- Quality products (exceed expectations)
Competitive Shop Analysis Guide
One of InsightAgent's most powerful features is the ability to analyze competitor shops. Here's how to conduct competitive intelligence effectively.
Step 1: Identify Your Top Competitors
Method 1: Search Your Main Keywords
Go to Etsy and search for your primary keyword (e.g., "handmade leather wallet"). Note the top 10 shops that appear repeatedly. These are your direct search competitors.
Method 2: Use "Shops Like This"
Go to your shop page and scroll to bottom right: "Shops like this". Etsy shows similar shops based on products/keywords. Analyze these similar shops.
Method 3: Category Leaders
Browse your Etsy category/subcategory, sort by "Bestselling". Top 20 shops are category leaders - study them.
Step 2: Analyze Competitor Shop Metrics
Shop Performance Metrics
Total listings (product range), average price (pricing strategy), total reviews (social proof level), star rating (quality indicator), sales velocity (estimated orders/month), shop age (how long to build this success).
Keyword & SEO Strategy
Top keywords used across listings, keyword density, tag patterns, title formulas (structure and length), category placement.
Product Strategy
Product mix (bestselling categories), price range (low to high), product photography style, description length and format, variation offerings (colors, sizes).
Step 3: Identify Winning Patterns
Pricing Patterns
What's the "sweet spot" price in your category? Do top sellers use psychological pricing? Are bundles common? Do they offer free shipping?
SEO Patterns
Which keywords do ALL top competitors use? Which long-tail keywords are less competitive? How long are their titles? Do they use all 13 tags?
Visual Patterns
White background or lifestyle photos? How many photos per listing? Video included? Consistent brand aesthetic?
Step 4: Reverse-Engineer Their Success
Keyword Reverse Engineering
Use InsightAgent to extract all keywords from a competitor's listings. Export top 50 keywords, run keyword research on each, identify gaps (keywords they rank for that you don't), optimize your listings for high-opportunity keywords.
Product Gap Analysis
What are they selling that you aren't? Review their bestsellers, identify product categories you don't offer, assess if these products fit your brand, test 1-2 new product types based on competitor data.
Step 5: Monitor Competitors Over Time
What to Track
New products launched (innovation trends), pricing changes (market shifts), review growth rate (sales velocity), new keywords targeted (SEO strategy changes), promotional tactics (sale frequency, discount levels).
How to Interpret Analytics & Take Action
Data without action is useless. Here's how to turn analytics into results.
Scenario 1: High Views, Low Sales
Data Signal:
5,000 views/month, 50 visits, 2 orders (0.04% conversion rate)
Diagnosis:
Poor listing quality or pricing issues. People see your listings in search but don't click or buy.
Root Causes:
- Unappealing thumbnail photos
- Poor title optimization (doesn't match search intent)
- Overpriced compared to competitors
- Weak social proof (low reviews)
Action Plan:
- Improve thumbnail photos (A/B test 3 variations)
- Rewrite titles to match high-intent keywords
- Research competitor pricing (adjust if overpriced)
- Run promotional campaign to get first 10 reviews
Expected Impact:
2-3x increase in conversion rate within 30 days.
Scenario 2: Low Views, High Conversion
Data Signal:
300 views/month, 25 visits, 5 orders (20% conversion rate!)
Diagnosis:
Great product-market fit, but terrible SEO. Your listings convert well when people find them, but nobody finds them.
Root Causes:
- Low-volume keywords targeted
- Poor keyword rankings (page 3+)
- Insufficient listings (only 10 products)
- No external traffic sources
Action Plan:
- Use InsightAgent keyword tool to find high-volume keywords (1,000+ searches/month)
- Optimize top 5 listings for new keywords
- Create 10 new listings (more listings = more traffic)
- Start Pinterest marketing (drive external traffic)
Expected Impact:
5-10x traffic increase within 90 days while maintaining high conversion.
Scenario 3: High Favorites, Low Orders
Data Signal:
2,000 views/month, 200 visits, 80 favorites, 8 orders (4% visit-to-order, but 40% visit-to-favorite)
Diagnosis:
People LOVE your products (high favorites) but don't buy. Pricing, shipping, or trust issue.
Root Causes:
- Price is slightly too high (causing hesitation)
- Shipping cost is high (sticker shock at checkout)
- Low review count (trust barrier)
- No urgency (people plan to buy later and forget)
Action Plan:
- Test 10-15% price reduction on top 3 favorited items
- Offer free shipping over $35 (bundle incentive)
- Send "We miss you" discount to favoriters via Etsy messages
- Add scarcity messaging ("Only 3 left" or "20% off today only")
Expected Impact:
Convert 15-20% of existing favoriters, increase future favorite-to-order rate to 10-15%.
Scenario 4: Traffic Drop (Month-over-Month)
Data Signal:
Month 1: 3,000 views, Month 2: 1,200 views (-60%)
Diagnosis:
SEO penalty, seasonal decline, or competitor disruption.
Root Causes:
- Keyword rankings dropped (Etsy algorithm update)
- Seasonal products (Christmas items in January)
- New competitors outranking you
- Etsy algorithm penalty (policy violation)
Action Plan:
- Check Search Analytics: Which keywords dropped?
- Review competitors: Did new shops appear in top results?
- Review policy compliance: Any Etsy warnings/violations?
- Refresh listings: Update photos, titles, descriptions (triggers algorithm re-crawl)
- Diversify traffic: Start email marketing, social media (reduce Etsy dependency)
Expected Impact:
Recovery within 30-60 days if SEO-related. Seasonal issues require product diversification.
Scenario 5: One Listing = 80% of Sales
Data Signal:
30 total listings, 1 listing generates 80% of revenue, other 29 listings combined = 20% of revenue
Diagnosis:
Concentration risk. Listing-level success, but shop-level vulnerability.
Root Causes:
- One product perfectly matches market demand
- Other products are poorly optimized or low demand
- All traffic funnels to one bestseller
Action Plan:
- Create 5 variations of bestseller (different colors, sizes, bundles)
- Study bestseller's keywords → apply to other listings
- Cross-promote related products in bestseller description
- Create "Frequently bought together" bundles
- Diversify product line (reduce dependency on one product)
Expected Impact:
Spread revenue across 5-10 listings (reduces risk of algorithm changes affecting one listing).
