What Are the Top Selling Wood Products on Etsy?

The following is my answer to a question on Quora:  What are the top selling wood products on Etsy?

Among the top selling wood products on Etsy are:
  • personalized wood signs (personalized items outsell generic products on Etsy)
  • personalized wood blocks / home decor items like you would see on shelves or mantles.
  • unfinished and finished wood cuts in various shapes like unicorns, clover leafs, letters, etc
  • artistic looking lamps, birdhouses, ornaments (around xmas time)

A sidenote about Etsy top sellers:  the products that sell best are well made. They are also well photographed in lifestyle settings. Shoppers buy from great images so whatever you make, invest money in great images — it’s what makes the difference on Etsy and other online stores.

Though the top Etsy shops in the woodworking category sell lots of items, you can't assume it's just because of great listings. The owners are doing a great job at marketing and promoting which means driving shoppers to their listings.  Consider using Pinterest and Instagram to show pics of your work and how you make things and then link those images to your Etsy listings.

If you are new to Etsy and just setting up a shop with product listings for the first time, consider using a service like EtsyRank or Marmalead to research the keywords buyers search for related to the items you will make.

Regardless of words you use to describe your product, keyword tools like those just mentioned reveal shoppers (and your competitors) use other keywords which you must include in your shop listings, titles and tags.

How to Raise Your Craft Prices by Increasing Perception of Value

Perceived value is the worth a shopper places on an item when considering a purchase. Newcomers in business almost always under-price their craft products thinking they will attract more buyers.
