Finding item with search
Upvote this question 0 Downvote this question

I listed a Black Onyx Necklace with male as trait but my necklace does not show up in mens jewelry when I search for Black Onyx Necklace there.
What do I need to change in my listing?
Not sure if I could put an item link here.

I guess I have to add mens to my search keyword phrase.

Edit the item listing title to include the word men I would not use men’s because sometimes using too much punctuation can lessen search results, try something like jewelry for men then it should come up in more searches.

I was thinking that my item should come up under mens jewelry in the category of necklaces and pendants, but it does not when I search for Black Onyx Necklace.

Try wording it jewelry for men that way it has a better chance of coming up in results for jewelry items as well as items for men. I looked at your item & it has gotten some views recently so people appear to be viewing it, I know it may take a day to show up in searches.

sometimes items do not always show up in searches no matter what the wording is, it appears a bit random, I’ve done searches for my own items specifically under categories which I used the keywords like artisan, handmade, etc.

An easy way to see if items are coming up in searches is to organize search results by price, you may need to scroll through a few pages but it is an easy way to see if its coming up. otherwise you could be looking through hundreds or thousands of listings i.e. a needle in a haystack. Good luck!!

found your item in search. I did a simple search for black onyx necklace then to the left of the screen I revised it to include items $20-40 & this way your necklace comes up almost right away 1st or 2nd page. hope that helps & good luck to you!!
