Summary

NEW UPDATED Etsy Ultimate Growth Challenge! Grow faster than 99% of Etsy shops 🚀 Steal my $550K shortcut & skip the struggle 👇 👉 https://www.skool.com/etsygamesvip/about Etsy is rolling out a major review rating update on March 25, and this change could impact how your shop rating is calculated. If you sell on Etsy, understanding how this new recency-weighted review system works is critical for protecting your shop's reputation and ranking in Etsy search. I walk through exactly how Etsy reviews will be calculated going forward, including how older reviews now affect your overall rating and why recent reviews still matter the most. You'll also see real-world examples of the new formula, how review weights decrease over time, and why this update may benefit some shops while hurting others. You'll learn: • How Etsy's new lifetime review calculation works • Why reviews are now recency weighted instead of 12-month averages • How Etsy reduces review impact by 50% every year • A step-by-step example showing how review scores are calculated • Which shops will see the biggest rating changes after March 25 • How to protect and improve your Etsy shop rating moving forward If you want to grow your Etsy shop faster, get more traffic, and increase sales, I also share resources and tools that can help you build a stronger Etsy business. #etsy #etsyseller #etsytips #etsyshop #etsybusiness 👉Printful, My Favorite POD Software: https://www.printful.com/a/1357156:c9e605a691a554028f3a2945eeefe61d 🔥My Etsy Listing Image & Video Secret Weapon: Try Kittl here and use code LLYT for 25% off: https://kittl.pxf.io/POLJaM 💻Try Alura For Free Here: https://www.alura.io/?via=LLETSY 📚Etsy SEO Revealed FREE eBook- Learn and understand Etsy SEO to help you grow your business.
