Etsy is mainly an e-commerce platform that focuses on original handmade and design-compliant products, and it is also an e-commerce platform where sellers get higher profits. Due to the high profit and unique products, it attracts many sellers to register, but because a lot of sellers didn’t study Etsy policies in depth, it leads to the store being blocked. So what are some common Etsy banning reasons?
1. IP address
When the IP address of the same account on etsy changes frequently, or multiple accounts repeatedly use the same IP address, the etsy platform will consider that the account has security risks and abnormal operations, and will suspend your account.
If you want to solve this problem, first of all, ensure that each store independent IP address, and before using this IP address, test the quality of the IP and spam percentage.
Besides, the IP address should be consistent with the store address, for example, the UK store should use the local fixed IP, and the Hong Kong store should use the Hong Kong IP.
It is recommended to use MuLogin Fingerprint Browser with proxy IP, which can simultaneously meet the multiple needs of “multiple stores + anti-association + independent IP”. Fingerprint Browser can open multiple browser environments at once, each with a different and fixed IP address, simulating multiple real network environments that are isolated from each other to prevent Etsy accounts from being blocked. 3-day free trial for new users!
2. Registration information
First of all, we should make sure that we cannot use duplicate materials for multiple accounts, and we cannot use the registration information of the blocked account again. In addition, the registration information should also correspond to the address of the store, such as the store in the UK, the identity information should correspond to the UK identity information.
3. Product-related issues
(1) The products should conform to the types and categories specified by the platform;
(2) No follow-sell products;
(3) Shelf products should maintain the uniqueness, not the same as other stores products, including merchants product images, product descriptions, titles, etc., need to write their own, not the same as other products, not to appear prohibited words sensitive words.
4. Infringement
Platforms like Amazon, Etsy and others take intellectual property rights seriously. Therefore, sellers must ensure that the items on the shelves, product images as well as product descriptions, product titles, trademarks, etc. do not infringe on the content of other brands or stores, and maintain uniqueness and originality.
5. Bank account of the store’s payment
Payments is one of the reasons that can easily lead to the blocking of a store. Multiple stores corresponding to the same payment collection information is not allowed, or the payment collection information of a blocked account can not be reapplied to a new store, or else it may lead to the blocking of the store.
6. Poor store management
If a seller generates problems such as untimely order processing, inability to solve buyers’ reasonable needs in time, long delivery time, and manipulation of reviews in the course of operation, the platform will easily ban the store once it detects the first signs.
This requires sellers to process order information and customer messages and needs in a timely manner; in addition, it is strictly prohibited to manipulate customers to make favorable comments; also, attention should be paid to the timing of the products on the shelves, noting the time difference between home and abroad.
Summarize
To follow the rules of the Etsy platform, focus on the originality of the product and content, standardize the operation, pay attention to the account IP anti-association, so as to ensure the long-term survival of the Etsy store.
