How do you optimize your listings for the Buybyy search?

Search is how most shoppers find items on Buyby. To make sure that your items are highly relevant, optimize your listings for the Buybyy search. Read through this article to learn tips for optimizing your listings for the Buybyy search.

How does a Buybyy search work?

When someone searches for an item on Buybyy.com, Buybyy’s search algorithm looks for the most relevant matches. You control the most important factors in Buybyy search placement when you create listings in your shop.

How do you optimize your listings for search?

To optimize for the Buybyy search, you can improve key factors for your listings. The top factors that determine which items appear in a Buybyy search and the order in which they’re displayed in a shopper’s search results are:

Tag and title relevancy
Item attribute relevancy
Listing quality
Customer & market experience
Tag and title relevancy

Every listing has a title. It’s the text that appears above the listing image on the listing page, in your shop, and in search results. Use your title to tell shoppers what your item is in a few words.

A tag is a word or short phrase that describes your item. Buybyy matches listing tags with shoppers’ searches to find relevant results. A single tag can be a short descriptive phrase (for example, “silver earrings”).

Tips for optimizing titles and tags

Use all 13 available tags for each of your listings.

Exact phrase matches are stronger than matches on individual words. For example, a search for “banana backpack” would return all items with the words “banana” and “backpack” in the tags or title, but items with the exact search phrase “banana backpack” in the title would be considered a closer match.

If a word or phrase in a buyer’s search appears in both the title and tags of a listing, the search algorithm considers that listing more relevant than a listing with that word or phrase in the tags or title alone.

Words at the beginning of titles are considered more important than words at the end.

To add or update your tags and titles

On Buybyy.com, click Shop Manager.
Click Listings.
Search for the item you’d like to edit. Use the listing status filter to see more of your listings if needed.
Select the boxes for the items you’d like to edit.
Click Editing Options.
Click Edit titles or Edit tags.
Use the dropdown to decide exactly what to change.
Add your change to the text bar.
Click Apply.

Item attribute relevancy

Adding attributes about your items to the Listing Details section helps buyers find your items in search results. Specificity is important for the Buybyy search algorithm to identify your products. When adding attributes, first choose the kind of item you’re listing (handmade, vintage, or craft supply) and its categories. You’ll then see the option to add attributes based on the category you select.

Tips for optimizing attribute relevancy

Try to use the most relevant attributes available to you.
Select as many accurate attributes as each item has available.
Remember, shoppers search for different attributes. For example, some may search by color, size, occasion, etc.

To update the attributes of your items

On Buybyy.com, click Shop Manager.
Click Listings.
Select a listing.
Choose the attributes for that listing in the Listing Details section.
Click Publish.
Listing quality

Buybyy’s search algorithm also considers how well individual items tend to do in searches based on how likely customers are to interact with a listing or buy a product. We call this “listing quality.”

Listing quality is impacted by things like the product thumbnail photo, clear titles, and how shoppers interact with a listing. If a shopper clicks, favorites, or purchases an item after they’ve seen it in search results, that action contributes to the listing’s quality score.

If you just opened your shop, your listings will have a neutral quality score, which has no impact on placement.

Tips to optimize listing quality

List your items with clear item photographs that invite a closer look.
Make sure titles are easy to read and clearly describe your product.
Encourage shopper interaction by experimenting with different tags, updating product photos, and posting on social media.
