Why Your Etsy Listings Get Views but No Sales
Turn your Etsy views into steady sales with better keywords, pricing, photos, and conversion-focused listing tweaks that build trust and boost shop revenue.
I run an Etsy shop with multiple products, but I’m temporarily waiting on supplies for a few specific items.
Is there a way to pause or hide only those listings while keeping the rest of my shop active, or does Etsy only allow vacation mode for the entire shop?
Hi! Etsy’s Vacation Mode is an all-or-nothing switch for your entire shop, so you can’t put only certain Etsy listings “on vacation” while keeping the rest active. What you can do is pause just those specific items by making those listings inactive (deactivated), while leaving your other listings active and still selling.
Here are the best options for pausing only a few products:
If you tell me whether those items are “made to order” or ready-to-ship (and whether you’re using variations with separate quantities), I can suggest the cleanest setup so you don’t lose momentum in Etsy search while you’re waiting on supplies.
