Spotted on Etsy displays search results stripped of Etsy’s AI personalization and paid ads. It shows you which of your listings eRank found among the first 100 search results for specific keywords while performing random Etsy searches.

This feature also shows you the keywords that shoppers used to find your listings in Etsy search, how popular those keywords are, and how your items' ranks for all keywords have changed over the past 14 days.

Please note that, in order for eRank to show you which of your keywords brought real shoppers to your listings, you will need to connect a Google Analytics account to your Etsy shop.

Add your own terms to monitor using the field at the top of the page.
