Handmade in demand: Etsy has been trending upwards for quite some time. In 2020 it netted 300k weekly downloads; last year it was 400k.

However, this year’s significant jump shows that the demand for handmade and vintage items is rising.

But with Etsy’s recent growth, you may want to consider putting it on the map for 2023.
