Only 2 of my 25 listings are showing up in search!!!!

I tried searching with my keywords and on this device and on another that I am not logged into and only 2 of my 25 listings are showing up!  HOW ARE THINGS SUPPOSE TO SELL!  Totally losing faith!

I've reached that age where my brain goes from "you probably shouldn't say that." To "what the heck, let's see what happens. "

What search terms are you using for your search?

 

I notice you have many items in an "other" category, which is much less likely to be found by most keyword searches.

 

If a site-wide search using a particular keyword returns many results, eBay will often direct that search automatically into one particular category. Sellers should take this into account when deciding which categories to list their items in. If possible, try searching the way a potential customer might, and see which category the search ends up in. That category -- or one of its sub-categories -- is where your items should be listed if you want your items to appear in that search.

Searches are unique to each individual buyer.    The same keywords that you place in the search bar will result in different results for each user.   

Not all items show up all of the time.

You have a very unique item and it is the only item with very few listings.      If you are thinking about expanding on Ebay,  are their other sea shell items that you can sell.   Maybe you have other nautical items as the Nantucket look is back in home dec.
