Here's the link to submit a help ticket to Etsy: https://help.etsy.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?segment=selling&ticket_form_id=360000108008#issue_sell_manage_listings

I'm diving into the ongoing Etsy search visibility glitch that's causing listings to disappear from search entirely. Sellers are seeing their traffic drop to zero overnight, their exact-match titles not showing up at all, and their shop analytics collapsing with no clear explanation from Etsy. I walk through what's happening, why this glitch is spreading, how sellers are testing their listings, and the urgent steps you need to take to escalate this to Etsy before it damages your shop long-term.

You'll also hear updates straight from Etsy forums, what moderators and engineers are saying, and the temporary fixes some sellers are experimenting with—like vacation mode—along with why you should be cautious. I also share the direct help-desk link so you can skip the confusing menu and submit a proper case with screenshots in minutes.

What I cover:

• What the "total search invisibility" glitch looks like

• Why exact-match searches aren't showing listings

• What Etsy moderators and engineers have acknowledged so far

• Why submitting a help ticket is absolutely critical

• How mass escalation speeds up Etsy's internal response

• Temporary fixes some sellers are trying (and why to be careful)

• How to track updates and report back if Etsy responds to your case

If you're being hit by this glitch, you're not alone. The faster we escalate it, the faster Etsy fixes it—and the sooner your traffic can recover.
