Is it worth going after?
552,797 listings already target "macrame". That is a crowded phrase — a new shop is unlikely to reach page 1 on it directly, but the longer variants below are where the same buyers are reachable. 60% of the first page is bought rather than earned, so organic slots are scarcer than the listing count alone suggests.
The shops holding page 1 have a median of 2,200 reviews. Established sellers hold this phrase, which matters more than the raw listing count: review history feeds Etsy's ranking, and a new listing cannot borrow it.
When "macrame" sells
Monthly average over the last five years, indexed 0–100. May is the high point and October the low. Etsy takes a few weeks to index and rank a new listing, so publish four to six weeks before May rather than during it.

Questions
How competitive is "macrame" on Etsy?
552,797 listings currently compete for "macrame", which is high for Etsy. 60% of the first page is paid placement, so ranking organically means competing against sellers who are also buying the top slots.
When does "macrame" sell best?
Demand peaks in May, averaged over the last five years, and bottoms out in October. Etsy needs a few weeks to index and rank a listing, so publishing four to six weeks before May catches the climb rather than the peak itself.
What do "macrame" listings sell for?
The median price across 10 listings on page 1 is $88.36, with most between $53.61 and $159.72. That is what buyers searching this phrase are already used to seeing.
Where do these numbers come from?
Demand and seasonality are measured with Google Trends for the US. Listing counts, pricing and ad share are read from Etsy's own search results. Nothing here is an estimated monthly search volume — Etsy does not publish search volume, and any figure claiming to be one is a guess.
