Is it worth going after?
17,884 listings already target "macrame plant hanger". That is a thin field by Etsy standards, which is where a new shop can realistically rank. 55% 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 4,400 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 plant hanger" sells

Questions
How competitive is "macrame plant hanger" on Etsy?
17,884 listings currently compete for "macrame plant hanger", which is low for Etsy. 55% of the first page is paid placement, so ranking organically means competing against sellers who are also buying the top slots.
When does "macrame plant hanger" sell best?
Demand peaks in May, averaged over the last five years, and bottoms out in November. 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 plant hanger" listings sell for?
The median price across 11 listings on page 1 is $12.59, with most between $11.74 and $18.32. 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.
