I can’t find our Paintings through the site search. Is that only included if we have a paid booth?

Dear Heather, You have a nice art in Your booth, but Your items can’t be found in searches, because You don’t write WHAT You sell! – You’ve added only titles of Your [URL removed]
“Well”, “River 2”, “Ellensburg Garden”, “Sharing a Sunset”, “Flesh & Rust 3”, “Autumn Forest Watercolor”, “Hardware”.
Only in one listing You mention “watercolor”.
Put Yourself in buyers position, if they are looking for a painting, they will write this word, and some more, to narrow the search to items/themes they are interested in.
E.g. rose watercolor, winter landscape oil painting, abstract colorful painting, autumn painting, horse modern art, night cityscape, New York acrylic painting, landscape wall art, chickadee painting, etc.
If You use all 80 characters available in a listing title, then You will increase Your items visibility.
At this moment, for example Your painting “River 2” can be found only if somebody would add in search box also the word ‘river’:
e.g. ‘landscape painting river’ (Your item is on the second page), but it will not appear in “landscape”, “painting” or any other searches.
![URL removed]
If I may suggest, try longer [URL removed] “River Watercolor Original Painting Landscape Trees Mountain Brook” (etc., it’s a big size for watercolor, so You can even add “Large Art 16 inches” or any other suitable word You can think of).
This way this listing will appear in many more searches.

The “Sharing a Sunset” picture can only be found in some “sunset…” search, but because on the thumbnail picture buyers see different theme, they probably would skip it.
![URL removed]
Add more descriptive title of the listing and this nice painting will have more chances to be found.
E.g. choose from these words up to 80 [URL removed]
“Figurative Art, Women Portrait, Red Dress, Car Original Oil Painting, Trucks, Landscape, Sunset, Large Painting, Modern Wall Art”…
Good luck!

Your listings will be seen within a Bonanza search regardless if you have a paid booth or not.
I found this listing here in a [URL removed]
[URL removed]
But you’re going to want to add more keywords to your titles if you really want people to be able to find your paintings or else they are going to get lost in a sea of listings on Bonanza. And you’ll want to take out the & symbol from the titles, use the word “and” as a replacement if you have to, maybe you do not need “and” at all. Google does not want symbols, punctuations in titles.
Use your imagination like you do when painting, pull keywords from the painting to describe it as if there was no picture of the product…both in your titles and descriptions.
Welcome to Bonanza. Best of luck.
