I would not make a product of 10 pages and give it away. It takes me way too much work. I just made a resource that has 12 pages for 3-4 grades. It took about 10 hours total with covers, printing it out for editing mistakes, making a preview video, an answer key, etc., and then posting. I'm a perfectionist to a degree and try to make things look super cute, but professional. I love TPT selling and buying, but hard work should be rewarded. If you buy a worksheet online from Educational websites they will charge you $1 to $3 for 1 or 2 pages of someone's hard work. Thanks, Lori for taking on these hard questions. My best seller which I sell for $3 is only 4 pages.

Glad to hear your dad is doing well. Could you do a video on how much time it takes and what's involved in running a YouTube channel. Thanks

Thanks for the informative video! Would you consider doing a video on how you stay organized? Such as how you organize your files/pictures on your computer/Canva/Google.
Also, would you talk more about how to make preview videos for tpt?

My TPT covers are always blurry when I upload them. They look great on my computer. Is there something I can do to make them clearer ?

Thanks for your videos. Can you make one on making those new teach g type TPT videos. Not the product video as I already know how to do those. Seems nobody has posted any info on that.

I teach mostly physical science (9th grade) and am starting to make a teachers pay teachers store. My challenge is what format to put things in. Where is the balance between protecting your intellectual property versus making it user friendly for the buyer? For example a lot of elementary teachers on you tube recommend uploading PDF's so they can't be easily altered and resold. However I also know that every assignment I do is posted on my course webpage (password protected) and I know other high school teachers also are required to post assignments. A PDF is not editable by students which is again not user friendly. Also it seems like TPT only allows you to attach one file. So if I want to include additional info like answer keys and implementation guides then the teacher would have to snip out the student worksheet portion and make a new pdf. What are your recommendations?

Can you show us how to make idea pins?

[anntracy]

My typical pins rarely get more than 100 views, if that. I experimented with idea pins recently, and one has more than 4, 000 views! No sales, though!

Regarding keyword stuffing
This was a big issue several years ago on TPT. It was extensively discussed in the TPT forums and in many FB groups. You are dinged in the TPT algorithm if you keyword stuff the product titles and description. Don’t do it!
