How the Etsy tag generator works

1. Describe your product or add a photo

Write a short description in English or Turkish, or upload a product photo. The photo is analyzed to understand what the item is; your own description always takes priority.

2. Tag ideas are drafted with keyword data

An AI model drafts English tag phrases. It is guided by matching phrases from Listimize's keyword index, which uses estimated demand — not exact search volumes from Etsy or Google.

3. Every tag is checked against Etsy's rules

Tags longer than Etsy's 20-character limit or with invalid characters are dropped, and duplicates are removed. You get up to 13 tags — fewer when there aren't enough relevant ones, because unrelated filler tags don't help.

How to choose relevant Etsy tags

What are Etsy tags?

Tags are words or short phrases you add to a listing to describe your item. Etsy matches them with what shoppers search for, along with your title, category and attributes. According to Etsy, tags are most helpful when there's no matching attribute, and for buyer-minded phrases such as "gift for her".

Why relevant tags matter

A tag only helps when it matches how a real buyer would search for your exact product. A popular phrase that doesn't describe your item may bring views, but rarely sales.

Use multi-word phrases

Tags can contain several words. Phrases like "leather dog collar" describe intent better than single words, and let you cover different ways people search.

Use a diverse range of tags

Etsy recommends accurate, relevant and diverse tags. Repeating the same word in many tags, repeating an attribute you've already set, or adding unrelated trending terms wastes slots. Vary your phrases: materials, style, recipient, occasion — only when they are true for your product.

Etsy tag rules: 13 tags and 20 characters

Up to 13 tags per listing

Etsy lets you add up to 13 tags per listing. Using all 13 with different, relevant phrases gives your listing more ways to be found.

Up to 20 characters per tag

Each tag can be up to 20 characters long, including spaces. Every tag this tool suggests stays within that limit.

Letters, numbers and spaces

Etsy's Help Center says tags can include letters, numbers and spaces. You can use an apostrophe (') or a hyphen (-) within words and phrases, but a tag can't start with either.

Example: 13 tags for a personalized leather dog collar

An illustrative example, not a ranking guarantee: 13 different, accurate phrases, each within 20 characters. Your own tags should describe your exact product, so draft them with the generator above and keep only the ones that fit.

  1. leather dog collar
  2. personalized collar
  3. custom dog collar
  4. engraved dog collar
  5. dog collar with name
  6. engraved name tag
  7. pet id collar
  8. puppy collar
  9. dog accessories
  10. gift for dog lover
  11. new puppy gift
  12. dog birthday gift
  13. dog mom gift

Where to add tags to an Etsy listing

In your listing editor

In Shop Manager, open Listings and edit the listing you want to update. Find the Tags field in the listing details, add each tag, then review and save your listing.

A starting point, not a guarantee

Generated tags are a strong first draft. Ranking also depends on your photos, title, price, reviews and how shoppers respond to your listing, so keep the tags that truly fit your product.
