How to use Etsy's 13 tags well
Tags are how Etsy matches your listing to searches, so all 13 slots are valuable real estate. The goal is to cover the different ways real buyers describe your item — not to repeat one keyword.
- Use all 13. Every empty tag is a missed match.
- Prefer multi-word phrases. "soy candle gift" beats "candle".
- Cover intent and occasion. "gift for her", "housewarming gift", "desk decor".
- Mix in materials and style. "amber glass jar", "minimalist candle".
- Keep each under 20 characters. Etsy trims longer tags.
Example
Product notes: “handmade soy candle, lavender, 8oz amber jar, gift for her”
soy candle · lavender candle · gift for her · handmade candle · amber jar candle · relaxing scent …
Pair these with a keyword-rich title from theEtsy title generator, or build a complete listing in thefull app.
Frequently asked questions
How many tags does Etsy allow?
Etsy gives you 13 tags per listing, and you should use all 13. Each tag can be up to 20 characters and works best as a multi-word phrase.
Should Etsy tags be single words or phrases?
Multi-word phrases. Shoppers search in phrases ("mountain coffee mug"), so phrase tags match real queries far better than single words.

Do I need to repeat words from my title in tags?
It helps to reinforce your main keywords, but avoid wasting tags on exact duplicates. Use the 13 to cover synonyms, occasions, materials, and buyer intent your title didn’t.
