How To Design T Shirts For Redbubble - Redbubble Beginners - Redbubble Design Tips

About this video

Martinez explains how to design t-shirts for Redbubble, starting with research before any designing. He says he is not himself a designer but is good at research, recommends choosing a niche you personally know so you understand its funny sayings and demand, and suggests using Redbubble’s search bar, trending searches, popular products, best sellers and trending results for niches such as dogs, cats, puppies and funny teacher sayings. He says spotting a trending search with few designs can let you be first, and notes that good keywords and tags increase sales chances. He also says he outsources illustrations by building relationships, while he does the research, and warns to double-check trademarks. For software he mentions Canva, the Over app, Word Swag, Photoshop and Illustrator, then demonstrates in Canva: he discusses Redbubble’s recommended large upload size, uses a 5,000 by 5,000 example, checks that elements are free for commercial use, notes transparent-background downloads require Canva’s pro version, and makes a big, bold text design reading ’love you long time.’ He uploads it to Redbubble, sizing it large so customers can read it easily on phone or computer without pushing it off the edges.

Key takeaways

• Do research before designing: use Redbubble search, trending searches, popular products, best sellers and trending results to learn what people want.
• Pick a niche you know personally so you understand its sayings and demand, and look for trending searches where few designs exist yet.
• If you cannot draw, use funny sayings or outsource illustrations while you handle research; talented illustration can also be a differentiator.
• Check trademarks and confirm fonts and elements are free for commercial use; he notes transparent-background Canva downloads need the pro version.
• Make text designs big and bold to fill the shirt space without running off the edges, so the thumbnail is readable and more likely to convert.
