How To Use Tags On Redbubble (Step By Step)
About this video
The creator explains how he researches and writes tags on Redbubble, arguing that a good design cannot sell if customers cannot find it. He says a listing can have up to 50 tags, and that sellers should use as many relevant tags as possible, separated by commas. His main methods are to search a niche term such as ‘shark’ on Redbubble and scroll to the bottom of the results page for the platform’s related searches — terms he says other shoppers are actually typing in — and to open competitors’ listings and scroll down to see the keywords they use. Using a shark birthday design as his example, he notes Redbubble will combine separate single-word tags, so ‘shark’ and ‘birthday’ do not need to be entered as a long-tail phrase. He also urges uploading designs to all products, not just t-shirts, saying he has sold unexpected items such as a clock, which he says made about $12 profit, and a skirt.
Key takeaways
- Redbubble allows up to 50 tags per listing, and he advises filling them with tags relevant to the design to drive the right traffic.
- Find tag ideas in the related searches shown at the bottom of a Redbubble search results page for your niche term.
- Spy on competitors by scrolling to the bottom of their listings to see the keywords they are using.
- Enter tags as single words separated by commas — he says Redbubble’s algorithm combines them, so long-tail phrases are unnecessary.
- Enable your design on all Redbubble products, not only shirts; he says unexpected products like a clock and a skirt have sold for him.
