Redbubble Artist Update Revealed🚨: New Tagging Limits to Reduce Tag Spam and Improve Relevance!
About this video
The creator explains Redbubble’s update to curb tag spam and improve search relevance and conversion. The new limit is 15 tags per artwork with a 50-character limit for each tag, applying to new designs and to edited tags on older designs. He says Redbubble reported that analytics showed more than 15 tags reduces the chance of making sales and hurts the customer experience, that Google only crawls the first 10 tags while Redbubble on-site search uses the tags to populate results, and that misleading tags such as ‘best-selling’, ’new design’ and ‘cheap’ will be penalized in search ranking. In a live example he tags a Christmas-in-July lemon design with accurate descriptive tags like ‘funny’, ‘party’, ‘Christmas lemon’ and ‘Christmas tree’, stressing tags should best describe the artwork without misleading buyers so relevant searches rank and convert. He notes he has sold on Redbubble for five to six years and says it provides him a consistent stream of income.
Key takeaways
- Redbubble now limits artwork to 15 tags, with a maximum of 50 characters per tag
- More than 15 tags reportedly reduces sales chances, so prioritize the most accurate, relevant tags first
- Google only crawls the first 10 tags, making tag order especially important
- Avoid misleading tags like ‘best-selling’, ’new design’ and ‘cheap’ — Redbubble will penalize them in search
- Write tags that accurately describe the artwork’s content so matching customer searches can rank and convert
