What To Do: - Think of your tags as another way to say the same thing as in the title, for instance, if your title says " Personalized Dog Mom Mug For Her, then your tags should include things like dog lover, canine mom gift, etc... - Always use all 13 tags as each one left blank is a missed sale opportunity and use long tail keywords (3 or more words). The more specifically targeted to your product the better. - If a keyword phrase is over 20 characters, split it in to two tags. The algorithm can put them together. - There is always some debate on this, but I put my most targeted keyword phrase (the one that is in the front of my title) in my tags as well. What Not To Do: - Never use your shop name as a tag unless you have a shop that is a name brand that people are searching for. - Never add a tag unless you have validated that there are customers using this exact phrase each month (Use a good keyword tool like Everbee.com) - Never trust AI for the tags. If you want to use it as a starting point you can, but it doesn't get used unless you validate it with a keyword tool... even if other competitors are using it.

If you have listings that were getting views, favorites, or sales but have slowed way down — manually renewing them can give them a small freshness boost in the algorithm and get them back in front of buyers. Here's how to think about it: - Do renew listings that had traction — views, favorites, or sales — but have gone quiet lately. These already proved they had something buyers wanted. - Don't renew listings that were dead from the start. If it never got views or clicks, renewing it won't fix the real problem — which is usually the title, photos, or keywords. - Don't overdo it either. Renewing too frequently can actually work against you. Think of it as a reset, not a daily habit. Once every few weeks on a struggling listing is plenty. The goal is to get a proven product back in the rotation — not to trick the algorithm over and over with a listing that was never set up to convert. If something had momentum 60-90 days ago and has gone cold, it might just need a small push. Has anyone tried this?

As per our coaching call yesterday, I have attached a quick checklist to use for every listing you create. Any questions, just ask :)
