11 strict checksWhat the Etsy tag checker checks
Etsy gives sellers up to 13 tag slots, with up to 20 characters in each tag. Etsy’s own keyword guidance recommends using all available tags, favoring descriptive multi-word phrases, avoiding repeated tags, and adding variety so the listing can match different relevant queries.
- How many of the 13 slots are used
- 20-character limit violations
- Exact duplicate tags
- Single-word versus multi-word phrase use
- Over-repeated concepts across multiple tags
- Broad generic-only tags
- Unusual punctuation
- All-caps patterns
- Vocabulary diversity
What this checker does not know
It does not know monthly search volume, keyword competition, or whether a phrase will rank. Those require marketplace data. A tag can pass every structural check here and still target weak demand. EtsyDoc deliberately separates measurable structure from market research.
