How it works
Etsy gives every listing 13 tags of up to 20 characters, and its search matches them (with the title) against what shoppers type. The tags that work are multi-word phrases that read like searches: "leather journal gift" beats "journal", and 13 different angles beat 13 variations of one. Describe the item, add the material, style, occasion, or buyer if you like, and the generator writes 13 tags that each cover a different angle, trimmed to Etsy's limit at source so nothing is rejected when you paste them in. Tags over 20 characters are dropped rather than cut short.
Each tag is then tagged with Google's monthly search volume for the United States, from Google Keyword Planner via the Keywords Everywhere API, the same demand signal most SEO tools use. Etsy does not publish its own search counts, so no tool can show a true Etsy search volume; Google volume is the best public proxy for how often a phrase is searched, and the tags sort with the highest volume first. Use the strongest two or three in the first 40 characters of the title as well, because Etsy weights the title and tags together. Copy all joins the tags with commas, ready for the listing form.
Free, no signup. Each generation draws a small amount from your shared daily AI allowance, shown by the quota chip. Paid plans get a larger daily allowance for heavier sessions.
What you will see
- Tag chips
- One Etsy tag per chip, 20 characters or fewer, with its monthly Google search volume. Click to copy. "No data" means Google reports no volume for that exact phrase, which is common for very specific phrases that still match Etsy searches.
- Search volume
- Google's average monthly searches in the United States over the trailing 12 months, from Google Keyword Planner via the Keywords Everywhere API. Google rounds low-volume terms into coarse buckets.
- Note
- The angle the tag covers: item, material, style, occasion, recipient, use, synonym, or "title too" for a phrase that belongs in the title as well.
- Generate more
- Adds another 13 tags, different from those already shown, tagged the same way, so you can pick the best 13 from 26.
- Copy all
- Copies every tag separated by commas, ready to paste into the listing form.
Frequently asked questions
What are Etsy tags and how many can I use?
Tags are the search phrases you attach to a listing so Etsy can match it to what shoppers type. Each listing takes up to 13 tags of up to 20 characters each, letters, numbers, and spaces only. Etsy reads the tags together with the title, attributes, and categories, so a tag repeats what the title says only when the phrase is important enough to say twice. This generator writes 13 tags that each cover a different angle.
Is this an Etsy keyword tool with search volume?
Yes, with one caveat. Etsy does not publish how often a phrase is searched, so no tool can show a true Etsy search volume. What you see here is Google's monthly search volume for the same phrase, the best public measure of demand for a product. The figures come directly from Google Keyword Planner via the Keywords Everywhere API, the same source professional SEO tools use, as United States volumes averaged over the trailing 12 months.
Why are all the tags multi-word phrases?
Because Etsy matches tags to whole searches, and shoppers type phrases: "personalized leather journal", "boho wall hanging", "funny cat mug". A single-word tag like "journal" competes with millions of listings and matches nothing specific. Use all 20 characters on phrases, and let the 13 tags cover the item, material, style, colour, occasion, recipient, and use, so the listing matches many different searches.
Should tags repeat words from the title?
The most important phrase belongs in both: Etsy weights title and tags together, and a phrase that appears in both signals relevance. Beyond that, do not spend tags repeating the title; use them for the angles the title cannot hold. The notes mark the tags that belong in the title too. The Title Tag Generator is built for web pages, so write the Etsy title by hand with the strongest tag first.
Why does a tag say "no data"?
Google reports no measurable volume for that exact phrase, which happens with very specific wording. It can still be a good Etsy tag, because Etsy searches are often long and specific and a tag with no Google volume can be the exact phrase one shopper types. Prefer the higher-volume tags for the title, and keep the specific ones as tags.
Can I get tags for another country?
The volumes shown are United States figures. For another country's numbers, copy the tags with Copy all and paste them into the Search Volume Checker, which supports every country Google Keyword Planner covers.
Does this tool connect to my Etsy shop?
No. Nothing connects to Etsy. The generator works from the description you type, and the volume lookup goes to Google's data through the Keywords Everywhere API. You paste the tags into the listing form yourself. It does not read Etsy's search suggestions or scrape Etsy listings.
Is the Etsy tag generator free?
Yes, free with no signup. Each generation uses part of a shared daily AI allowance and a daily keyword-lookup allowance, both shown by the quota chip. Signing in on a paid Keywords Everywhere plan raises the daily allowances and looks volumes up with your own credits. Every plan has a cap, and higher tiers get a higher one.
