Paste your title, tags, and description. Instantly spot keyword stuffing, duplicate tags, and title-tag overlap that's wasting your 13 slots — before you publish.

What This Tool Checks
Etsy's algorithm normalizes and lowercases your text, so it sees a lot of "different" phrasing as identical. This tool applies the same logic to catch four specific, fixable problems before you publish:
1. Keyword stuffing
Repeating a word far more than natural language requires — the classic example is a title like "Necklace, Gold Necklace, Dainty Necklace, Name Necklace" that repeats "necklace" five times. Etsy only credits the word once per field, and the spammy pattern measurably lowers click-through rate, which the algorithm penalizes indirectly.
2. Duplicate tags
Three ways two tags can secretly be the same tag: exact repeats, singular/plural pairs ("cat mug" and "cat mugs" — Etsy normalizes plurals automatically), and word-reordered pairs ("mug cat" and "cat mug" match the same searches).
3. Title-tag overlap
Tags exist to cover search territory your title doesn't reach. If most of your tag words are just repeating your title, you're not actually expanding your keyword surface area — you're using 13 slots to say the same thing twice.
4. Keyword surface area
The total count of distinct, meaningful words across your title and tags combined. More distinct words means more different buyer searches your listing can match — this is the real payoff of avoiding the three problems above.
Generate a clean listing instead of fixing one
Craftific.com's Etsy Intelligence module generates a title and 13 distinct tags from your product details — built to avoid stuffing and overlap from the start, not patched after the fact.
Keyword stuffing is repeating the same word across your title, tags, and description far more than natural language requires — for example a title like 'Necklace, Gold Necklace, Dainty Necklace, Name Necklace' that repeats 'necklace' five times. Etsy's algorithm only credits each word once per field, so the repetition doesn't add ranking power, and the spammy tone measurably reduces click-through rate, which Etsy's behavior-driven ranking then penalizes indirectly.
Does repeating a tag word across multiple tags help my ranking?
No. If 'candle' appears in six different tags, Etsy does not rank you six times harder for 'candle' — it just burns five tag slots that could have matched five entirely different searches. Each of your 13 tags should cover different keyword territory, not reinforce the same one.
Are singular and plural tags (like 'cat mug' and 'cat mugs') really duplicates?
Yes. Etsy's search normalizes plurals automatically, so 'cat mug' and 'cat mugs' match the same buyer searches. Using both wastes one of your 13 tag slots on a phrase you already have covered — that slot could target a completely different search instead.
Should my tags repeat words from my title?
Mostly no. Your title and tags should be complementary, not duplicate — tags exist to cover search territory the title doesn't reach. A tag set that's mostly the same words as your title is a missed opportunity, since Etsy already indexes your title separately.
Does this tool check my listing against real Etsy search data?
No. This tool analyzes only the text you paste in — word frequency, tag duplication, and title-tag overlap — entirely in your browser. It doesn't query Etsy, doesn't check search volume, and sends nothing to a server. For live search volume and competition data, use a tool built for that, such as the Etsy Keyword Cluster Generator.
