Something rather simple occurs to me. Why not limit the number of tags, period? Other sites limit keywords to seven.

Question 2: I include occupations I think would or should be interested. Izzat wrong?


You shouldn't use tags that are not relevant to the design. If you create, for instance, a business card, do not tag it with every possible occupation it can be used for. Instead, use your description area to say something along the lines of "This card can be customized to suit your occupation." The same goes if you create a business card for a salon... That is a specific design, and can be tagged as such, but can't be tagged for all other occupations.

This may help you:

Oh... Tags are now limited to 40. Your first 10 tags are considered Power Tags.

Thanks again for the info. I have a question- when adding tags, is it bad practice to use variations on a word i.e. girl, girls, girly, young girl, girl looking, girl sitting.... and so on..?

Any idea how to include unique product inventory tags, such as "d01" and "d01a", that actually work?

Zazzle's system is ignoring these tags even if they are power tags. I want to use these tags to cross reference to designs stored on my computers and to provide customers with a way to find similar products.

Here's a thread I started explaining the matter:

http://forum.zazzle.com/create/tags_and_search_not_working_power_tags_ignored?m=709558#709558

I do not see anything in Zazzle's tag guideines that state why these would be filtered out or not work.



EDIT:

Interesting, Zazzle removed the entire thread I referenced. This is the second time Zazzle has removed such a thread, yet I am provided with no answers as they ignore any emails. Unfortunately my level of trust in them has now dropped to zero.


Sometimes when I've started a thread in one category, I later found it in another. Sometimes the threads get moved to where they think it is a better fit.

i have to admit, i HATE the time it takes me to write a description and to enter the various tags for my items/desings! it is not my favorite thing to do, as my brain is just wanting to design more products Smile

that said, i'm sure that i have tagged my items less than perfectly.

SO, i will be reading your posts for comments, info., and suggestion s to help me do better.

thanks to all who are out there to help us all succeed. i am still a novice at all ot the selling techniques that i need/want to master to do a better job selling my designs!

Has anyone noticed tags added to your product that you did not add yourself? I recently logged in and found this on a bunch (if not all) of my products. I did a search for one of the tags within the Zazzle market place and found a bunch of other products with the tags. Is this some sort of tag spam? Did Zazzle's staff add them? Did I get hacked?

Thanks,
Jon Roach
