        How it works

        1. Type or paste your title, and your tags one per line or separated by commas.
        2. Each is checked against Etsy’s hard limits, which stop a listing being saved, and against Etsy’s published advice for clearer titles.
        3. Problems are marked as errors (must fix), warnings (Etsy advises against) or tips, as you type.

        What you enter stays on your device

        This tool runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to our servers, so there is nothing for us to store, see or delete.

        To check, open your browser’s developer tools, switch to the Network tab and use the tool: you will not see what you type being sent anywhere.

        Questions

        How long can an Etsy title be?

        Up to 140 characters. Etsy suggests fewer than 15 words: say clearly what the item is and its key details, and leave out repetition, subjective words such as “perfect”, and price or shipping information.

        How many tags can I use?

        Up to 13, each up to 20 characters, using letters, numbers, spaces, apostrophes and hyphens. Short phrases such as “silver earrings” work well.

        Is what I enter saved or sent anywhere?

        No. The checks run in your browser and nothing you type is sent to our servers.
