The highest-volume term is usually the most crowded. Pick the phrase that matches exactly what your buyer types when they are ready to purchase — “personalized birthstone necklace” carries far clearer intent than “jewelry”.
Etsy weights the beginning of the title more heavily. Lead with the exact long-tail phrase, then add the variations and occasions afterwards.
Each tag can hold up to 20 characters. Wasting a tag on one generic word throws away reach — use multi-word phrases from the category list instead.
Etsy rewards consistency between title, tags and attributes. A phrase that appears in both the title and a tag is a stronger relevance signal than one that appears only once.
These lists are a starting point. Boostolog scores the titles, tags and descriptions of the listings in your own Etsy shop and suggests improvements with AI; nothing is written to Etsy until you review and approve each suggestion.
