There are several ways Teespring sellers can optimize their listings to sell through the Boosted Network. Optimized listings can improve your products’ marketplace exposure and lead to more sales. An optimized listing can also help us prioritize your products for the boosted network because our team will be able to easily identify design themes as we search for more content to feature.
1. Title
Your listing title is the most important element you should focus on optimizing. Creating a unique, descriptive listing title is a great way to help shoppers find your products. An example of a good title is “I Like Beer and Fishing – Funny Hobby” because it incorporates keywords related to the design: beer, fishing, funny, hobby. These words are not only relevant to the design, but they are also words a buyer might search for.
- Keep in mind there’s no need to repeat keywords. This doesn’t improve your SEO when it comes to listings.
- Do not include words describing the product type, color, size, etc.—these elements are automatically incorporated into listings when they are added to the Boosted Network.
- Also, try to limit titles to five to eight words (40 character limit) and avoid adding words like “limited edition”, “over 1,000 sold” or “ending soon”. These words take up space, don’t improve SEO, offer no insight on what your design is actually about, and could even violate our false advertising policy.
- Make sure to translate your title (and description) if your design is translated into a specific language.
2. URLs
It’s good practice to customize listing URLs with relevant keywords. For example, if the design is “Love my mom” and your default product is a shirt, try adding the words “shirt” to the URL so you get “teespring.com/love-my-mom-shirt”. If you don’t want to add the product to the URL make sure to add at least one or two keywords.
3. Description
Your listing description can help convert shoppers into buyers and make your products more discoverable within Teespring’s Marketplace. When writing a description try to include content that is relevant to the design. Also, use phrasing that could help a shopper self-identify with your design theme.
An example of a good listing description could be something like this:
Are you a grandmother who loves knitting? Or maybe you know someone who is? These products are perfect for those who can’t be separated from their yarn and needles!
Clearly, this is a design for grandmothers who like knitting. We recommend keeping your description short and concise as well—don’t add loads of text or random keywords and hashtags as this will make your listing appear spammy.
NOTE: Avoid keyword or hashtag stuffing
We do not recommend adding random hashtags and stuffing keywords into your listing descriptions. This can confuse shoppers and make your listing appear spammy.
This is exactly what not to do…
Why is this a “bad” example?
- Nothing in the description is relevant to the design.
- It looks like the seller intended this content to be spaced out, but it’s closely stacked and hard to read.
Can I use #BoostedChristmas hashtag now, I mean in March month to get listed, So that I can get more sales in December?
Hey Joy – that promotion is over so there is no point in adding the hashtag.
I have upload a design. how can i sell design.Please let me know.
There is a button the says “Continue” at the bottome left of ther screen.
Hi,

I have been marketing items on Teespring now for a little over a month. I have a store front. I have very cute designs. I know my audience(animal lovers), and my store and all my campaigns are animal themed. I have only sold three things so far. I have boosted my ads on Facebook and done some Promo’s on Pinterest, and people LOVE my designs, and I had one lady send me a message about one of them and say, “I want it!” I responded and told her about my site a little more and gave her the link and told her I would look forward to doing business with her!! I still cannot get people in there to buy. I have my products on Instagram and Google+ and Twitter as well, plus I have a free listing on Bing and a free Google page. I just need to receive my verification codes and apply them. I put key words in all the campaigns( up to 10, not hashtags in the description). I am so disappointed. I had some people say that on average it can even take anywhere from a year to 2 years to get your stuff out there and build your business. I just can’t get people in there to buy! I will admit, my products have a lot of detail and are one of a kind with cuteness!! I know I’m giving myself a pat on the back. But, I need it! I am working to get even more products made for my store. I love to make the different designs! But, what can I do to build my business?! I would be happy to give you my email, if you would please take a look at my site.
Thank you and have a great day!
Dana
Hey Dana – don’t give up! People don’t find success overnight. It’s important that you take the time to learn the difference between creating a cute design and creating a design that people connect with (they see it and think “hey that’s me!”). This is where most sellers are able to unlock success and sales.
Thank you for the encouragement! I really appreciate it. If I just got one sale, I would be happy! It’s actually been about 2 months since I first opened my Teespring account, but I’ve just recently gotten up to 11 campaigns, and I still don’t have any sales. I also am wondering how to use a hashtag. I put #MothersDay2018 right after the body of my description. When I look it up as if I was a consumer, it shows #MothersDay2018 right after the body in my description. I don’t know if that’s right.
Here’s the link to one of my shirts so you can see if it’s right. https://teespring.com/butterflies-april-2018
Yes that’s right 🙂
I’m confused about has tags. the advice in the guidelines above the questions, I thought, was saying not to use them at all, and yet, immediately above the reply states, a hashtag was put in the right place. Which is it?
Hey, the advice states to be careful not to do hashtag stuffing. It can make your product description confusing and messy. If you want to add a hashtag into your description if it does not fit with simple key words to describe the design, like #mothersday, then you can add one at the bottom of your description box.
Hi Dana,
That is a beautiful butterfly shirt!! I am a newbie with no art experience but with a desire to learn. I know it is difficult, but persevere and I know you will find sales and success!
Good luck!
Bob
@Luiza
Thanks for the clarification! 🙂
Bonjour j’ai remarqué que dans le lien que tu vienne de partager que vous utiliser les papillons dans des t-shirts d’homme déjà sa c’est un problème la plupart des mecs ne s’intéresse pas au papillons, et puis commence à apprendre et lire des livres/cours de marketing, et de design aussi, et puis le Facebook ads chaque domaine d’entre ceux là est différent alors apprend peu à peu et ne met pas l’objectif de votre store qu’il te ramène en fin de journée un cashback, le but est de prendre au besoins au client c’est le plus important et être sérieuse dans ton travail, ce n’est pas par-ce-que t’aime les animaux cutes et tu les dessine ( design ) .. qu’ils doivent se vendre, j’espère que tu fait un planning de ta journée pour apprendre et pratiquer ta passion et dans des mois de travail dur et de patience t’aura ce que tu cherche 🙂 bon courage Diana j’espère que je t’ai aider un peu même moralement.
cordialement : un débutant.
Thank you so much for encouraging me! I really appreciate it! You don’t know how much that means to me. There are a lot of my designs that I want to buy! Haha!
How do you use a hashtag on Teespring? I know that sounds like a stupid question. I’ve been trying to figure this out all day, and there is nothing on this site that really explains where to type it in. Do I type it right below my description of the campaign?? If I do that, it just shows a hashtag, like I typed in #MothersDay2018 right in the description box of my item. It’s typed in right under the body of the description. But, I feel like I’m doing something wrong. I don’t see hashtags on anyone else’s campaigns. This might be a duplicate question, and I apologize, but I can’t find the original.
Hey Dana – that’s all you have to do. Just add the hashtag somewhere in your description. We’re able to search for all campaigns featuring this hashtag. 🙂
i like that your comment Kate ‘ People don’t find success overnight’
Hi I need some help to marketing my T shirts.
I’ve seen some of your designs and really love them (like https://teespring.com/new-paw-print-dog?tsmac=store&tsmic=danas-animal-design-boutique&pid=522&cid=101870). It’s awesome that you are donating to ASPCA! I’ve been trying to save up my money so I haven’t bought any of your items, but don’t give up! You have great design and I’m sure people will find your products. Definitely recommending these to my friends! 🙂
I recommend you search “wholesaleted” on youtube. Her name is Sarah Chrisp and she is very knowledgable about all this Ecommerce business. She won’t let you down. Just take everything she says seriously and you will be good! Plus research on how to make your facebook ads properly because you could be making your audiences to broad or to defined. Good Luck!
Is there a way to change a URL once a campaign is launched. I want to go in and add the word shirt or tshirt onto my URLs, but not certain how to do this. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Je vous remercie
Hey Dimitri, I would recommend checking out our creator guide for additional sales help. It sounds like you’re already off to a great start!
I’m new to Teespring and I get emails saying that my campaign is ‘listed’. I’m aware that this is somewhat irrelevant to the article but I would like to what ‘listing’ means in terms of Teespring. Thank you
Hello, “listed” means that your campaign is now active and that others can search for and find your designs on Teespring.
Hi

How do I subscribe to Boosted Network?
Hey Salman, you can learn all about the Boosted Network (including how to opt-in) here.
I can not sell permanently on my store please solve this problem
Hey Fairuza, can you clarify? Thanks!
Hi, Apart from social media like Facebook, Instagram, twitter….are there other platforms we can place our URLs?
Also, i was wondering if there was a way to get more access while designing because, sometimes i might have other ideas for how the design should look, but the boxed area given isn’t be sufficient.
Hey Raphael, are you running ads? A lot of our sellers use Google Adwords as well. For designs that are larger and exceed the boxed area, you may want to look into designing for all-over print items.
Hello my design are not in the search market place . I have a questions . I wanted to make bts T-shirt but there is copyright problem, why there is a lot of bts T-shirt on teespring market place while I can’t make a design of it and how to do it?
My second question is how to make my listing on the search market place?
Hey Cardonna, we are currently working on improving our search feature. BTS is copyrighted and you will not be able to create listings featuring the band or it’s images. If you see listings on Teespring like this, feel free to report them so we can take them down. Thanks!
Kate Shoaf Please increase title character limit 80/90 words.
hi teespring
i just want to let you know that your website is crushs a lot if i tryed to login i press the login button but nothing is happen and when i refresh the page and it seems that i am in( i guess thats a problem).
and if i tryed to design a product and tryed to choose all products when i press publish listings when i wait because its depends on how much products i choose the page crushes, the worst thing sometimesmy disgn not showd upwhen i upload it(not in the disgn area but showed in preview area).
so i guess you need to fix this,the reason i add all products is because i dont want to add products one by one to the listing using the same design.
thank you

Hi,
Inone of the products I made come up in a search result
If i search the exact name of my design, store or url it doesn’t show up anything (that means I would not need to increase a ranking?) or other random products.
Did I do something wrong? Do I need to do something to get into the explorer page? Please advice!
Hey Philipp, please email [email protected] for help with this
Hello, could you help me. I have a listing – https://teespring.com/fr/pray-for-australia-koala?pid=2&cid=581 – and when I search for “Pray For Australia”, or some keyword from my description, it doesn’t come up in the search results, at all.
Hey, please send an email to [email protected] for help with this!
I’m wondering about the URL to my store.
I’ve tried going to my store through a mobile device and it took a long time to load.
That could really defer people from buying, since they’d just click off for it taking too long. Is there a remedy to make it load up faster?
Hey, this might have something to do with your mobile network connection – if you still require assistance please email [email protected]
Hello!
I have been designing on teespring for more than a month now, have made 2 direct sells and have opted for the boosted network. Please how do i know if my listings are been placed on the boosted work. I have no notification about that.

Is it a bad idea to disclose that I am sharing my profits from sales with a certain charity organization (not involved in controversial issues that could be divisive) and provide links to said organization’s home page and donation page?
Hey there. We think that sharing profits with certified charities is a positive thing to do. We recommend donating to a verified charity through Teespring, which can increase conversion rates by 45%. Please see more about this here
I have designed so many products. All I can see through my store name. But when I am searching through teespring.com, none of them is showing in search list. If I search the exact same title what I have given to my products, then also it is not showing. It seems my products are only limited to my store link. If anyone will search in teespring.com, he will never find my products. Please tell me what is reason ? How it will show in teespring.com. Please reply ASAP. Thanks

Is the keword tag removed from edit
Hey Shas, yes we did remove keyword tags
Sorry to repeat the same messages as above.
I have a design called ‘Retro Surf design’ very specific.
When I search Retro Surf with the Teespring site, 135 results are found, all from a single designer, but not mine!!
The reply has been regarding an algorithm, which I understand, but surely, even with no sales, no trust score, the 136th item should be my design??
That is I understand that mine should perhaps be at the bottom of the list, but at least on the list!
If it doesn’t appear at all, then it will not sell – surely the net result. Unless, someone uses the URL for the item.
Thanks for any assistance

Hi, I need help. I can’t find my products in Teespring “SEARCH” bar. Why is that?
Hey, marketplace search results are ranked based on an algorithm combining buyer search terms, listing keywords, and sales history. However, most creators drive traffic to their storefront through sharing it with their community on social media, not through the marketplace.
