How to optimize your Teespring listings

Optimzing your Teespring listings is one of the most effective ways to improve the performance of Google Shopping ads as well as increase your sales in Teespring’s Boosted Network. It’s as simple as updating your listing’s title and description! We’ll explain exactly what to do (and not do) in the content below.

Please note Teespring listings have a limit of 40 characters for titles and 1500 characters for descriptions—so choose your words wisely! When optimizing your listings you’ll want to include keywords and information that will help shoppers discover your products (add words you think shoppers will use to search for your product/design). Make sure to add the most important information within the first 150 characters of your listing description.

Optimization Do’s and Don’ts

Let’s review some of the top tips you can apply to your current Teespring listings for Google Shopping and the Boosted Network.

Do:

• Do describe your design, the design theme, and/or your intended buyer (who is the design for).
• Do use correct grammar and punctuation.
• Do be specific and accurate.
• Do incorporate keywords you think a shopper would use while searching for your product.
• Do include the most important information in the first 150 characters of the text.

Don’t:

• Don’t add the product type in the title. Teespring will automatically add the product type to the your Google feed and in the Boosted Network. For example, if you add ‘Unisex T-shirt’ in the title you’ll be wasting valuable characters.
• Don’t use capitalized letters for emphasis—this looks spammy (i.e. don’t write BEST SHIRT EVER).
• Don’t include comparisons or details about other products or designs.
• Don’t include promotional text that isn’t related to the product (shipping info, delivery, price, payment options, etc.).
