Everything that helps shoppers see you — then the checks behind it

先讲买家怎么看到你 —— 再讲背后的检查项

TagPeek is built so your listing can be found and seen under Etsy’s published rules — not so we can brag about pixel counts. Every check below maps to visibility, wasted slots, or hours you would otherwise spend measuring by hand. We never estimate sales or ranking. Share any anchor when you need one specific check.

In a few minutes you get a prioritised fix list: what blocks reach first, what is merely tidy-up. No other-site scraping. No photo upload. No invented traffic numbers.

① Photo diagnostics — so detail shoppers can actually reach

Real pixel read

Etsy embeds a ~794px preview in the page — that is not your master file. Treating it as truth wastes hours when shoppers never get zoom.

How we check: resolve toward full-size image URLs Etsy exposes and read width × height from the binary.

Comparison: Etsy shows a 794px preview while the uploaded file is 1588px on the short side

Hover-zoom detection

Etsy recommends photos of at least 2000px. In our tests, hover-to-zoom is unavailable when the shortest side is under 2000px — for every photo on that listing. That is wasted visibility for detail buyers, not a softer zoom level.

How we check: read shortest-side pixels, compare to the published ≤2000px recommendation, and flag zoom status as our observation.

Diagram: hover-zoom is fully on above 2000px shortest side and fully off below it

Crop safe zone

Search grids and category pages crop your art — buyers may never see edges you care about, so the subject they find looks incomplete.

How we check: overlay Etsy’s 1:1, 4:5, and 4:3 crop frames and highlight subject outside the safe zone.

Photo count & guidance

Etsy allows up to 20 photos — empty slots are missed detail for buyers.

How we check: count images on the live listing and note how many slots remain.

② Copy diagnostics — so you show up where shoppers look

Title length & readability

Titles have a 140-character ceiling — keyword stuffing hurts readability.

How we check: measure character count and flag repetition patterns Etsy discourages.

Title front-load check

Category grids show only the first ~40–50 characters — put buyer keywords up front so the listing can still be discovered.

How we check: preview the truncated title as it appears in grid layouts.

Description depth & keyword coverage

Descriptions should answer what buyers search for — not just repeat the title.

How we check: scan description length and overlap with title/tags for gaps.

③ Tag diagnostics — stop wasted slots that never help reach

13 tag slots usage

See how many of Etsy’s 13 tags you use, which slots are empty, and which duplicate the title — empty or near-duplicate slots are wasted exposure.

How we check: list every tag from the live listing and mark duplicates and blanks.

Competitor tag copy

Paste any public listing URL and read back the 13 tags that listing actually uses.

How we check: fetch tags through Etsy’s official Open API for that listing ID.

Tag generator

Get candidate tags based on your product — you still choose what to publish.

How we check: suggest tags from your title and description text (no marketplace volume guesses).

④ Attributes — empty filters are wasted reach

Attribute completeness

Etsy filters search with item details — empty attribute blocks mean missed filters.

How we check: compare required and recommended attributes for your category against what is filled in.

⑤ Output — fix what blocks visibility first

Layered fix list

🔴 Critical · 🟠 Hurts visibility · 🟢 Already good · 💊 Prescription

How we check: map each failed rule to a severity band so you fix red before orange.

Official sources

Every conclusion cites Etsy Help or seller handbook pages you can open yourself.

How we check: attach the rule library link behind each audit row.

Export CSV

Share the fix list with a VA or teammate without screenshots.

How we check: download the same prioritized rows you see in the popup.

⑥ Tracking

History trends

See how your listing score moves after each audit — not a sales forecast.

How we check: store audit snapshots locally and chart score over time.

Progress & badges

Track how many listings you improved and which milestones you unlocked.

How we check: count resolved fix items and completed audit streaks in local storage.

⑦ Free web tools

Free image size checker

No extension, no upload — pure local canvas on this site.

How we check: open the detector and drop a file; pixels never leave your device.

Etsy fee calculator

Estimate what you keep after Etsy fees and payment processing — for planning, not audits.

How we check: use the calculator with your price, shipping, and tax settings.

Quick answers

Is TagPeek a product research tool?

No. It audits listings against Etsy’s published rules before you publish and after you publish. It does not estimate demand or tell you what to sell.

Does TagPeek upload my listing photos?

No. Pixel checks run in your browser. The extension reads image URLs Etsy already serves when you click the icon on a listing page.

What does the free tier include?

Six listing audits per day in the extension, forever free, with no account. The website image checker and fee calculator are also free and local.

It is not a product-research tool or a photo editor — it is a compliance and quality audit before you publish and after you publish.
