  • I explain how to make text based t-shirt designs that sell on print on demand sites like Redbubble and Merch by Amazon. This tutorial contains tips and tricks for beginners and pros. If you found the information helpful, you should subscribe as I'll be releasing new content regularly.
    **In this video, I mention that tags on Redbubble are limited to 15 now rather than 50. Please note that you can actually use more than 15, but RB *suggest using 15 tags. It has been theorised that their algorithm places less value on people that choose to use more tags. Person A uses 15 tags and gets prioritised as "more relevant" than Person B who uses 50. That info hasn't been confirmed by RB as far as I'm aware, but they do officially recommend using less tags.***
    Being authentic and up front is important to me and I believe in transparency, so I want to let you know that you will find some affiliate links below. This means that if you click through them and end up purchasing something, I might receive a commission. This supports my channel without any additional cost to you and allow me to keep producing free content. It's much appreciated! If anything changes with this, or I decide to accept payment in exchange for promoting something, I will disclose that. I get contacted regularly by businesses offering me money to make content for them, but I only ever recommend resources that I actually use and think will be helpful.

    Thanks so much, Mr Owl. I started doing some text-based designs (of my own) but perhaps they're not appealing enough, perhaps it's my sense of humour or way of thinking (being autistic) maybe I'm not connecting properly but I feel encouraged to persevere thanks to your advice! Also, I had no idea that tags were now limited to 15 as I've seen so many mixed messages on this, including from Merch Titans who's free tag tool is brilliant but there's not an entirely clear message as to how many should/could be used. I went with some advice to go with as many as possible as that was what so many big sellers were doing on Redbubble but maybe that's no longer the case and now I'm stressing at the thought of having to go through and change every single listing accordingly! If only this was clear from the start from Redbubble! Anyway, thanks again! New subscriber here, much appreciated.

    • @PassiveOwl
      @PassiveOwl  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      You're welcome Rob. Thanks for commenting about the tag situation. I was sure that I'd been limited to 15 recently, but it's actually that RB **suggest** using 15 tags to get featured. This mental limit became fixed as far as I was concerned. It is bizarre that they allow 50 despite recommending 15, but it has been theorised that their algorithm places less value on people that choose to use more tags. Person A uses 15 tags and gets prioritised as "more relevant" than Person B who uses 50. That info hasn't been confirmed by Redbubble as far as I'm aware but they do officially recommend using less tags. As for your sense of humour and being autistic - I think that's actually quite a good niche to look into. Autism, neurodiversity, etc. Might as well target what you know and there's definitely a big market for it.

    • @artistrobfuller
      @artistrobfuller 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@PassiveOwl Well I've mainly played it safe and gone for about 15-30 of the most relevant tags imo. So I'll have to see how it goes a bit longer! I appreciate the feedback regardless and you that may be a good shout re. neurodiversity themes - it's been something I've pondered but never implemented - Maybe I should just go for it! All the best - Your channel's a Hoot!
