Pinterest keywords for Etsy sticker sellers

These are researched ideas to test in Pinterest search, not search-volume data. Type each one into Pinterest’s search bar and look at the suggestions it offers, or check it in Pinterest Trends, before building pins around it.

A sticker is bought for a place: a water bottle, a planner page, a phone case. Searches pair the theme with that place ("waterproof frog sticker for water bottle"), so say both in your pins.

Using them in pin titles and descriptions

  • Say where the sticker goes ("for water bottle", "for planner", "for phone case"), because buyers search with the surface in mind.
  • Include the finish (matte, glossy, holographic, clear), since it changes how the sticker looks on that surface.
  • Give the size in inches or centimetres in the description so nobody is surprised by a tiny sticker.
  • Use the subject plus a mood word ("cute frog", "retro mushroom") rather than an inside joke only fans would understand.

Pinterest allows titles up to 100 characters, and only the first 40 or so may show in feeds (Pinterest product specs), so put the main keyword first.

Example pin

A keyword mistake to avoid

Avoid fan art keywords that name characters, shows or brands: those listings get reported and removed, and that search traffic is not yours to use. Describe your original design instead, like "cute frog with mushroom hat".
