Lisa Tries To SEO The Crap Outta Print on Demand T-Shirt Platform
Can you optimize your sub domain storefront on a custom t-shirt print on demand platform?I seem to think you can, but before I get into it, just who do I think I am giving advice on this?!
I’m Lisa, I have storefronts on the most popular print on demand T-Shirt design platforms:
- Customized Girl
' - TeeSpring
- Redbubble
- Zazzle
- Teechip
- Sunfrog
- Spreadshirt
- Designs by Humans
That’s ridiculous though, that’s spreading myself too thin, too fast, without knowing a strategy to follow. Why don’t I know what to follow? Because information is everywhere, information is influenced to sell something, and information without a case study being done is just wrong.
Hence, my case study using the extreme knowledge I learned via Wealthy Affiliate and Free Internet Marketing Project that helped put the pieces together for me that I gained from those countless webinars, YouTube videos, and practising.
Key Elements of POD SEO Success Set-Up
This happens when you search google for “50th birthday t shirts”, a keyword with low competition: 
What do all these shirts have in common?
I tried to search for commonalities between the seas results. Spreadshirt appears a lot at the top under a few paid ads, so I explored that looking for titles, designer names, product description, additional uploaded images, categories, and tags.
The search results when you click on spreadshirt show you all the designs by all the people targeting the 50th birthday shirt niche. Their titles didn’t seem to matter, their storefronts didn’t matter, or did their user names. The common items among these were categories and tags containing “50th birthday shirts”.
See the product description does not contain “50th birthday” but the tag does. Also seen in this example:
the tags seem to be extremely important. Right off the bat it’s safe to say, choose a keyword to target for your tags, always.
On customizedgirl, my more successful store, you are given the opportunity to plug in your google analytics account to you know, track traffic see patterns and learn what demographics are eye candy-ing my shirts. This is extremely powerful stuff I use to run my paid advertisements and for new product ideas.
You are also given the task of filling out important SEO information without truly understanding the power of filling it all out, you are given the following SEO optimizations:
- Title
- Description
- Category
- Tags
- Photo upload
- Sharing buttons
An example of designer and t-shirt name that could be important as well as description, tags, categories, and uploaded photos. IMPORTANT MEMO: Upload the image from your pc and keep uniform file names containing your target keyword.
And here: see that you can enter I think as many words as you in your description. I’ve never been capped. The only time this backfires is you can’t save these long descriptioned shirts to Pinterest because of their description word limit, but on the shirt page this is powerful if you do it right,
This brings me to lovely lists by Lisa as I sum up my lesson to you
