A note about the top Etsy searches
Over the past several weeks, we’ve put together a comprehensive list of the top Etsy searches in 2022 using some of the most popular keywords on Etsy.
And what started as some of the most popular Etsy search terms for holidays and celebrations has turned into a staggering list of Etsy keywords, sorted and organized by product category.
Looking through each list, you can see they all have one thing in common: the top Etsy searches are pretty vague. And what we mean by that is shoppers don’t usually use Etsy to search for exactly what they want to buy. Because they don’t usually know what they want.
Rather, Etsy shoppers start off with a vague keyword search (like the ones in this list), then dig through a few listings before finally getting a better idea what’s on the marketplace.
Once they know what’s out there, they start to search Etsy for products that are more specific. Which is exactly why it’s important to make sure you use long tail keywords. Not sure what long tail keywords are? We’ve included some examples below.
And with that, let’s take a look at some of the top Etsy searches in 2022:
Jump to the top Etsy searches in your category:
- Holidays
- Weddings & Celebrations
- Gift Giving
- Home Decor
- Outdoor & Gardening
- Pet Supplies
- Beauty Products
- Jewelry
- Electronics & Accessories
- Toys & Games
- Existing IP
- Clothing
- Accessories
- Bags & Purses
- Shoes
- Craft Supplies
- Paper & Party Supplies
- Digital Downloads
- Art
- Vintage Products
Remember, the top Etsy searches are full of competition. Plug in just about any of these keywords into Marmalead and you’ll see some pretty competitive numbers. Why? Because everyone on Etsy is searching for products like these. That’s why it’s important to use keywords that don’t come with too much competition.
And lucky for you, we have some pretty in-depth keyword stats available to you in Marmalead that show just that.
What’s helpful about Marmalead is we can show you how well a keyword will perform over the next 30-day. Each keyword search includes a snapshot of the number of searches, engagement, and the amount of competition you’ll be up against.
So, before you use one of the keywords from the list of top Etsy searches, make sure you use Marmalead to see how well these keywords will perform in your Etsy shop.
In most cases, using a long tail alternative instead of the exact most popular Etsy search tag will be more beneficial to you in the long run. More on that down below.
Using long tail alternatives for the top Etsy searches
In this list you’ll find keywords like ‘coffee mug.’ It made the list because a lot of Etsy shoppers search for coffee mugs. But there are also tons of Etsy sellers with coffee mugs in their store.
So what should you do? Avoid coffee mugs altogether? You don’t have to. That is, as long as you niche down and get specific with your keywords.
Try this.
Using this list, you’ll be able to get a more thorough understanding of random keywords on Etsy that bring a lot of traffic. At the bottom, you’ll find a list of descriptive keywords that offers a glimpse into the average Etsy shopper. These are keywords that are helpful for any seller, no matter what you sell.
So instead of selling default coffee mugs, you can focus on the popular descriptive search terms like:
- ‘Steampunk coffee mugs’
- ‘Dinosaur coffee mugs’
- ‘Vintage coffee mugs’
By narrowing down and being more specific with your keywords and product offering, you can quickly become the dominant (and go-to) Etsy shop for that niche.

This is awesome, thanks for putting this together. In the IP-infringement section, I was wondering whether “kawaii” and “k-pop” really belong there. My understanding is that these are general terms, though someone could use them with specific anime names or K-pop groups, which would flag IP issues. Hopefully I’m not missing something, because I use “kawaii” a lot.
Great point, Alexa! When you put it that way, these two keywords actually are just descriptive. I’ve switched them to the correct list. Thank you!
