Trend Research

• Search a general keyword for the niche you're designing for.
• Look through the first few pages to see what listings are ranking and performing well.
• Ignore listings that say "add by Etsy seller" because they are not ranking organically.

Trademark Checking

• Check if the phrase you want to use is trademarked using tmsearch.uspto.gov.
• Use the basic word mark search and filter by "live".
• If there is a registration number, it means the trademark has been approved and is active.
• Steer clear of trademarked phrases and be cautious when creating new listings.
• If you question it at all, avoid it and use a different phrase.

Creating Designs and Mock-Ups

• Use Canva to create designs and mock-ups.
• Canva has a free version as well as a paid version.
• Select "create a design" and hit "custom size".
• Make the canvas size 5000 by 5000 for all designs.
