Optimize Your Etsy
Product Images
View, edit, and remove EXIF data from your Etsy product photos. Add IPTC keywords and titles to boost discoverability on Etsy search and Google Images.
Your Etsy sales depend on optimized image metadata
Etsy's search algorithm surfaces listings based on titles, tags, and descriptions — but Google Images picks up your IPTC metadata directly. When a buyer searches "handmade leather wallet" on Google, images with matching IPTC keywords rank above those without. More Google traffic means more Etsy sales.

What metadata matters for Etsy product photos?
Etsy doesn't read IPTC directly, but Google Images does. Embedding IPTC keywords in your product photos means they appear in Google image searches — driving organic traffic directly to your Etsy listing.
IPTC fields to fill in for every Etsy product photo
These IPTC fields are indexed by Google Images. Filling them correctly drives free organic traffic to your Etsy shop.
Step-by-step: embed metadata in Etsy product photos with Exif Injector
Photograph your products
Shoot on a clean background with natural light. Use your smartphone or a DSLR. Etsy recommends at least 2000px on the shortest side. Take multiple angles — front, side, detail, and lifestyle shots.
Open Exif Injector
Go to Exif Injector and switch to Inject mode. Upload all product photos for a listing at once — batch processing lets you keyword an entire photoshoot in one session.
Add IPTC metadata
Write your Title, Description, and Keywords. Mirror your Etsy listing tags in the Keywords field. Use Exif Injector's AI to generate buyer-focused keywords based on each image's visual content.
Remove GPS if needed
If you photograph products at home, use Exif Injector's EXIF Remover to strip GPS coordinates before uploading. Protect your home address from being embedded in your product photos.
Download and upload to Etsy
Download the metadata-enriched images and upload them to your Etsy listing. Google Images will crawl the IPTC metadata and surface your products in image searches — free organic traffic to your shop.
