I am really getting frustrated!! Almost every time I attempt to make a tag, I get Etsy's little red message that I can't use over 20 characters.Most of the time I only need 2 to 5 more.I am trying to use three word tags to do better in the searches .Am I just driving myself nuts??

I completely agree. We need at least 25 characters, especially with the search strings people use to find us.

I definitely agree, the three generic words that describe the majority of my items don't fit by a few characters and I find that really frustrating.

I so agree! And we need to be able to use at least limited characters. For example, I can't put "7 1/2" as a tag for a shoe size since the "/" is not allowed.

Yes please. I keep trying to use the tag "cloth diaper advocacy shirt" and keep getting denied. I don't need a ton more characters just a few.

I usually do single words, but I think etsy operates by multiple words, which screws sellers.
