How to make text based t-shirt designs that sell
I explain how to make text based t-shirt designs that sell on print on demand sites like Redbubble and Merch by Amazon. This tutorial contains tips and tricks for beginners and pros. If you found the information helpful, you should subscribe as I'll be releasing new content regularly.
**In this video, I mention that tags on Redbubble are limited to 15 now rather than 50. Please note that you can actually use more than 15, but RB *suggest using 15 tags. It has been theorised that their algorithm places less value on people that choose to use more tags. Person A uses 15 tags and gets prioritised as "more relevant" than Person B who uses 50. That info hasn't been confirmed by RB as far as I'm aware, but they do officially recommend using less tags.***
Being authentic and up front is important to me and I believe in transparency, so I want to let you know that you will find some affiliate links below. This means that if you click through them and end up purchasing something, I might receive a commission. This supports my channel without any additional cost to you and allow me to keep producing free content. It's much appreciated! If anything changes with this, or I decide to accept payment in exchange for promoting something, I will disclose that. I get contacted regularly by businesses offering me money to make content for them, but I only ever recommend resources that I actually use and think will be helpful.

"Super Obscure Reference That Nobody Else Gets" might actually be a wining t-shirt design. The hard part would be figuring out what someone would search for to find it :)

Very decent video. Question for POD, do you design using CMYK color mode? And making sure you are within "gamut for printing" range? thanks
@PassiveOwl
3 жыл бұрын
Thanks! It varies as I had no idea what I was doing when I started out, so many of my designs aren't optimised in this way. It's never caused a problem (that I'm aware of) though. It's my understanding that CMYK is a good idea, but it's still confusing as different POD sites use different colour profiles, so it depends what site you're using.
