Why & How to Tag your Project on IndieGoGo

 What Are Tags?

Tags are one of the ways people can find and discover your project on IndieGoGo.  Tags are like categories, and the most popular tags show up on in the Tag Cloud on the Projects Listing page.  When people click on a particular cloud, all the projects labeled with that tag are pulled up.

Since projects often fall into multiple categories, each project can have as many tags as needed.

For example, if your project is an environmental documentary film about the rainforest in Brazil, you might want give your project the following tags:

• environment
• documentary film
• Brazil
• rainforest

If your project is a comic book whose characters love to bowl and do the macarena, appropriate tags could include:

• comic book
• bowling
• macarena

The Tag Cloud that shows up on the Projects Listing page includes the most used tags across projects on IndieGoGo.  Also, the larger the tag, the more popular the tag.

How to Tag Your Project:

• Login and go to your project profile
• Go to your INFO window and enter edit mode (How to Edit)
• Add tags in the Tag field separated by commas
• Click "Attach Tag"
