Sale Samurai is a cheap, fast keyword extension that surfaces long-tail ideas as you search Etsy. Shopling does that and the next step: it writes the title, all 13 tags, and the description, grades the listing, and fills the fix into Etsy. Plus the core tools are free.

Sale Samurai is lightweight and beginner-friendly. Its Chrome extension shows estimated volume, competition, and related long-tail keywords right in the Etsy search bar, and it is one of the cheaper options on an annual plan. For quick keyword discovery, it does the job.
Sale Samurai is research-only: it surfaces keywords but does not write your title, tags, or description, and it has no permanent free tier (a 3-day trial only). Shopling closes that loop. Our free keyword tool spins long-tail ideas sorted into tag-ready and title phrases, then the optimizer turns them into a finished, graded listing and the add-on drops it into Etsy. From idea to live listing, not just a list of words.
Sale Samurai is $9.99/mo ($8.33 annual) after a 3-day trial. Shopling's keyword tool, score, profit calculator, and add-on are free, with Pro at $9/mo for unlimited written listings. If you only ever want keyword ideas, Sale Samurai is cheap; if you want the listing written and placed, Shopling does more for free.
