How to use Product Categories and Tags
For example, you might have 10 product categories in your store for type of product, eg. bathroom, kitchen, dining, garage. You don’t want to have a huge list of categories though so you can add product tags to make it easy to filter and find products based on other features. For example, a dishwasher could be in the kitchen category and have tags for appliance, cleaning, dishwasher, dishes. Try to pick tag keywords that you think your customers would want to locate a product by.
