Use tags that still reach fansGetting started
The Banned Tag Check tells you if a Fansly tag is banned and how well it does compared with other tags.
A banned tag can limit who sees your post, and Fansly won't tell you. People call this a shadowban. It can cost you views and sales.
For each tag, the tool shows one of these statuses:
- Banned: Fansly stopped showing results for this tag
- Low or Bad: Few views and likes compared with other tags
- Average or Good: Moderate views and likes
- Excellent: Among the top 10% of tags
Check your tags before you post so a banned tag doesn't slip through.
Getting started
A check takes a few seconds:
Step by step:
- Type your tag. The # symbol is optional.
- Hit Enter or click Check. The result shows up right away.
- Review the status. See the rating and our advice.
What the results mean:
- BANNED Don't use it
- LOW Replace it if you can
- GOOD Safe to use
- EXCELLENT One of the strongest tags
Tip: Check all your tags before you post. One banned tag can hurt the whole post, even if the other tags are fine.

Troubleshooting
If a tag shows as banned or low, here's what to do:
Do this:
- Find a similar tag with the Tags Discovery Widget
- Try a more specific version of the banned tag
- Use broader tags that aren't banned
- Check again later, since a status can change
- Lean on tags rated Excellent
Avoid this:
- Using a banned tag and hoping it works
- Adding special characters to get around a ban
- Ignoring a low rating
- Using only one type of tag
- Posting a new tag without checking it first
Remember: Fansly changes which tags it limits. A tag banned today might work next month, and the other way around. Check your tags before every post.
Best practices
A routine that keeps your tags in good shape:
Before you post
- Check every tag before each post
