Hello,
I am using the North theme and wondering if there is a way to hide product tags from showing on the product pages. I just would rather for them not to be there but yet I still would like to add tags for the SEO benefit.
Hi Multimastery,
You can remove the tags with some custom CSS. If you navigate to AppearanceCustom CSS, you’ll get our custom CSS editor. Please add the following CSS:
.single-product .tags-list { display: none; }You might also need to install the SiteOrigin CSS Editor.
Please note that if the tags aren’t visible, they won’t be factored into your SEO.

So you’re saying that search engines can’t see the tags in the source code?
Hi Multimastery,
If it’s not a meta tag (mdn reference – even then, Google will ignore Meta Keywords), and it’s not visible, no. Google won’t directly factor in anything invisible (“why factor it in if it’s not visible?”). It will make a note of how much text is invisible and if appears as though you’re trying to “game the system” it may penalize you.
