How to Add Tags to Notion for Efficient Organization

  • Create a separate “Global Tags” database to store all your tags centrally in one place[1]. This allows you to manage tags across multiple databases from one location.

Use tags for enhanced search and filtering

  • Adding tags generates searchable keywords, enabling faster and more targeted searches[8]. Tags also help filter and sort database entries into specific buckets[8].

Assign tags to categorize information

  • Use tags to categorize pages, projects, contacts, etc. Having a tag structure helps organize information and surfaces relevant items[1].

Tag people for better collaboration

  • You can tag team members on pages and in comments to request feedback or get their input[17]. This facilitates discussions in one place.

Customize tags for your needs

  • Tailor your tags according to your workspace needs – for example, assign unique category tags for blog posts or research topics[6].

Simplify data exports with tags

  • Filtering by tags allows exporting only relevant subsets of data easily[8]. This enhances efficiency.

In summary, leveraging tags in Notion provides enhanced organization, searchability, collaboration and customization. Start small and build up your tagging structure based on what works for your workflow.
