What is Placeit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/placeit-homepage1.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nWe won’t bore you with a huge explanation of what Placeit is in this article as there’s a good chance that you’ve already had experience with the tool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In short, Placeit is a browser-based design tool that anyone, regardless of their design skills and experience, can use to create a range of design assets including mockups, logos, social media content, videos, and much more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are some free templates or you can purchase individual premium designs, alternatively you can purchase a monthly or annual subscription to Placeit that gives you unlimited downloads. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The articles below give you a more in-depth introduction and walkthrough of everything Placeit has to offer:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why use Placeit to create mockups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Here are some of the main reasons you should be using Placeit mockups:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nImages evoke a response<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
It’s important to use good visuals to promote your product designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
People respond emotively to quality imagery, and having great images can go a long way to getting a sale or helping your products be remembered longer (so they might come back to buy later on).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Quality and consistent imagery can also help you develop a certain look and essence a memorable brand that people begin to trust. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Placeit mockups can go some way to helping you achieve this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can see a mockup image from an Etsy store below which is okay but the text design doesn’t sit quite right on the t-shirt, so we created a couple of mockups on Placeit that you can see below that we think could do a better job of promoting the product:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/example-of-a-poor-to-average-mockup-1.jpg\")

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nSave time, money, and resources<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
You could hire models to wear your designs, or you could learn a complicated tool like Photoshop to make your own mockups, or simply use a browser-based tool like Placeit that has done all the hard work for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They’ve taken photos of thousands of products, worked with models of all backgrounds to wear\/hold\/use them, taken photos in different environments and settings, and created a tool that allows you to put your design on any of those images in seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So, it’s a no brainer! You save time, money, and can focus on promoting your products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nHuge mockup library<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Placeit has by far the most mockup templates on offer out of all the online mockup generators<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThere are some great alternatives such as Smart Mockups but at the moment you won’t find a bigger mockup library anywhere else on the web. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nGo beyond the standard mockups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Some print on demand platforms like Printful and Printify have their own inbuilt mockup generators. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The images they provide can be useful but often their mockup images aren’t the best. Placeit can provide you with additional mockups that are more engaging to help you promote your print on demand products and designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Below you can see an example of a standard Printify mockup for a Bella+Canvas 3005 t-shirt versus a mockup of the same product from Placeit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We think the Placeit ones gives potential buyers a better idea of how the t-shirt will look and fit:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to make mockups on Placeit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Creating mockups on Placeit is incredibly simple. Here are the steps to take:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nStep 1: Go to your chosen category<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Navigate to the mockup area on Placeit (this link<\/a> takes you there) and use the filters on the left side to select the relevant mockup category. <\/p>\n\n\n\nFor example, we’re going to choose ‘Tote bags’:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/filtering-mockups-on-placeit.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nYou can also simply input a search term into the search bar to find relevant mockups, or use the dropdown menu to find the relevant mockup category (although not all the mockup categories are available from the menu area):<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/searching-for-tote-bag-mockups-1.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/using-the-drop-down-menu-1.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nThe search bar option is particularly useful if you have a specific product in mind e.g. ‘Bella+Canvas 3001’ t-shirt:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/searching-for-bellacanvas-t-shirt-mockups.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nStep 2: Choose your mockup template<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
To narrow down your search even further to find the perfect mockup you can use more filters. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For example, you can sort the mockups by ‘Best selling’ to see the most popular templates in your chosen category:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/sorting-by-best-selling.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nOr, if you have a specific model type in mind you can filter the results to show only relevant models. You can filter by gender, age, and ethnicity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/filtering-the-results-further.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nOnce you’ve found your ideal template simply click on it and you will be taken to page where you can customize it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nStep 3: Customize your mockup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The customization options might be slightly different depending on the mockup template you choose but typically you’ll be able to change the product color at the very least. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some templates allow you to add a background image or change the background color. In the template we chose you could change the product color, background color, or add\/upload a background image:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/altering-the-mockup-colors-and-background.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nIf you’re creating a mockup for an existing product in your print on demand store, you can grab the color hex code from your print on demand platform and put that into Placeit so it will match up perfectly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/inputting-a-color-hex-code.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nNow you can add the design that you want to see on the product by clicking the ‘Insert Image’ button (the button sometimes says ‘Drop File Here!’ too). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Placeit gives you the option to upload a design from your device, choose a recently uploaded design, or use a design that you created and downloaded previously on Placeit (Import from Downloads):<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/adding-a-design-to-the-mockup.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nResize and position the design so it looks how you want it to, and then press the ‘Crop’ button to confirm the design placement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/resizing-and-repositioning-the-design.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nYou can add additional design elements such as text fields and extra graphics by clicking the ‘+ Add’ button on the bottom left of the editor area:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/adding-additional-elements.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nAny new text or graphic elements will appear on the left side of the editor so you can customize them from there:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/customizing-the-additional-text-element.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nOnce you’re happy with your mockup it’s time to download it. All you need to do is click the ‘Download’ button, and Placeit will produce a PNG file of the image for you. Easy as that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/downloading-the-final-mockup.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nPerfect mockups for print on demand<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Whatever print on demand products you’re selling, there’s a very good chance Placeit will have a range of mockups that match your product that you can use to help promote it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are just a few examples of mockups that are perfect for some of the products found on Printful and Printify:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to use Placeit mockups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The best thing to do with mockups from Placeit (or any other mockup source) is to check out the competition on the platform where you’re selling your product (e.g. Etsy) and see what kinds of mockups are being used by popular competing products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then find similar mockups from Placeit and test these out to see what works best for you. You can keep testing and over time you’ll have a solid set of mockups that you know work well with your product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Placeit has thousands of templates so you can do plenty of testing and optimizing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are some types of mockups from Placeit to test out for you product listings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nRealistic imagery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/embroidered-hat-mockup-placeit.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nPlaceit allows you to showcase your products in a realistic way so potential buyers can easily image themselves wearing or using the product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whether you’re using the images in product listings, social media content or ads, having realistic portrayals of your products is going to be useful, and is certainly worth testing out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mockup above (from Placeit) of an embroidered hat is a great example!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nLifestyle and environmental mockups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/designhub.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/sports-mockup-from-placiet.jpg\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nYou can also test out different lifestyle and environmental mockup images to see what works best for your products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These are particularly useful if you’re targeting very specific audiences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nYou can even create video mockups on Placeit (in seconds), these are perfect for your product listings (tests have shown that videos can help increase conversion rates on Etsy).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They can also be used for social media promotion!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Placeit gives you the option to upload a design from your device, choose a recently uploaded design, or use a design that you created and downloaded previously on Placeit (Import from Downloads):<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nResize and position the design so it looks how you want it to, and then press the ‘Crop’ button to confirm the design placement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nYou can add additional design elements such as text fields and extra graphics by clicking the ‘+ Add’ button on the bottom left of the editor area:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nAny new text or graphic elements will appear on the left side of the editor so you can customize them from there:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\nOnce you’re happy with your mockup it’s time to download it. All you need to do is click the ‘Download’ button, and Placeit will produce a PNG file of the image for you. Easy as that!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\nHow to use Placeit mockups<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The best thing to do with mockups from Placeit (or any other mockup source) is to check out the competition on the platform where you’re selling your product (e.g. Etsy) and see what kinds of mockups are being used by popular competing products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then find similar mockups from Placeit and test these out to see what works best for you. You can keep testing and over time you’ll have a solid set of mockups that you know work well with your product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Placeit has thousands of templates so you can do plenty of testing and optimizing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here are some types of mockups from Placeit to test out for you product listings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nRealistic imagery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nPlaceit allows you to showcase your products in a realistic way so potential buyers can easily image themselves wearing or using the product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whether you’re using the images in product listings, social media content or ads, having realistic portrayals of your products is going to be useful, and is certainly worth testing out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mockup above (from Placeit) of an embroidered hat is a great example!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\nLifestyle and environmental mockups<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nYou can also test out different lifestyle and environmental mockup images to see what works best for your products. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
