# Tags

As your store grows with a wider range of products, keeping everything organized is essential for a better user experience. **Tags** function as subcategories that help users quickly find related packages by clicking on a tag to see all relevant products.

Tags are also necessary for creating **navlinks**, which display categories directly on your store's navigation bar. We'll cover how to set up navlinks in a different section of this guide, but it's important to mention their connection here — tags are required to create them.

By using tags and navlinks together, you can improve the overall navigation and user experience of your store, making it easier for customers to find exactly what they're looking for.

To first get started visit the [Tags page](https://dashboard.paynow.gg/tags) within your dashboard.

## **Custom Navlinks**

We'll explain this in more detail on our **Navlinks** page, but in short, **Navlinks** can use **Tags** to easily add extra buttons to your store's navigation bar. These buttons help improve navigation and give your customers quick access to specific product categories.

For a complete guide on setting up Navlinks, be sure to check out our [**Navlinks**](https://guides.paynow.gg/appearance/navlinks) page!
