A tag cloud (more traditionally known as a weighted list in the field of visual design) is a visual depiction of content tags used on a website. Often, more frequently used tags are depicted in a larger font or otherwise emphasized, while the displayed order is generally alphabetical. Thus both finding a tag by alphabet and by popularity is possible. Selecting a single tag within a tag cloud will generally lead to a collection of items that are associated with that tag.

The analogy to tags is keywords. For auctions, keywords are used in searches for desired items (buy or sell). The most popular keywords
used in eBay auction listing searches are presented in an easy to read cloud format.
