I discovered Hand Made Artists about 1 year after they had opened their online shops. I thought "WOW" this is a great place to sell my stuff. The owners are artists themselves and they are great people to deal with. After having my account now for a year, I have finally decided it was time for me to get a little more serious about my shop. To be more involved with the blog, forum, twitter rings, blog rings, and now Pinterest. I still have not put enough of my time into making my site shine, but the greatest part is, I dont have to do a whole lot because Kimberly and Andrew put so much of their time into helping you out...
They try their best to get our shops exposed on the internet. And the best thing of all...they dont charge you one penny for all their extra efforts. Well, none that I am aware of and they have done a lot for me. I have a shop on Etsy, which I actually have been doing well enough, but I think I could do better. Etsy charges you for extra advertising and I didnt find that I had more visits or sales when I paid that little extra advertisement. So I think, with the experience that I have had so far, that Hand Made Artists is the best place to get the best exposure for what you make.
I strongly suggest you take a peek at the website...and dont forget to take check out my shop!
Great post, and I seriously think it's the best handmade site on the 'net.

Sweet post Wings N Scales! 100% support (and more) for the Handmade Artists!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Larissa, it is the BEST handmade site on the Internet.
lolo Andrew & Kimberly do a lot! I think you will get much more out of it all though if you get more involved in the forum and do some promo stuff too. I have a hard time doing as much as I would like to, but the forum is a great place to post your items and comment on others, join in some of the discussions on the general area. Sweet post though!
