Having an online storefront to sell your artwork, like handmade clothing, jewelry, or pottery, is a great tool to drive and promote your business. There are many options for selling online, such as marketplaces like Etsy and Ebay, but with these you run into competitors overlapping your business and extra commission fees. This can feel like a safe option but you may find it has limitations and more fees than you expected. That’s where having your own personal website comes in.
For some artisans, building a website can be challenging, but it doesn’t have to be. Zibster gives you all the tools and resources you need to sell your artwork online, plus we don’t take any commission fees. That’s right! What you earn is yours, you just pay the standard merchant fees (we can’t get around those credit card processing fees, we have to pay them too). What you won’t find with a Zibster website is listing fees, or sale fee redactions, or commission fees. With a Zibster website, you have complete control over the prices and the profit you make from your art.
So how do you build a website to sell your art? In this blog post we’ll show you how easy it is to choose a template and personalize it to meet your needs. The style of artisan focused websites can range widely, the key is having a place to display and sell your products. Zibster gives you tons of options to highlight your products and create an online storefront that is easy to manage.
