A marketplace sends you customers, and that is the whole reason you are on it. It also means your shop name, your reviews and the way people find you all sit on someone else’s property. Many sellers start wanting a small site for a simple reason: when a buyer asks where else they can find you, there should be an answer.
What a site of your own does for a marketplace seller
The goal is not to pull everyone away from your shop. It is to give customers who already like your work a place to learn more, see your full range and remember you by name.
A website can show the story behind what you make, your process, custom order details and the occasions you are best for. It can link each collection straight to the matching listings in your shop, so the marketplace still handles the sale.
What goes on the first version
- ✓Home page with your best three products — an instant picture of what you make
- ✓Collections that link to your shop — each button goes to the right listings
- ✓About and process — the person behind the work and how it is made
- ✓Custom order request form — for the things listings cannot handle
- ✓Shipping and care notes — the answers buyers send you repeatedly
Selling from your own site is a separate step
A full store with a cart and your own checkout is a bigger build than a first site, and it is scoped separately from the packages on this page. Many sellers begin with the simpler version, watch where customers go, and decide on a store later.
If you need to take deposits or payments for custom work, we can connect the payment tool you already use, or help you set one up. Fees on those tools belong to the provider, not to us.
What to send us
- ✓Your shop link and a few top listings — so we can match names and photos
- ✓Product photos you own — we only use images you have the right to share
- ✓Your story in a few lines — even rough notes are enough to draft from
- ✓Your policies as you state them — processing time, returns and custom order rules
What to expect, honestly
- ✓We do not copy your listings in bulk — we feature the best and link out
- ✓A full store is scoped separately — the first site points to your shop
- ✓Marketplace rules stay with the marketplace — check them before linking
