🌵Coy🌵: Artists/Crafters of Bsky: What website do you recommend for a small merch shop? What options are there aside from Etsy? Can it be done through Kofi? I'm basically starting over after being out of the sales-game for almost a decade and don't know where to start. #art #artists #merchstore

Most popular I've seen seems to be Big Cartel. www.bigcartel.com www.Ko-fi.com also had a shop option that iirc doesn't cost money or take a percent.

i do mix of patreon for shop + crowdmade for print on demand, and commissions ko-fi/vgen. ko-fi does have store and a shipping address request when ordering if you enable it tho so can work for everything probably?

i make more in-person sales than sales online tbh. left etsy a couple years ago and organic reach online is nearly impossible now. i would also like to know. I use wordpress for my main site and can probably connect buttons from paypal or something.

I use Big Cartel - cheap and easy to use

Yeah kofi's pretty good, there's also storenvy which has custom storefronts and a marketplace

I like Making although it is quite small

I shared this on my "Horrorculturist" account. Hope somebody has helpful ideas! (I'm not an artist; I just follow lots of artists.)
