Well, I have been selling a lot of hair bows & decided to expand my business & make me a website. I have been selling them strictly from Facebook & word of mouth. I have to say though that putting those websites together are not near as easy as they make it seem. I had no trouble really with the site just with the store part where you list what you want to sell. It throws me for a loop. Maybe it will be easier once I get it all figured out though. Hopefully. I am still struggling and may just end up getting someone to help me do it as I seem to have no clue where to go from the point I am on. Anyways, it is still a work in progress but I have a website!!! I am excited to get all the kinks worked out & to have it up & running full time. Check it out if you want www.hairbowsforyourprincess.com THis is not a referral link. This is my website. Just wanted to share it in case anyone wants to take a look :) Have a blessed day.

What platform are you using to build the site? If you're using WordPress there are a few plug-ins out there that will make your life a million times easier. The other option too is to set up an Amazon aStore on your site but I'm not sure if that will let you set up your own products. I've only ever used it to list Amazon products.

I say nice work you've done there. People usually start out with sites that makes yours look extremely professional (Trust me I've seen hellishly worse) I'm interested in what you're using to make the site and it's store - which is currently under maintenance - and how long it took you to make it. The theme is perfect for a ribbons site, though it has some problems which I'll list to help you out in developing your site. The pictures need to be of better quality, bigger does not mean better if it shows that you're taking pictures with cheap cameras. And the menu needs a little fixing, where the Visit shop! button is placed. Other than that you got yourself a very nice start.

nice works. i have always wanted to have my own site too, but still have no idea what to put in it. my wife says she wants to sell her projects so it can turn out to cash. she loves cross-stitch and she has a lot of them all over the house. maybe, this will be a great start, but not this time i guess.

i always wanted to have a website. but i do not know how to begin. i do not know how to build it. its a good thing that you have a website because you can promote your business very well and could increase your profit too.
