Question by hempiehippie: How can I sell my Handmade Hemp Necklaces?
I’ve created some hemp necklaces of my own. I carved my own beads out of cherry wood , and handpainted them myself. I found the seashells on the Pacific Ocean shore. Now after all that work, I’m not quite sure how to go about selling them. I made a website:

But i’m unsure of how to get people to come visit it. Maybe someone knows of some free classified ads? Or any other ideas?

Question by Pinky75: good places to sell handmade earrings?
I make very unique handmade earrings and have a website but am wondering where I can advertise and other ways I may be able to market my stuff. Ebay isn’t an option for me but would like some other ideas you may have on how to market my business. I have posted on yahoo groups and craigslist so far.

A few places to sell handmade earrings would be local fairs, town events, and if successful set up some sort of advertising system so that the word can get out.

Question by hazystitcher: Whats the best way to sell a small number handcrafted items?
I want to sell a small number of handcrafted items – handmade bags – and I’m trying to work out the best way to do it. My first choice would be Etsy.com but I don’t have a credit card and won’t be able to get one. I’d prefer not to sell on Ebay but would be willing to use it if I can’t find anything else. My own website seems overkill for a small number of items (though I plan to expand). I can’t afford my own ssl now, so if I want to do something on my own website it has to be something that doesn’t need to be secure. I plan to use paypal as a payment processor. I know I can use paypal to make ‘buy it now’ buttons but I would prefer something a bit more automated. Any advice would be appreciated!
