Etsy & CraftCult
I love it that you can sell handmade items as well as crafting supplies. I usually order oodles of craft supplies because from most wholesalers you have to order in bulk. And that always leaves me with lots of crafting supplies left over. I know I could save them for next year and so on, but my shelves are full. So this week, I am making a goal to try to clean them out a bit. I can't wait to see how this goes. lol.
Another great thing I've ran into when fiddling with Etsy is the cool plugin for blogs. It's from the site CraftCult and it puts like a virtual shopping box on your blog of your shop. It's really cool and free. See it in action here on my blog.
Here's what my lil store facing looks like on my blog from CraftCult:

Do you blog?
I was just closing out the evening by visiting sites that I have written down in my organizer. I have a list that I like to view on occassion to see how things are going. And one of those sites is Google Adsense.
Google's Adsense is basically a program that allows you to get paid by allowing Google to place targated ads onto your blog or website. I like it but the earnings come in slow. And I mean slow!
And what's even more said is that traffic is down considerably also on my other blog, Old Crow Prims. I am not sure why that is. Well, it has never been in the fast lane of viewing anyways. But believe me, when I log on and just see 5 views a day, I get all excited! Just knowing someone is interested in your posts is awesome. But then again, they may have gotten there by total accident. Who knows? lol. Either way, I am estatic just to see my counter climb, even by if only a few views a day.
So anyways, that all leads me to the question I started out with in my head when beginning this post.
Do You Have a Blog? If so, feel free to leave me a link. I'd like to check it out!
Do you have any creative ways to drive traffic to your blog?
