I've just spent some time putting some more items on my web shop. I'm really getting good at this!, when I first started uploading the photo's and putting in descriptions it took me ages... now I can do this in half the time. So if anyone out there is thinking of starting their own online shop as a hobby or trying to make an online wage then I can say it's not as hard as it looks.
Personally I use auctiva commerce as all the basics are there ready and waiting for you to use, they have step by step tutorials and a support team for the really hard problems!
The hardest part of web sales is getting customers. Putting all your stock online is great fun but if you are sitting in front of your computer screen waiting with bated breath for orders but are not getting your site promoted then you are going to suffocate!
Google is great with all the help they give, google base, adwords, etc, as I've had quite a few orders coming through from google. Getting banners/links on other websites is also good.
Favorite piece of jewellery today - Blue crystal necklace.
