    Yes. This. The name Folksy irritates me more than is entirely rational. It's such a stupid word!

    I have a bit of expeirence with ecommerce, and my advice is that it's not about which is better, you should just be active on every platform possible. Sell on Ebay, Etsy, advertise using Facebook. Plus go to ANY trade shows. Mizgeorge is right, selling jewelery online is a difficult business. I'm not super with ecommerce websites but I made mine through this site and they were good. But you can always just start up a blog easily that I think you can connect that to your ebay account. I was selling sculptures though so it's a bit different to jewelery.. I maybe sold two or three pieces a month depending on the season. But jewelery you really want to get it everywhere. I'd love to see your stuff though, have you decided what to use? I've just made the transition to to jewelery from sculpture and would like to make this into a business to

    It seems you are not alone in this. My daughter (aged 23), said she wouldn't consider even taking a peek at the website as the name made her want to vomit! (which I thought was a bit of an over reaction, but that's not all), she also
    said it made her think of ageing hippies running around the woods naked, hugging trees and whittling clogs from their own earwax!
