Get My Free Mini Course On How To Start A Successful Ecommerce Store The truth is that Etsy stores are at a major disadvantage when it comes to selling and marketing goods to the end customer compared to shops that own their own website and domain. So today, I decided to write a comparison post about disadvantages of running an Etsy store vs your own online store.
In addition, there’s also been an increase in complaints about lower traffic and sales due to the last Google update. Many Etsy store owners have the desire to launch their own full blown online stores but are afraid of the technical and marketing challenges in doing so.Īnyway, whenever I browse the Etsy forums, I often see Etsy store owners complain about low sales volumes and increased competition due to the sheer volume of shop owners on the site. Many Etsy store owners would eventually like to quit their day jobs. The reason I like reading the Etsy forums is because most if not all Etsy users are casual shopowners who have a strong desire to make some extra money on the side. Similar to Ebay, Etsy provides an easy way for talented crafters and artists to sell the fruits of their labor with an Etsy store. As part of my weekly ecommerce research routine, I like to read and participate in various small business forums and one of my favorites is the Etsy forum.įor all of you who have never heard of Etsy, Etsy is a marketplace for do it yourself and handmade goods.
