When , most people instantly think of etsy.com or artfire.com. Both are absolutely great places to set up an online handmade craft shop. But simply creating a shop won't get your handmade crafts noticed by shoppers or the sales you want.

You must use effective marketing techniques that will drive targeted traffic to your shop. Sounds easy right! Well online marketing isn't as easy as it may sounds. There are a variety of techniques, search engine optimization, link building, pay-per-click campaigns, social networking, email campaigns and the list goes on and on.

Some handmade artists believe that simply having a blog where they blog about their handmade crafts will get them noticed. And unfortunately blogging doesn't always get you noticed either.

I actually takes a combination of all of the online marketing techniques above to get your online handmade craft shop noticed. These techniques also require a lot of time and some require a good deal of money. I know this because I manage the online marketing campaign for that markets handmade artists and their online shops.
