I received the following email from a reader recently: “I’ve been making jewelry for several years & sell some to friends, co-workers, & neighbors. I’m not very computer savvy but would like to start my own web site. Do you have any suggestions?”
I’ve been asked this before, so I thought I’d throw out a few ideas here for everyone. Here are some easy to start up and run web site ideas for those with little money and little technical expertise:

Free Blog Networks: Wordpress.com and Blogger.com are just two of the many free networks on the web that will allow you to set up a blog and write about pretty much anything you want to. Plus, weblogging software is relatively easy to use. Nothing says you have to just blog on a blog site. You can also post new jewelry pieces you have made for sale.
Free Web Sites: There are still a lot of places that allow you to set up a free web site like Geocities.com. Just make sure you check their rules about posting products for sale. Some have restrictions about this. While I don’t think their software is as simple as most blogging software, much of it is not all the difficult to master pretty quickly.
Etsy.com: Of course, most of you know I’ve been playing around over at Etsy.com, and I think that it is pretty easy to navigate for the most part. It is free to set up a shop, and the fees for listing items and selling items is fairly small.
Ebay.com: This is another site where you can open a store. They allow you to create a shop that has “buy now” merchandise as well as auction abilities.
Ruby Lane: You can also set up a site at Ruby Lane, and this has become pretty well-known. It specializes in arts, antiques, and vintage items for sale. So, hand-made jewelry would fit in fine over there.
If you can recommend other places to set up a fairly inexpensive and easy jewelry web site, feel free to post the links in the comments.
Of course, I’ve just discussed the “set up” process here. Getting customers to come to your shop is a whole other issue to deal with.
