I'm not sure if this discussion started as a general or particular view on specific marketplaces, but I agree with many of your thoughts. In fact - similar requests from our members and our interest towards giving them the tools they need to have 10…

Great article! In case you don't know already, Tweet Deck is a tool that allows you to keep your twitter organized. It helps us, as we're following plenty of people and TD allows me to actually go through all the twits sent out in the air. And even…

As this discussion is already open, we could as well continue it, as it's a good way to listen to what you have to say and what you want from an online marketplace. I only want to emphasize that Mona is not someone from Silkfair's team, however, sh…

Your shop. Your way.

Ever wanted your own online Custom Shop but…
- was overwhelmed by figuring out where to start?
- not familiar with the programming & design that goes into creating your own site?
- was distressed about setting up and customizing it?
- worried about the security of your store?
- didn’t think you had enough time to set-up and maintain it?

Custom shop is a new upgrade from Silkfair Market Shop that allows you to completely customize the look and layout of their stores, putting you entirely in charge of your brand.

With Custom Shop from Silkfair, you’re given step-by-step customization with the click of your mouse. Choose from 10 different ready-made templates, which can be customized with your store logos, images, and colors allowing you to brand yourself the way you see fit. If you’re HTML savvy, you can put those skills to work and create an entirely unique template too. You also can forward your own domain, a URL chosen by you.

In just a manner of minutes, you can go from a Market Shop like this to a Custom Shop like this.

You will of course then have two shop presence but with the efficient management of one, because both shops share the same listings!

Those who have already signed up are raving about the upgrade saying:

"I made mine match my blog...I'm not planning on directing people to any longer." - Yoboseiyo of Jewelry Ninja

"Very positive experience working with the customizable store...This is truly awesome!" - Rich of The Steam Shoppe

Craft Marketer said :
"In simple terms, Silkfair is taking the best characteristics of Google’s Blogger and bringing them to the boutique web store (i.e. total customization, zero coding required, etc. – they outfit you with your own blog, forum, marketing tools, etc.)."

Custom Shops are reasonably priced; a low, monthly fee of $24.99 and a 3% final sales fee. Currently Silkfair is running two promotions; an introductory plan where the Custom Shop is $14.99 for the first six months or sellers can receive the first two months free by using the coupon code "launch09pub". The offering is risk-free, and can be cancelled at any time with no long term obligations.

If you currently have a Silkfair shop, you can begin customizing your shop by going to My Store → Manage My Store → Custom Design

If you don't currently have a Silkfair shop, you can begin by setting up a Silkfair shop. Visit My Store → Manage My Store to get started.

Your shop. Your way.
