Silkfair Market Shop and Custom Shop - rated 4 out of 5 stars
"Silkfair's custom shop is a hosted ecommerce platform that addresses two major categories of ecommerce entrepreneurs. Many new ecommerce business owners fall into one of these two categories.
First, there are subject or industry experts who decide to create an online presence.
Second, there are some ecommerce business owners that are web experts and decide to put that expertise to use selling something.
These two kinds of ecommerce owners have very different needs where ecommerce platforms and shopping carts are concerned, and it is the rare solution that addresses both."

"Despite the popularity of using existing marketplaces, like eBay, Etsy, and other eBay alternatives, Dillehay recommended that crafters also invest in their own domain name and Web site, since the craft business online is largely connected to one’s own presence."
" In his e-book, Dillehay reminds sellers that there is no guarantee of a sale just by listing on popular selling platforms, but five online marketplaces he recommends that have a good traffic rank and attract shoppers looking for crafts and unusual items include; eBay, Etsy, Artfire , Silkfair and 1000markets."

"In simple terms, they (Silkfair) are 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.)."
