Google Analytics, and help getting more views/sales!

I got around to signing up for Google Analytics, so hopefully should be able to find out more about how much my shop gets viewed on Folksy! I need to come up with more ways of advertising my shop, as I don't seem to get many views per item... I have this blog, I have a facebook page, and I chat in the forums on Folksy. I have business cards, but haven't given many out yet, only to people who have already bought things!

I need more ideas, anyone got any?

I can't join a listing every day thing like June Loons, as I don't have time to craft every day, so wouldn't manage it!

In the last 3 months since I started this tiny business, I have sold 37 items to friends and family, and only 3 items to people on Folksy... how do I improve on this?

Any thoughts or ideas welcome!

Facebook Store!

I've finally added a Payvment Facebook store to my facebook page! Any feedback relating to it would be welcome :)

It can be found by clicking on the "shop now" tab here: Link


In other news, I haven't done much in the way of crafting in the last week or so, because I've been very busy, and the weather was so nice last weekend I spent most of my time outside! However I now have a week off work (half term, yay!) so should hopefully manage to get some more jewellery made this week!

First Blog

So I intend to use this blog to talk about some of my jewellery, and other crafts.

I have been into jewellery making for a while now, and especially love beads, charms and buttons, and most of my jewellery features these. I am also currently doing a silversmithing course to learn new techniques and ideas.

So yeah, if anyone has stumbled across this, keep an eye out for pictures of items I have made, links to where you can buy them, and information as to what I am planning next.

I have a folksy shop which can be found here: www.folksy.com/shops/Aranelwen go check it out! :)
