Craft Show
Help and Discussion Forum

Welcome to the Craft Show Help and Discussion Forum, a free service we provide for you our readers. Everyone is invited to join in. You don't need a member login, or even have to go through a registration process. It's free, fun, and easy to do!

This is the place to discuss anything related to selling your beaded jewelry at craft shows. Whether you have a question, or would like to just share some tips and tricks or your personal experiences, please feel welcome to join in.

Rather than answering individual questions via email, this will give everyone a chance to read about problems that others are having, and find out how to solve them. It will become a FAQ and discussion about selling your handcrafted jewelry through craft shows.

The advice I give is only my way of doing it. Please help me by contributing to the answers. This is a two way web page...you and me. You can ask a question, answer a question or do both. You will become my co-expert on these questions by rating and submitting comments.

Important: If you do not include enough information in your question, we will not be able to answer it. Please be as detailed as possible.

This forum is for everyone to participate in, let's join together to solve our problems. The idea here is to help and be helped. The more the merrier!

You have the option to upload a photo if you want to show the problem. Sometimes it helps to see what you are talking about, but it's not absolutely necessary.

(Having a good quality image will help show your piece to its best advantage but, please limit the overall size of your digital image to 800x1200 pixels or under. I am sorry we are not able to help you with photographing your image --- you are on your own here. Google offers a free image editing software called Picasa if you need to adjust the size of your image before sending.)

High Value Jewelry Business Website Links

Webmasters, read this!!

High value links are very important for the success of a website. Many webmasters therefore entice in a link building policy by reciprocal linking to every website they can find, related to their website or not. We have reason to believe that such a policy will not lead to a successful website.

Instead, what a website needs are links from related websites, with a good piece of text about what the website is all about. In other words, a recommendation from one website to another.

Well, this is exactly what we can offer you!! Just write a short (or long, if you like) article about Craft Shows. The article serves as content for our website, and we reward that with a high value link to your website.

Our guest authors report a significant flow of traffic coming from their article links on this Home Based Jewelry Business and Design Guide!

Special note: Your article will receive comments from visitors. The better the comments, the better it stands out between the other articles, and the better your link is promoted!! So, make sure your article has great content!!

Our Rules for a High Value Link

* Your website has to be about Handmade Jewelry or a site that can benefit Jewelry Designers.

* Write an article about craft shows. It could be on how to find good ones, what to look for when selecting one, exhibiting and selling tips, experience you've had in exhibiting, boothmanship, dealing with customers, etc. Great information that will help other jewelry designers in successful selling at Craft Shows.

* The better the content, the better the link!!

* Choose a catchy and creative title that will get attention.

* Choose a nice picture for extra attractiveness. (optional)

* I may edit your article slightly for spelling, punctuation, grammar, or search engine keywords.

* Write out your website URL on the position you would like. Don't use HTML, we'll activate it upon approval.

* Please include a link to our website on yours.

* We'll review the article, and publish it with an activated link.
