Long story short.

Pulled finger out of arse and set to with a shopify website. It was going to be for another idea, but finger up arse meant it was just there. So new domain name and away we go to earn my £££££s.

Hmmm more to this than shopify imply. The little buggers were stingy with the details.

Whatttttttt!!!! There's so much more to this mallarky than they said. Ohh and as for all the bum twitching conflicting information, what's all that about?

Images, don't make them too big file wise, hang on munchkin, don't make them too small! Oi cockwomble don't forget to name your images. Fart sniffer remember your "alt Text".

Hey Google why aren't I number one on page one? I listed it an hour ago. Hmmm Twat Waffle needs to learn about indexing, surely that's for libraries?

Jesus, Mary and the wee little donkey it's a shit storm in a candy floss factory.

Bugger I have some work to do and know so little.

Your's truly the "Dick Over Tits" confused Old Codger.

PS any pointers will be most welcome. You may have noticed I have Jack Shit idea of what I am doing.:rolleyes:

Shopify??

I use woocomerce and it's so much easier.
Yoast SEO for the ranking and tweaks of keywords.

There's plugins galore to help you out and a wordpress host is cheap as chips.
I have a friend who hosts all my stuff For £30 inc domain.
If anyone needs cheap hosting i highly recommend him.

Also what's with all the popups here now?
6 ads on this one page plus the popup ad i had to close to read it.

I'm testing the ads on the forum, appreciate they are very intrusive at the moment, should be gone soon. The new forum is taking shape and we should be able to move across very soon now.

I recall you posting that you gave up Etsy and Eblag some time ago, so I wondered how you drove traffic to your web site, TikTok or some other Social MeDia Platform or do you just have a sign on your vehicle :-)

Instagram mainly is where I do a lot of the promotion but I do have a good ranking on Google (No1 for what I do).

Sadly a few companies have taken my work and are selling it.
I have sent cease and desist letters but they don't seem to care.

One of the company's in question are blatant with it too ��
I make a lot of banners which keeps me very busy and it's all basically the same designs with different contact info so easy to edit and print.

I also make stickers which I have a vdp set up and just save the file with the new image and they print cut and perfcut on one go which means little effort for me.
