It's fitting that on the same day I filmed a video praising Etsy's features, they sent out an email announcing fee increases. But, I'm not running from the platform. Obviously, no one wants to give up more of their money, but the benefits to my customers and my business are still worth the price, for now.

Are you scared of the fee changes? Just starting to sell your art online, or wondering if now is the time to leave Etsy? Selling online is not a one size fits all formula. Every platform has its mix of pros and cons. In your research, you will find reasons to host your online store on Squarespace, Shopify, and others. There are plenty of videos urging you to stay away from Etsy, so I'm here to add the story of leaving my Squarespace store to join Etsy and how it changed my online sales for the better.
