Does everyone have a blog? Do you think it is necessary to have one to get traffic to your shop? Any tips would be appreciated!

Yes, I have one! I do think it helps (along with other means) to draw folks to my shop.

My latest blog entry is about having upcycled an odd trash find into a one-of-a-kind jewelry display for shows (and is probably the most upbeat story about having discovered a headless/limbless torso in a dumpster that you’ll ever read).

A bit of background: I managed to really over-commit myself for WindyCon (http://www.windycon.org) a Chicago-area sci-fi/fantasy convention in 2 weeks. I'm going to have work in the art show, plus I'm sharing a space in the dealer's room with another Etsian (http://www.etsy.com/shop/idiorhythmic) which I won't actually be staffing, since I'll be in the artist alley doing live work. Oh...and I'm doing 2 panel discussions.

Yesterday morning's project was finishing a resource list that I'll be sharing at a panel re: online marketing for artists. I posted it in my blog since...well...if I was making the list anyway, I might as well have a bigger audience for it, eh?

Enjoy!

I just blogged about The Scrap Box, a community-based creative re-use program, collecting post-manufacturing material donations for recycling by artists and educators (with a list of links to similar programs by state and province).

When I write a blog I always use fellow Etsians items in a hyperlink. It costs nothing to promote others and may lead to a sale for someone. Here is the latest one.
