It occurs to me that there must be lots of us indies on stylehive - and if we all followed each other and hived each others products we would all benefit from the exposure and the obvious potential to be seen by both buyers and style / trend setters.
So here is my stylehive link - why not follow my hive me and I will follow your hive, and we can all become a powerful force in the community!!
I will add you in a mo - nice to meet you
I live in St Agnes which is on the North Coast and I must say that Zennor and Cape Cornwall is one of my fave areas.
I am 24 hours in and still finding it a bit confusing - I am informed by dawanda / etsy sellers that you have to make sure you add your own work to your faves and hope your followers hive it to make sure it gets seen by lots of people....
I will keep an eye on your hive for your own stuff and add it to get it seen :)
My strategy is to add five items from other Etsians, then one of my own. Jo--you're doing really well considering that you've just started. I only got my first follower a few months after joining!
Hi Meg! I just "followed" you. The thing to do is download the toolbar button that allows you to save things. Then go to the Etsy shops or websites of people whose work you like, choose an item, and click on that button. A new screen will open and you'll be prompted to add information about the item, like tags, price, etc. Once you save it it will appear under your "Saves & Wishlists" tab, and it will also show up in the appropriate community section, where other hivers will see it and maybe save it to their lists.
Hey all of you - great to have found you all on stylehive - I think it could be good - I have had a few follows more than yesterday. I have checked the stats on the work I have saved and a few other people have favourited it so it is slowly growing - I am planning to favourite others work as I see it added by them - so get busy adding your stuff
JUST signed up, like minutes ago, so I haven't the slightest clue about this, but it seems great.....the links i saw on here i followed, but here's mine http://www.stylehive.com/follow/mishfashion
Any comments you have, or suggestions, would be greatly appreciated! =)
