www.otisbjewelry.com is the name. I have been designing and making my own jewelry for 5 years. How can I get my name out there?!?!?! Any serious suggestions from avid shoppers are welcome, thank you!

I do offer discounts, such as 25% through th end of the year for anyone who goes on, the code for it is: RN1W9GK6KSA0X1F35B6X
It is on the high end side, it is all made of semi-precious stones (not just beads) and all handmade by ME!

like the website the colors and design are really pretty and match your collection, i get the whole feeling. it also seems real easy to use. the way to get your name out there is by putting yourself out there, open booths a local festivals, maybe once a week at the mall, things like that, maybe branch out to the cities near you, get your jewelery sold at chain department stores like target or even clothes stores. best of luck.
p.s i know there must be a reason for the prices, materials and stuff, but still a little pricey.

The formatting and setting...with the font and colors and background you used all fit together..it looks very 'girlyish' and i like it =]...Though, i looked around the whole shop and I sort of thought the prices were way too expensive...Does it really cost you that much to make them? I think you shudmaybe add 10 dollars to the real cost it cost you to make it...because its always ebst to be fair to the customer since you are getting 10 dollars of profit. I mean I really do believe 150 is way too much for something thats handmade and beaded...but i think the 15 dollar bracelet you show on that page is not too bad with its pricing...theres a chance I'd like to purchase that ;]. I am impressed by the work you've put into both your work and your page. Its very nice. However, like I said, you may want to decrease the price of those items because I really do think theyre way too expensive. Anyways, I voiced my opnion for you so I hoped I helped...I didnt mean to be offensive if you thought of it that way though...I really hope you're business turns out successful because I'm sure that with just a little bit of more time and work you'll be the best all around! ;] Good Luck!
P.S. try handing out flyers to people if you have a shop or something where they can come in themselves and look at the jewelry since a lot of times...people feel more comfortable if they can see it right in their hands. k im done now...BYE =]

I think it all looks very good
I live in england so im not sure what the english pricing would be
However i think its very well set out and is clean and easy to navigate
You arent misleading anyone because the price is clear and the pictures show a lot of detail

It may seem a bit strange but i found out the other day that myspace is one of the top ten websites used for searching music and things like that
I have my own clothes website and i have a myspace page and use it to advertise and have got most of my customers through telling people what i did asking them to spare the time to take a look at my items

Im sure it could work for you too

hope this helps

I checked out your site and think it looks great. I'm an avid beader and my girlfriend and I are in the process of putting together a site of our own to sell our beaded jewelry, you can check it out at http://www.BeadedJewelryBoutique.com

I do know a lot about promotion and marketing a website and have been online for years. Make sure you increase the amount of sites linking to you as that will increase your search engine ranking. I'm looking for search partners so if that interests you once I get the site done, let me know. Also, make sure each page of your site is optimized for one or two keywords or phrases and not a zillion. Use your keywords in your titles and meta tags and multiple times within the copy of your pages.

If you're not using pay per click search engines for traffic you should be. You'll need to sign up for an account with Yahoo Search Marketing http://www.content.overture.com/d/ and Google Adwords https://adwords.google.com/select/Login - You can set a monthly budget of how much you want to spend.

If you want to download an ebook loaded with ideas and resources to promote and market your website go to http://WebSiteTrafficPlan.com there's also a 10 day ecourse you should find helpful in your marketing efforts.

I hope you found this helpful and good luck with your new site.

Way too expensive. It looks nice but I would never spend that much on some beaded jewelry.
