Your own little store, on your own domain.
We build it. You keep your customers.
Made for candle pourers, Cricut crafters, hat & shirt makers, and home bakers ready to stop renting a shelf on Etsy. I build you a clean, fast little shop on your own domain and host it for a flat $12/mo — no slice of every sale.
A small setup fee, then $12 a month. That is it.
From $149–$249 one-time to build and launch it, then a flat $12 a month to keep it online, fast, and secure. No per-sale skim, no surprise fees, no dashboard for you to babysit. The caps below are not limits I am hiding — they are the whole reason it can cost this little.
What's included
- Up to 50 products — focused, fast, and easy to keep current
- A proven template layout, set up clean — no design-by-committee delays
- Flat-rate shipping, configured once — no shipping-table headaches
- Email support — you write, I answer, no ticket-portal runaround
- Your own domain + SSL — it is your store, not a marketplace booth
- No per-sale skim — a flat $12/mo, not a slice of every order
Etsy takes a cut of every sale. We take $12 a month.
Quick example — about $24 an item, ~40 orders a month, 30 listings. On Etsy the listing fees, transaction fee, payment processing, and offsite-ads cut add up to roughly $136/mo. Here it is a flat $12/mo.
Fee figures are illustrative and pulled from published 2026 rates — confirm current Etsy / Shopify / Big Cartel pricing before relying on the exact numbers.
Choose a palette, we set it up clean.
You bring the products and a vibe; we drop them into a proven layout in your colors. Three starting points below — live demo stores are coming as we finish them.
What this tier does not include.
Keeping it honest: the Maker Store is a clean, fast little shop — not a marketing engine. If you need ranking, ads, or a one-of-a-kind design, those are separate services. Most makers start here and grow into them.
Not included at this tier
- SEO retainer / ranking work
- Paid-ads setup or management
- Custom / bespoke design
- More than 50 products
- Tiered or weight-based shipping
Two ways to level up — same domain, same customers.
Hand it to us — agency-managed
- We add products, run updates, and keep the shop sharp
- You stop touching the admin entirely
- Same store, same domain — just off your plate
Scale up — full digital presence
- Custom design beyond the template layout
- Local SEO + ranking work, hosting included
- Grow the little store into a full site
Straight answers, no marketplace fine print.
How is this different from Etsy?
On Etsy you rent a shelf in someone else's store, pay a cut of every sale, and the customer belongs to Etsy. The Maker Store is YOUR store on YOUR domain — you keep the customer list, the email addresses, and the brand. We charge a flat $12/mo, not a slice of each order.
Why only 50 products?
Because the makers this is built for are selling a focused line, not a catalog. The 50-product cap keeps the store fast, keeps setup affordable, and keeps you from drowning in admin. If you outgrow it, that is exactly when the upgrade path kicks in.
Can I change the design?
You pick a palette and we set it up cleanly on a proven template layout. There is no open-ended design-by-committee — that is what keeps the price this low. Want a fully custom look? That is the upgrade to a full site.
What does the $12/mo cover?
Fast, secure hosting on Cloudflare's edge, SSL, your domain pointed and renewed, and the store staying online. No surprise fees, no per-sale skim. Payment processor fees (Stripe) are the only per-sale cost, and those go to the processor, not to us.
What is NOT included?
No SEO retainer, no paid ads management, and no custom design work at this tier. This is a clean, fast little store — not a marketing engine. If you want ranking, ads, or a bespoke build, those are separate services (and a natural next step).
What if I grow out of it?
Two upgrade paths: hand it to us to manage (we run the store, add products, handle changes), or scale up into a full custom site with the SEO + hosting retainer. Either way you keep your domain and your customers — nothing to migrate off a marketplace.
