I use Create and get lots of regular sales. In my experience with support they have never tried to coerce me into upgrading. I think it’s a case of crossed wires as you have to upgrade your package in order to allow direct sales from Pinterest. That’s something I haven’t had a need to do. For regular pinning, it’s just fine and I seem to get a percentage of sales and clicks from that way alone.

Your website looks great. Clean looking and easy to navigate. That’s the most important thing for me, as a buyer, ease of navigation. The minute pop ups come or other fancy effects, I click off. I don’t want to look at that. I want simplicity and ease of use. It’s so irritating when you have to dodge around special effects and sliding images, and I hate and loathe drop down massive menus that obscure what I’m looking at.

I love the look of your website Maddie so I’m hoping they are still suitable, I will have a shopping cart as well but can still use Pinterest from Folksy or add pins from my photo gallery.
I don’t use Pinterest a great deal, at most I pin a new item from my shop so I wouldn’t want to sell from there. As long as I can link to my website and/or Folksy shop that’s all I need.
Was looking at the middle one, professional, worked out around £250 annually I think with a cart.
It should have been done in January but we had a huge problem at home which took up my planned time off, since then I got my new laptop set up ready to go then had an issue with it and it had to go back, they put a new motherboard in and I eventually got it back a few weeks ago but it is back to factory settings and I don’t have time to set it all up again at the minute. So frustrating I havn’t rven bothered logging onto it since.

I think my best improvement so far is navigating Folksy 
… but seriously, eyelets are my biggest improvement. My partner invested in an eyelet press for me , probably fed up with my banging and clattering and moaning. What a great tool, a much more professional finish and I’d recommend one to anyone that uses eyelets regularly. More control and precision
