SquareSpace– $30/month

If you’ve ever listened to a podcast, you’ve heard about SquareSpace. There’s a reason it’s so popular. With beautiful layouts and an intuitive building system, you can set up shop with no muss and no fuss.

Ecwid– $15/month, but free for up to 10 products

Ecwid is perfect for those who are looking to embed a small store into their existing website. If you’re only looking to sell a few products, such as service packages, you’re in luck- Ecwid is free!

Foxy– $20/month plus $0.15/sale

Foxy, previously known as FoxyCart, is perfect for those who have a bit of coding experience and want e-commerce platforms that start them off simple and let them build up from there. Foxy offers a free trial for those who just want to dip their toes.

Etsy– Pricing varies

Perhaps the most well-known on the list, Etsy is where the artistic go to share their goods and services with the world. Etsy is perfect for shops that focus on homemade goods, as it offers both buyer and seller protection. Etsy’s fee schedule is a little different- It costs $0.20 to post a product, then charges a 3.5% transaction fee once it’s purchased. Implement those costs into the selling price of your product, and you’ll never even notice it’s missing.
