Can You Use the Store Name in Product Description at Zazzle?

2013-05-16T02:08:00.002-07:00

A new shopkeeper I know recently asked me if it is all right to our store name in the product description area on product pages in our store at Zazzle.

There is no need to worry about that. Our store names are automatically on each page with links that can get customers where they want to go. Also, the system automatically attributes each product within our store to that store name so adding it as a tag is just duplicating efforts.

If you didn't notice the store name in a link already on each product page, make sure to spend some time exploring each page. The layout has had some changes several times over the years that I've been a customer/shopkeeper at Zazzle, so I explore from time to time.

If you thought you'd place a link in your description as a way of keeping more traffic rather than their moving to another shop, consider that some people spend way too much time trying to figure out ways to gain sales from Zazzle. Using the system or marketplace can get some people that aren't fully aware of the user agreement and other policies into trouble.

If you're worried about traffic, the best way to get traffic to your store is to start social networking, blogging, creating websites, and utilizing other marketing opportunities.

Vadering Without Minions ... Impossible

2013-05-11T06:44:00.001-07:00

Vadering, originally uploaded by Headlines & Heroes.

I can't think of anyone handy that I could talk into allowing me to take their photo while someone else pretended to put the Darth Vader choke-hold on them. Guess that means I'm getting old. Or maybe it is just because I am a woman. My friends and I were all big science fiction fans, but most of the ladies I know are too busy raising the kids that are Vadering to be trendy themselves. I imagine some of us have children that would say ... "Ah, Mom, did you have to post that one on Facebook?" All bets off with some of the men that are my age. :)

Photo Via Flickr: Listen up, all you meme-ers! This just in—there's a new meme in town and it comes from a galaxy far, far away. It's called Vadering.

Photo of a Vintage One Wheel Motor Cycle ala Men in Black III

2013-05-03T21:06:00.001-07:00

Eénwielige motorfiets / One wheel motor cycle, originally uploaded by Nationaal Archief.

When I saw the movie MIB III and the young MIB people past version of K had a one-wheeled motorcycle that the present-day J had no idea had ever existed I thought it was pretty silly.

But, wouldn't you know ... in 1931 there really was a one-wheeled motorcycle. I think I know why it didn't last! But, it is an interesting idea.

Pigeon Wedding Party, originally uploaded by AnnaleeBlysse.

I was so very impressed with the results of this photo of a wrapped canvas print. I bought it for a present for a couple that got married years ago in the Park Wedding Chapel in Reno, Nevada. The chapel is no longer standing. The photo features a row of pigeons that were witness to their comings and goings at the chapel on the day of their wedding.
