Anyone know what service has the best website setup for Custom Knife makers that is easy to setup for advertising your knives? I know how to upload images & text, but that is about it. Thanks for any advice in this area in advance!:confused:

If you just want to show your work and provide contact information, that is pretty easy and inexpensive. There are several services that provide "cookie-cutter" websites where they provide templates and you add your text and photos. GoDaddy is one.

If you want to actually sell and process orders online it gets considerably more complicated with shopping carts, credit card processing, secure certificates, etc.

Check out http://www.atlantavirtual.com/, they are used by a "lot" of knifemakers (including me :D), as well as for the Knifemakers' Guild. Alex is a good guy and will help you out of a jam.

Stay Safe,

I am in the process of building my website and I'm using Microsoft Expression Studio 2. I would recommend that you build your own website and then select a host for it.
