    Zazzle is most popular,but cafepress is not far behind, so try both of them to make and sell t-shirts.
  • Milloy76 Mar 8, 2012 @ 11:04 pm | delete
    Sites liKe Zazzle and Cafe are great if just want to create designs for their marketplaces. It is also good if you do not want to deal with customer service.

    If you are interested In your own t shirt business where you control what marketplaces your designs get posted to ( such as eBay, your own website) and you want to control your own customer service then I would give a site like tshirtgang.com a try
  • wilfredpadilla Mar 5, 2012 @ 8:57 pm | delete
    I will create a zazzle account to know if I can do this.
  • CNelson01 Mar 5, 2012 @ 10:42 am | delete
    I love Zazzle as an artistic outlet. I've ordered a number of my own products but I haven't ordered a T shirt yet. I know their cards and mugs are top quality. I've sold a lot of shirts so one day I'll have to order one for myself. Helpful lens!
  • goo2eyes Mar 3, 2012 @ 6:54 am | delete
    i have zazzle account. if i make full use of it, do i pay some fees upfront? i'm afraid to be confronted with a big bill at the end of the month. i have to read the terms and conditions of zazzle carefully. i want to sell shirts online too. blessings for this business-oriented lens.

    As far as T-Shirts go, I like Zazzle & CafePress to test the water and see if you have a hit or a dog; once you have the hit, then get it professionally screenprinted. I find that these sites are the ones making all the money. Good lens, thanks for the information.

    I know that a lot of people use Zazzle and Cafepress which is fine, but if your really want to make money at it you need your own domain and make sure that it matches you products.
    then you can your shops to it and control your advertising.
    trust me it works better than just having a shop.
