Zazzle Shop Pros and Cons

* Each time a visitor clicks from your site to Zazzle.com and makes a purchase, you earn a 15% referral fee on that sale. Note: in order to do this you must be signed into your Zazzle account and get the code under the link tab, which is shown under each product.

* You can add banners to your Zazzle shop and banners outside of your shop like this one.


* Upload your own customize header to a template of several different background colors to chose from. Or you can chose from several theme templates.

* Though you don't have to know much about HTML, the more efficient you are with HTML, the more creative you can have your gallery looking.

* One shop can hold multiple product lines. No need to have several shops for different designs. Though there are some Zazzle shopkeepers that choose to have different shops. Example: I have 8 different product lines in one shop.

* You can use the same product (example: men's dark basic t-shirt) several times with a different design all in one shop.

* Zazzle, along with most online shops have a high base price. Overall it is higher than Cafepress. The base price is what Zazzle.com charges for each item. The base price is with 0% mark-up.

* You can set your Zazzle shop to accept comments.

* You have your own fan club.

* People can rate you products. (I have mixed feelings about rating systems. If a person is out to get you, they can mess up your rating system. It can be a popularity contest.)

* Zazzle Modules look nicer than the CafePress modules that are used on Squidoo. Though sometimes it is a little hard getting the right keyword, if you want certain products in your modules. (Note: A Zazzle module will not give you the affiliate fee if someone clicks on your link and buys your product..)

* With most non-apparel items, you can add colored background and borders to your product.

* You can chose a selection a real models to show off your apparel.

* You can add more than one image to a product.

* Add text to your designs right off of the Zazzle site.

* Set your products for anyone to customize. They can change the image, text, size, style and even the type of product to their liking. How cool is that.
