Best of all as a standalone~ you have it whether you remain here or not it is yours forever [ as long as their hosting is available] & you can even transfer it to new hosting should the current host ever change policies [ unlikely but if in the event they pull a Ning , you'd have options~!Protections]

*************************************************

Or choose an ArtRave Boutique~ which will give you more exposure on this site & many other sites that will accept our html~ such as blogs & permalinks~!

Visit the Subtabs below this message to see our latest on site member boutiques and visit them~!

You can have a basic ArtRave Boutique built and set up for your art and have your own url made for it that you can tell all your family, friends and associates about and post links to it in your email signature, on forums, on blogs and anywhere you go online and before you know it, you will be having more traffic to all your sites and your sales will increase as a result, while you can have sales right in your boutique as well, since I can install paypal buttons for you, either with your own paypal embedded codes or from the ArtRave account.
So order your Boutique today and get started in selling your art online~!

First Time Set Up and Page is only a one time fee of $40.00 just to create your page. This will also include your first year as a boutique owner.

Then every year you will renew for only $20 to keep your boutique.

[It takes alot of work behind the scenes with set up & additional bandwidth used.]

The only way this may change is if hosting costs increase but those are usually very nominal.

I will take slideshows of your art and place them on a page with links back to contacting you and to your profile.
I will include links to any sites you currently have or sell at.
Just send me any info you wish to include in your boutique~ bio shops auctions and so on.

I will create & add the first banner free and give you the embedded code to use on other sites etc., as well as create a shortlink for your Boutique.

Everything you have listed for sale on ArtRave will be included for sale.

If you have your own paypal buttons for your items, you can email me the embedded codes and I will post them into your Boutique for you when you first open your Boutique and any other buttons you submit for the first 30 days will be added in and upgraded at no extra charges~

If you are an APAS or GOLD member, your promo platforms and ad links will be added. [makes a more informative Boutique]

If you are a basic member you can add things in the comments or send me the text to add any time as an Upgrade by using the paypal button to order your upgrades.

.
If you do not have Paypal buttons or can not make them, you can read the tutorials in the How-to-do forums and learn how and then make them and I will add them.

If you still cant or do not want to make your own paypal buttons, I can make them for you through my account and then collect and send your money to you when items sell, minus the paypal and adminstrations fees.This way saves you time but will cost you a small fee to have me do it for you.

Each Paypal button created can have up to 10 items at different prices.[See Copper Robin's Boutique! She has created her own paypal buttons, saving alot of fees and redtape!]

If you choose to have me make a Paypal button for you with up to 10 items in the list, there is a one time charge of $5.00 for each button added.

No upgrade charge applies when adding new buttons that I make for you, just the fee for making the button, so you can be at any membership level and order new buttons.

Additional Promo Links to your boutique and other websites can be added in any time after the first setup, for a one time fee of $5.00, to open and edit your Boutique, regardless to the amount of links you supply me with "in one text" So if you send me 1 link or 100 I will add them all at the same time for only $5.00.

Any time you wish to have your shop 'featured' for ` month on the Main Page, you can simply come back to this page and use the drop down menu and order it for the low price of $5 of the month~subscription! This is the most inexpensive advertising you will find online~

Any time you want additional banners created for advertising your boutique and art online, you can order them starting as low as $5.00 and will receive a variety of banners in different sizes and they can be customized to go directly to your Boutique or any website page you request.

After your initial Boutique is open for a month, anytime you want it rearranged or have items added or removed you can come back to this page and use the drop down window and order an Upgrade for $5. I will then contact you and work with you to rearrange your Boutique to meet its growing needs and your requests.

You can sell as many or as few items in your boutique as you wish~!

There are no monthly fees or per item fees.If you have your own paypal buttons, the only fees you will have is when you make a sale and that is between you and them.

If you choose to use ArtRavePaypal buttons, be aware that Paypal fees will be incurred as well as Administration fees which will be deducted before your money is forwarded to your Paypal account.

These are nominal fees as Administration fees will never exceed $1.50 per transaction along with the actual Paypal fees which currently are $.35 per transaction Plus 3.5% of the sale which is for example : $10.00 paid to Paypal -They charge $.69 for receiving the money netting $9.31 payable Minus the Administration fee of $1.50 would give you $7.81 of the actual sale.

If a buyer purchases multiple items in the Add to Cart, the Paypal & Administration fees combine which also saves you money.
Example: A buyer purchases 10 items at once: Paypal still charges $.35 for the transaction Plus 3.5% of the total price & the Administration fee is still only $1.50. Prices can change according to Paypal policies but it is still the best way to do commerce online.

You will not find better service for less anywhere online~!

Comment by Ave on December 11, 2010 at 8:37pm: Boutiques evolve~! As I find better things to add them to or advertise them at I do so automatically for each member`!

Whats great about Boutiques is you can combine all the websites you show and sell at and advertise them from one central location. Then the info in your Boutique can also be copied into most Blogs online and thus multiply the traffic to any of your sites. This gives customers a choice as to where they want to buy your art at. If a person only shops for example at Imagekind, but sees your Boutique and you have an Imagekind acct, they can simply click on YOUR Imagekind link and buy from you through Imagekind~

Since I dont charge commissions and allow cross promotions of all art sites through ArtRave, its a way to get you better known to a wider audience~! :)

Comment by Ave on July 24, 2010 at 6:50pm: A boutique is a little shop that can grow with areas to display your own unique artworks and items you have for sale.Boutiques can evolve along with your work and enable you to be able to communicate with your fans & viewers which can serve as your own mini website~!
You can list all the shops & sites you belong to and allow it to be the target for your banner ads & online promotions to direct your viewers where to find your art online.
Its also great for setting up custom & commissioned art jobs and discussions.

:) Prices reflect May, before the NingThing Happened an anyone who orders a Boutique no w will be saving money over the pending changes being implemented before Aug 20th deadline~

Contact me with any questions, or post your questions here for all to see :)

Comment by Ave on February 26, 2010 at 11:37pm: Boutiques are like deluxe paypages where you can sell direct to the customer from a variety of websites~ since you can have all your websites listed and use it like a hub for your online activity~
Even if you dont have other websites, a Boutique is a great solution that provides you a place online to actually sell your art~!A Boutique page can have slideshows of your art items, custom made paypal buttons and options for change as needed.Using a Boutique as a platform for your sales makes using one banner that is planted all over the internet, remain fresh and active and always customizable~!

Comment by Ave on February 24, 2010 at 1:11am: Members wanting their own Paypal checkouts & Boutiques, where they can promote and sell items from their other sites, should really consider having their own boutique here~!It serves as a platform for alot of online promotions~!

Comment by Ave on December 30, 2009 at 1:44am: From its inception to delivery, Boutiques are actually forming from your APAS & Checkout combined~! So your work is on its way to becoming a Boutique , just by your due diligence in properly editing your art and making it available here on AHI-FAN as a paid APAS Member~!! :)

Comment by JM-008 Janet Marston on December 29, 2009 at 11:34pm: I might be interested

Comment by Ave on August 31, 2009 at 10:05pm: Any ideas on what you would like in your boutique? With the holidays coming this would be a good way to display what you would want to sell that is 'gift specific' and might appeal to Holiday and Christmas shoppers~!!
