Sell Crafts, Buy Handmade
Hello,
I am new to craftsu. I have just set up my wedding shop page last evening. I would be most appreciative of anyone that would take a few moments to view my shop and offer words of advise.
My greatest joy in life is when I can touch someones heart and bring them joy with my sewing craft. This makes all my work worth while when I hear that I was able to make one person in this world happy with the gift I was given.
If you care to view my entire line of bridal designs at elegantdesignsbydenise.com
Thank you,
Warm Regards,
Denise

I've been building stores with wordpress myself this last couple of weeks.
I don't mean to sound like a know-it-all but do consider the following:
1) I don't see the keywords for "wedding" or "bridal" in your keywords and meta descriptions.
2) I don't see your keywords in your shop name and page title.
3) It helps if you can add your keywords into your product description as well.
4) Mention beautiful wedding dress a few times might get people to really look at it.
5) Looking at the home page, it looks like your store products is mostly Bridal Bolero and Capelet, and features a lot of childwear. Nothing wrong if that if those are your main products. It's just that you said "entire line of bridal designs" in your post here.
6) Shop theme - don't people associate weddings with flowers and pretty colors?
7) You have too many fields in your contact form. If that was an order form, it's fine. But who would want to fill in all those fields just to ask you a question.
8) Same as No.7 to register. Do you really need your customer's website, company name and tax number? Not unless you are a wholesaler.
On The Plus Side,
Hurray, your store is up and running!
Congratulations!

What I meant about the wording, my entire line of bridal designs, is to do with the products on the site. Perhaps Denise hasn't uploaded all her designs. Will be interesting to see her site and products.
