Join the Handmade Emporium
Our Handmade Emporium is a seasonal showcase for handmade artisans and shop owners.
IndieSpotting is all about promoting independently made products, and the Handmade Emporium is where consumers can “window shop” a small group of hand-selected goods in an attractive marketplace setting.
How We Feature You
The Emporium is not juried (we want everyone to have a chance in the spotlight – however, registration is limited to handmade sellers). Each participant will receive their own shop page (complete with custom URL for easy linking) that features the following information:
- Up to 12 product images with product name, price and brief description
- Shop/artist bio and/or description of products and services
- Direct link to your website
- Links to Twitter and Facebook profiles and/or blog (optional)
- Coupon code (optional)

How We Promote
Each shop in our Handmade Emporium will be promoted to our growing social network of Twitter followers (18,200+) and our Facebook fans (2,350+).
Every participating shop receives equal exposure to our readers. We advertise the Emporium at the bottom of every blog post on IndieSpotting ~ each page load reveals three different shops that rotate at random. The same goes for our Emporium home page; the order of shops rotates on every page load.
We also regularly feature Emporium shops in our email newsletter and on our Facebook welcome page!
