Selling Merch on Your Website

[Kane]

Do you sell merch on your website? Do you generate a lot of sales?
Currently, I am not selling merch from my website, however, in the past I have sold merch from multiple sites. I was able to sell these sites because they generated some revenue through merch sales. I am thinking of going back to selling merch.
If your website has organic traffic, selling merch is one of the bets ways to generate revenue.

That's not something I would consider doing, but if I thought it would sell, I might change my mind. For instance, look at website t-shirts.

Sites that receive organic traffic can earn through merch. If you have organic referral Traffic, you can also earn from merch. However, if your traffic is direct or mostly coming from your page, it might be very difficult to sell merch. Since it does not cost any money to sell merch, there is no harm in adding merch store on your site.

Some of my sites I do have a little shop on them, but lately I haven't bothered much with shops. Now days when I make a new site, and it calls for merch, I just make one of those Spreadshirt sites, and have designs made. It's surprisingly pretty good.

The website t-shirts can be cheaper as well instead of having to sell the other one. What is important is analysing to ensure that you have a community-based ecosystem that is ready to buy what you are planning to sell as well.

Bizdustry is a huge community, it has a merch section, do you think Bizdstry generates a lot of merch sales? I think the key to generate merch sales on your site is bringing targeted traffic and not just any sorts of random traffic.
