Handmade Business Blog Articles: 50 Posts, Written

Fifty finished posts about running a small handmade or craft shop, with keywords and meta descriptions

Cover of Handmade Business Blog Articles: 50 Posts, Written

You keep meaning to start a blog for your shop. Then a week goes by, then a month, because every post begins with a blank page and a question you can't answer: what would anyone want to read?

This is fifty finished posts about running a small handmade or craft shop, written out in full and ready to edit. Each one comes with a target keyword, a meta description and suggested links to other posts in the pack. It is the written version of the Handmade Business Blog Starter Pack: the same 50 titles and keywords, with each outline turned into a full article. Read it as a book, or open the zip and paste each article into your blog editor.

By the end you will have

  • 50 articles of 800 to 1,200 words each, grouped into clusters: getting started, product ideas and research, pricing and costs, product photography, listings and marketplace search, branding and packaging, social media and email, craft fairs and markets, customer service and reviews, money, taxes and records, and growing and staying sane
  • For every article: the target keyword, a meta description under 155 characters, and 2 or 3 other articles in the pack to link to
  • A zip with one Markdown file and one Word file per article, ready to paste or import
  • A short guide on publishing: titles, meta descriptions, headings, one image with alt text, and how to make each post yours
  • A publishing plan: a suggested order for your first 12 posts and the links between clusters
  • 215 pages in the PDF. PDF for reading and printing, EPUB for phones and e-readers

Who it is for

  • Makers who want a blog about their craft business without writing fifty posts first
  • Bloggers writing for handmade and craft sellers
  • Shop owners who want a blog on their own website to bring in readers
  • Owners of the Handmade Business Blog Starter Pack who want the written version

What it is not

  • Articles about money, taxes and records carry a not-professional-advice line. Keep it when you publish
  • Not a promise of traffic, rankings or results

Questions

What formats do I get?
A PDF and an EPUB to read, plus a zip with a Markdown (.md) and a Word (.docx) file for each of the 50 articles.
Can I publish the articles as they are?
You can, but every article is better with your own photos, a line of your own experience and a check of the facts. Search engines and readers both prefer posts that are clearly yours.
Do I need the starter pack too?
No. This pack contains the same plans, written out. The starter pack is the cheaper choice if you want to write every post yourself.
Are the keywords checked in a keyword tool?
No. The keywords were chosen by judgment from the topic. Check volumes in a keyword tool of your choice before you publish.
Can I use the articles on more than one site?
On your own sites, yes. For your own blog or website. You may edit and publish the articles on your own sites; you may not resell, share or give away the files, or pass the articles on to others.
Has an expert reviewed the articles?
No. Read every article, add your own experience and check the facts before you publish; the pack names Etsy only as a marketplace.
