Here's A Run-down of the Website For Sellers:
Just go to etsy.com and register for a new account. Once you have your own account, you will need to sign up to sell. The sign up page to sell simply asks for a name, address, and billing info so they can confirm your identity. Therefore, if you're under 18, you'll need a parent to help you with that. And once you have signed up to become an etsy.com seller, all that's left to do is list your items and wait for an interested buyer.

However, there are some fees linked to being a seller on etsy.com. They charge 20 cents for each item put up for sale, and a 3.5% sales fee. These fees will be charged to the credit card you provided when you signed up to become an etsy.com seller.

Etsy.com is not just for people in the United States, you can sell in many other countries also.

Etsy.com also has job openings ranging from a system administrator to a flash developer, to find out more about the job openings at etsy.com visit the link at the bottom of the etsy.com homepage.

Overall, etsy.com is a great place to make some extra cash for doing something you love, and the best thing of all is that you're the boss- you set the price and you make the merchandise!
