Choosing the right platform to sell your art online is one of the most important decisions you’ll make as an artist — and also one of the most confusing. Shopify, Squarespace, Wix, Big Cartel, Format, Pixpa — they all claim to be perfect for artists and they all have very different strengths, weaknesses and price points. We’ve spent 16 years in digital marketing, including a decade inside the art industry, cutting through exactly this kind of noise. Every review in this section is honest, UK-specific and written from real experience — not a rehash of the official marketing material.
