Should I start with Etsy or Shopify for POD and digital products in 2026?
Anonymous • in 3 hours • No answers yet
I’m a complete beginner and I want to start selling print-on-demand items and/or digital downloads, but I don’t have experience with either type of product yet.
I’m trying to decide whether it’s better to launch on Etsy first or build a Shopify store from the start. I’m also not sure what marketing channels tend to work best for these kinds of products.
What’s the best platform to begin with, and what marketing approach should a new seller focus on first?
