Make money online with print on demand services


Hello friends and Zazzlers!


I think you'll enjoy this postage! I have been doing well with Zazzle and there are still a lot of Zazzle products that I never even tried. I need to create a lot of new ones but life hasn't been easy on me for the last couple of months, so it has been a long time since I uploaded anything fresh to the store. This being said it's kind of a silly thing to dream about going elsewhere than Zazzle! At least for now. But next year I will try to sell some of my work via other POD sites. I've been curious about POD opportunities available for some time, I've been collecting links and finally, I made a list of some places where we can sell designs, illustrations, and photos online. This list is not finished work! For those unfamiliar with POD concept, POD is a specialized custom product provider. POD offers services and provides the product, you provide the content, and with some talent, hard work, and luck you'll make some money!

Some of these print-on-demand sites were already familiar to me - Cafe Press, Lulu, Spreadshirt, Imagekind. But I don't have a clue if they are running well or not if it's easy to upload our art to it, and if sales do happen or not. If by any chance you are familiar with any of these sites, please leave your opinion about it on the comments field. It will be useful to me and other visitors. I think we can help each other a little by sharing information. I have an account on RedBubble but I never uploaded any work there. I can only share that I created a book with Blurb and it all went well. I downloaded the Blurb's software to my computer, it was easy to use and the book looked great when it arrived home. Do you have any experience to share?


1.At Lulu, it’s free to publish, and authors can create everything from hardcover books to eBooks, photo books to calendars. Authors keep all the rights to their works and retain 80 percent of the profit they set when their books sell.

2.MyGrafico is not POD but it's interesting and fun. Due to the high volume of applications mygrafico only accepts Designers with a creative portfolio and a high drive for success and commitment.
