Any helpful advice?

So, I am *thinking* of scaling back my Etsy shop in the new year, and either starting an independent page/shop somewhere or trying another craft selling site. I do have some listings at Artfire, but haven't had any sales there (decent views, tho). This may be because I'm using the free version--only 12 listings allowed, can't edit your shop as much, etc. I have looked at Dawanda, but it didn't seem right for me. I tried and didn't like Folksy. Used E-bay ages ago, not thrilled with the percentage they take. So--does anyone have any words of wisdom for me, or know of some places that I should check out? Does anyone use the paid version of Artfire? Thoughts on it?

Thanks, and Happy Holidays! :) Look--we actually have snow over here this year!
