I have created jewelry for a few years as a hobby, but have been encouraged to turn it into a business. Since I also have experience with websites, this could be the right time to combine two things I love to do.

Any ideas on jewelry as an online business and how best to proceed?

If you're planning to sell jewelry, you will need to have payment processing worked out. Paypal is a good choice because most people recognize the name. Paypal is an easy set up but there are fees though reasonable in my opinion.

You can indeed setup a Online Jewelery shop and sell your Jewelery There are various Shopping carts like Zen Cart, Magento, OS Commerce, Cube Cart, E-shop, Virtue Mart, Presta Shop which can be used. For accepting payments, you can integrate various payments gateways like Paypal, Money Bookers, etc. For safe payments transactions via your website ,you need to install a SSL on your domain name.

If you want to sell online, you need to have a shopping cart, there are many different options out there, you just need to try out the demo's and see if you like what they have to offer. You could also include Avactis shopping cart in Ross lists. I like this cart because it has full of powerful marketing tools, integration with QuickBooks, a Facebook storefront, mobile skins, and responsive technical supports. They also have 40+ payment gateways available for you to choose from.

Many jewelry online sites use drop shipping services due to the ease of operation and minimal costs.
