Please give us a short summary of your website?
We offer a unique collection of fashionable ladies sandals and flip flops at affordable prices!! We also carry collectibles, cosmetics, pet supplies and party supplies.
What inspired you to launch your own website?
Decided that I was tired of working hard for someone else and having to hope and wait for that hardwork to be recognized and hopefully rewarded so I decided to try to start a business that hopefully will supplement my income.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
May 2009, www.collectiblesandmore.ecrater.com
How did you decide on a name for your website?
I am interested in collectibles and more in terms of items to sell so that seemed logical.
What makes your website different from other, similar offerings?
I think that our prices are very reasonable and affordable! Our sandal and flip flop prices are cheaper than the Wal-Mart!
What is your eventual goal? (To sell it, keep it for income, secure a book or other mainstream media deal?)
My goal is to build the website to a income earner and eventually continue to add new product lines. Keep it and hopefully utilize it to pay for a college education for my kids!
How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?
Right now, it's generated very little income however, it's very early and I am hopeful!
If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?
I would spend money advertising it!
If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?
I would sure like the opportunity to find out!!
What unexpected costs and headaches have you had to deal with?
None.
What has been your biggest challenge?
Patience! I am not good at waiting!
What method has been most successful for promoting your website?
Craigslist
How has running your website differed from your expectations?

How long have you run the site already, and how long will you continue to keep it up if you don't enjoy big gains in traffic, income or popularity?
I will keep it up for as long as it takes!
