About the MarketHub
The MarketHub is a free tool for all sellers on ArtFire, allowing them to share their presence on other sites with the ArtFire community. The MarketHub appears on all of a seller's active listings and provides links to other site profiles the user maintains.
The Market Hub generally appears like this on listings (thanks to Wooleycreek):
On your MarketHub, you can add in your website, blog and/or Blogger blog, Etsy Store, Flickr account, Facebook page, Twitter, YouTube profile, Indie Public account, and your Myspace page.
Notice that not all the options listed above are there. This means the user has not entered any links for those sites. If you haven't added any links for your MarketHub, they will not appear.
Setting up Your Market Hub
To get started with your MarketHub, first log into your ArtFire account and navigate to your MyArtFire. On the top navigational tabs, under the "Tools" heading, select the MarketHub on the left.
On the MarketHub page, you can enter in the different links to display your presence online. This page will also display the traffic you're receiving from these links on the right. If you do not currently have your MarketHub set up or haven't received any clicks to your links, this area will be blank.
If you have a website, enter it in the website box, if you have a blog, enter in the blog box, and so forth. Remember, you don't need to fill every one of these boxes out, you can just enter in the profiles you have. All unfilled boxes will be faded and unclickable on your MarketHub. We have also provided sample URL's for each website so you know what to look for when you are locating your URL's on the other websites.
Note to Flickr users: In order to enter your Flickr link, you'll have to set up your "friendly" Flickr URL. Click here to do so. We do not provide customer support for Flickr, so if you have trouble setting up your URL, please refer to Flickr's FAQ.
Once you've enter in all your information, click the "Save MarketHub" button at the bottom. Now you can check out one of your listings to see how the MarketHub appears to your buyers!
