Starting All Over

Hi All, Well.. I started making the jewelry for my website, http://weddingjewelrydesigns.com/ over 2 years ago, and loaded all the bridal jewelry into the site. Once it was completed, I hired someone to input some of the wedding jewelry data that would allow customers to customize the jewelry. Unfortunately, their web server kept on crashing, which crashed my database and I lost most of my jewelry and all of the customizations.... So, I'm way, way behind where I should be at this point... I'm trying to play catch up now... I've also opened up an Etsy Store for more exposure and will be adding new designs as well. http://weddingjewelrydesign.etsy.com/ -- Etsy's great... They have apps and blogs and tools telling you how to promote yourself.. I've listed myself at deviant art as well, at their suggestion... http://weddingjewelrydesign.deviantart.com/ - just listing one piece of jewelry, and I got 2 people who listed the piece as a favorite in the first day! That was exciting! So, I'll do more self-promoting. If anyone has more ideas for me, please let me know. My jewelry is all customizable. I design all my own wedding and bridal jewelry and work with Sterling Silver, Primarily Argentium Silver, which barely tarnishes, if at all, Natural Freshwater Pearls, Gemstones, Swarovski Crystals and Swarovski Pearls.
