I’ve heard some people use ko-fi!

I started using it! Very practical and intuitive to set up. However, my shop is not indexed. If anyone googles my username + ko-fi, they would not find it. It’s not a good option to gain visibility: I don’t see how new people would randomly discover my patterns, unless I advertise them on other platforms.

I have a Kofi and there’s 0 way to search for things so you have to have a link to a shop to find anything. I don’t think it’s worth it. I have 2 followers only and no sales at all

That’s why I prefer ribblr honestly. Kofi requires you do your advertising and promotions. I really have no time for that lol. I do some but I’m not trying to make a business out of this, I’m just doing it as a hobby. I have had one sale on ravelry (4 different patterns at once) but that’s my only sale there. While it does have search options, I don’t find them as useful as ribblr is at advertising your stuff for you
