Starting an OpenBazaar shop?
Does anyone here currently run an OpenBazaar store? A friend of mine is interested in migrating his clothing shop to OB. I'm wondering how technically savvy I need to be to set up an OB shop. I've seen 3rd party services for hosting OB shops, and I'm wondering how safe these 3rd party hosts are... If anyone out there sells on OB and could give advice, that would be fantastic!
Hi, worthlessartist. You can run your store locally on your computer or you can use third party hosting services. Soon there is going to be new version 2.0, where some things are going to be better and easier for vendors. If you or your friend will have problems with installation you can ask developers and other helpful OB members on https://openbazaar.slack.com/.
Thanks! the slack was very helpful. The shop is up and running! :) https://steemit.com/psychedelics/@worthlessartist/a-friend-of-mine-just-launched-an-openbazaar-apparel-store
Great to hear that, apparently it wasn't so hard to install it.
