In this video I'm going to share with you all 10 print-on-demand sites that I'm using currently.
Let's go!!
Thanks for joining me on this video. My name is Juna with Detour Shirts. I've been designing and
selling t-shirts online since 2005 and i've been on a lot of print on demand sites and currently
i'm on 10 of them and i wanted to share with you all 10 that i'm on i'm going to share with you how
many sales i made in february for each of these it may surprise you that not all of these are
doing really well especially for me some of these may do well for you and some of these may do well
for me and that's why i wanted to share it with you because i'm not doing well on everything and
i wanted to kind of be transparent on that and i wanted to share with you the different sites that
you could do some of them might actually work better for you than it works for me
and that's fine they may be a better fit for you for your style and what you're doing
so that's totally cool i'm gonna start with the print on demand sites to do the worst for me
and then end with the ones that do the best for me so we're going to go in reverse order and then
i'll show you all 10 together and kind of put it together so i wanted to do this not to brag but to
show you that i'm not doing great on everything it's just a few things that i'm doing well on
and you'll see it in this video so so let's take a look at number 10 right now so the worst print on
demand site for me i'm not saying it's the worst print on demand side but for me personally the one
that's bringing in the least amount of sales is teespring so teespring.com i know a lot of people
use it and make some money on it for me it's not working and mainly because on my site this is my
detour shirt site on teespring i only have like 18 designs so um i say this all the time for people
are on redbubble if you only have like 20 designs you're not going to make any sales and that's true
for teespring as well and teespring's a little harder you have to get some sales to actually be
on their marketplace so you have to drive traffic and i'm not driving traffic at all to teespring um
which is no wonder i'm not getting any sales and when i say no sales i mean zero sales for february
2028. this is the analytics for teespring and you can see zero sales and the only place that you
can actually get my teespring sales i don't send out anything but it's below my youtube channel so
not a lot of people click on merch on my youtube channel and which is why i'm not
getting a lot of sales so for me um this is the lowest one for me i could probably pump it up and
if i spent some time and put 100 designs on here i may get some sales but for right now
i don't want to do that because i'm busy doing other things besides uploading to teespring so
this one right now this is my number 10 and that is teespring
pot shop number nine for me is spreadshirt spreadshirt.com you can see here i actually
uploaded to spreadshirt a long time ago when i first started out back in 2005 through 2007 i was
uploading to spreadshirt as well but i haven't uploaded to spreadshirt in a long long time
so i just kind of let it ride if you see here i actually my next payout is a negative i don't have
any sales in the last 30 days but if i go to like 2001 i have made sales before so this is a little
better than teespring because i have made sales in the past just not in february so i haven't made
any in february and you can see um i have about 168 designs on here but again i've uploaded those
168 designs a long long time ago like i think the last time i uploaded was before 2010 so
these this shop has just been riding it has been paying very passively but not doing really well
for me currently so my pod shop number eight that i have designs on is society6 so you can go to
society6.com and you can see really cool stuff here i have a shop here but i only have three
designs so i put my corgi eating ramen here and some other designs i only have three designs on
here but i did get a sale in february so you can see right here so i haven't added a lot of designs
on here obviously and the last time i added that was in the beginning so this this one is totally
passive income i really need to add more designs here but just with the lack of time i haven't
added more but but this one i'm ranking as number eight because i actually got a sale for this
in february and with only three designs up so this could be a good one if i put more time into it
so print on demand shop number seven for me is design by human so you can
see design by humans.com this is my shop on design by humans you can see right there
i put a bunch on here i haven't added to this one in a long time as well so i'm kind of letting
this one ride i have a hundred designs on here by design by humans and in february i got zero sales
as well but i have made a lot of sales in the past for this and that's why it's ranking higher for me
so you can see if i did this for the full year i i've had a lot more sales on this than
society6 and some of the other ones that we showed before so this is why i made
this number seven i do get sales sometimes but in february i didn't make any sales
so print on demand shop number six at least for me is zazzle right here zazzle.com i'm on zazzle
this is one of the shops that i started back when i did cafe press back in 2005 so i haven't added a
lot of designs to it lately in fact this is one of those that i just let it ride and totally getting
passive income on it you can see my shop here on zazzle detour shirts i've added a few things but
i haven't added to this in a long long time in fact i can't remember the last time i've added
to zazzle and it shows because i've only got six sales in february from zazzle and i have about 867
designs on zazzle again i added a bulk of those uh probably all of those back in 2005 to 2010
and i haven't added to it a lot lately so six sales passively um not great but it's nice that
there's still some sales coming in at all so print on demand shop number five for me the fifth best
shop for me is threadless so threadless is doing really well for me uh pretty well for
me and it's a really well for me but what i do is the threadless artist shop so you can go here
threadless.com artist shops i already have one you can see right here if you do threadless i think
this is a great way to do it and if you're lucky enough you can get one of your stuff in store
so that's how i got this corgi design right here into box lunch at the mall was through threadless
so pretty cool if you want to do that this is my artist shop right here you can see i have a bunch
of stuff i have about 89 different designs on threadless and still growing uh the last time i
added two threads was probably a couple months ago i'm trying to get more and more on there i've made
16 sales in february with threadless so not too bad i mean it's not the best thing but 16 sales is
still 16 sales so this is my number five for print on demand and that is threadless artist shops my
print on demand shop number four for me right now is cafe press now cafe press was my number one
selling shop before merch by amazon this is the one i started in 2005 and i did so much work on
it i added actually over 2 000 designs so there's like 2 164 designs on cafe press but i haven't
uploaded to cafe press in a long long time as well and i only got about 17 sales in february from
cafe press totally passive i haven't been on it at all these are they don't actually have a site um
shop site you have to make your own shop site with a url most of my sales come from the
marketplace but here are a couple of my shops that i had before this one was called detour
designables before detour shirts and this old detour shirts logo which i haven't changed here
i sold on detourdesignables.com as well as tvts and some other places where there were
a lot of tv shows like lost and fringe and things that you could do with cafe press so i made
a whole bunch of tv shirts that were um okay to do on cafe press because they had the rights to
it and so i did did these two so cafe press still is something that comes in it's not nearly uh
it's only my number four site right now so it's it's not nearly as much as it used to bring in and
that's because i haven't been adding to it so all these print on demand sites this is what happens
if you just let it go you can make passive income but slowly and slowly it's going to start going
down and down i used to make hundreds of sales on cafe press a month and now i'm only making 16.
so my third best going into the top three now my third best print on demand side for me is red
bubble so red bubble you've seen my designs before my shop this is my shop on redbubble i only have
about a thousand sixteen designs so you can see right there i haven't added much lately in fact
uh since i've been pushing really hard on youtube i haven't added much to redbubble lately and
it shows so i only got 100 sales 103 sales uh in february from redbubble i bet a lot of you
probably have more than that so you can see it i'm not doing that great on redbubble it
is my number three but my number one is really big so i'll share that later but
um redbubble is pretty good throughout the year like most print-on-demand sites i make a lot more
in q4 than i do the rest of the year so i like having redbubble here again i probably
would make more if i studied redbubble and added more designs geared towards redbubble
to get more sales so my print on demand site number two the one that brings me the second most
is t public so t public right here you can go teepublic.com it's a lot like redbubble in fact
redbubble bought tea public and so they're both owned by the same company now and i do pretty
well on t public here i only have 674 designs but they're doing a little bit better than redbubble
is i think i match the audience better at t public than i do on redbubble because redbubble kind of
is geared more toward artsy kind of stuff and a lot of my stuff is more merged by amazon kind of
designs which i think fit better at t public so if you're doing really well on merch by amazon
i think you could do really well on t public as well i sold about 120 designs in february for t
public so just a little bit more than i did for redbubble in february and typically it does just
a little bit better there they're kind of neck and neck but i put t public at number two just because
it has less designs and it arm is still making more sales so not surprising you probably guessed
this already my number one print on demand shop for me is merch by amazon so merch by amazon is on
amazon the biggest shopping website in the united states and probably a lot of other places but you
can see here this is a great place to be on if you're not on merch by amazon i would suggest to
try and get on there you may take multiple times to get on there i've been on merch by amazon since
2017 and this is where most of my focus if not all my focus for print on demand is at right now
and that's just because it's a monster you can make so much money on here and so many sales
so this is my merch by amazon page you can see amazon.com these two are shirts i have a actual
page on here when you're in a high enough tier and you can do amazon advertising they'll give you a
link to do your own site with your own name right here and so i have that but you could also check
on amazon if you clicked on my site my detour shirt stuff you can see them right here as well
this is my merch by amazon dashboard page and you can see i have over 10 000 live designs right here
and i've sold over 1912 designs uh in february so this was last month in february so by far not even
close even if you added up all of the ones before it from 10 to 2 it doesn't even come close to to
merge by amazon and so this is why i put a lot all my focus on merch by amazon because those this
can bring in a lot more so that's my number one print on demand sites i'll show you again what
all 10 are right here so here's a list of all 10 that i shared today in my video you can see
this february is a hard month to sell so these are not a typical month it's probably one of
the slower months during the year but you can see i don't always do the best on all of these
it's nice to put it on all of these if you have the time i think you can see if these had more
designs they probably would sell more so you can see kind of the ratio that this one i'm putting
a lot of time into and of course that's making a lot of time but it's also one of the best sites to
sell on because of organic traffic so you got to think about that does it match what you're doing
can you put a lot of designs on it and you can see you can still make some money passively like
cafe press and zazzle which i did a long time ago and i haven't been adding to it and you can still
get some sales passively but they're gonna start dropping off and not making sales so so if you do
have limited time you have to pick you know your top three and figure out what those are and kind
of more push towards those and maybe let the other ones slide just for a little bit so that's my plan
anyway so that is it for this video hopefully this video is really helpful for you to show you like
all the different kinds of print-on-demand sites that you could do i would check all of them out
see which ones are best for you just because i'm not doing well on some of them doesn't mean that
you can't do well on a maybe your design style is a little bit different and you can figure it out
a lot of people do well on redbubble and not do well on t public and vice versa don't do
well on merch by amazon but do really well on redbubble and things like that so you gotta find
which one works for you and then what i would suggest and what i'm doing is push all your
energy on the ones that are doing the best for you and kind of let the other ones slide
just a little bit less so that's working for me anyway if this video was really helpful for you
make sure to give it a thumbs up and if you're not subscribed to this channel already make sure
to hit that subscribe button right there uh the question of the day for this video is are there
any other print on demand sites that you're using let me know that in the comments and which ones
are doing the best for you maybe merch by amazon's not doing the best for you maybe redbubble or t
public is doing the best for you leave that in the comments as well thanks so much for watching again
