How we write these guides
Vendor pages first
Prices, limits and fees come from each company's own pricing and help pages, with the month we checked them.
No made-up results
No invented income screenshots, testimonials or "we tested 47 tools" claims. If we haven't done something, we don't pretend to have.
Fees in full
We include transaction and payment processing fees, not just the monthly price, because that's where small sellers lose money.
Commissions disclosed
Some links earn us a commission. We say so on every article, and we'll tell you when a free option is the better choice.
