Handling fee
Storenvy's handling fee is paid by the buyer. It's 5-10% of the order total, and it appears at checkout as a bit of a shock! The only way to turn it off in your custom store is to pay a 6% commission, or upgrade to the most expensive plan.
SEO (Search Engine Optimization) Research
The data in this section can give you an idea of how much of a boost you could get from the marketplace's traffic. There are limitations, however!
Limitations:
Traffic estimation tools underestimate the traffic of niche sites. For smaller niche sites, the real number could be 3-7 times what's listed here.
A marketplace with local focus is also likely to be underestimated, because of niche keywords and the boost from #shoplocal campaigns.
Finally, keep in mind that this tool can't see traffic from marketing - social media, email newsletters, etc, all won't be counted here.
