Generally speaking, you can create two different types of online store, one, your own store using a custom domain and hosting, or using ecommerce platform; and two, you can create your store on third-party ecommerce marketplaces like Amazon, eBay, Etsy, etc. When you are selling from your own store, you are selling from your own brand, however, when you are selling from other ecommerce marketplaces, you are selling under other brands. When you sell from your store, you need to work hard to get your store ranked high and build traffic. When you are selling from other stores all you need to do is tap the existing traffic on the platform. You will have to spend a lot of money to build your store but selling from other ecommerce stores is really cheap. For example, you will have to spend at least $100 to build woocommerce store or $384 for shopify store, but if you want to sell from Amazon you pay just $0.99 per product sold or $39.99 per month if you subscribe to professional plan.
