Hello, Sorry if this is the wrong place for this.

I am looking to start an online store for some art projects/crafts/stickers mostly as a creative outlet for some of my current frustrations.

Since some kinds of people take art way too personally, I want to take precautions from doxxing or being harassed.

What are some best practices for an online shop? Are there any recommended storefronts or something like that? I’m sure there’s a lot of things I’m not even considering.

Any help would be much appreciated, Thanks

    Whatever you do don’t get a domain name (website) and register it with your name and other info they want like email, phone nunber and address. Anyone could whois you and find out all that information in literally 1 second by just typing in your website and it’s usually public data unless you request and pay extra for them to hide your info

      Most domain registrars make whois info private by default these days. It’s typically just a toggle. Same with DNSSEC
