A purchase page, not just a list of links
Aksara's public store puts live products near the top, then gives buyers previews, included files, a license summary, refund policy, seller identity, and a support path. The link is still shareable everywhere, but the product has room to earn trust.
Questions
Can I keep my bio and social links?

Do buyers need an Aksara account?
