How do I get business for my online jewelry store?
*I am not meaning to promote my business, I just really need help with opinions on why I am not selling anything and how to get myself business. My aim is not to gain business off of askers, just their opinions on improving.

My website is http://www.FashionsByGabrielle.com
I opened it in may 2012 I have made a FEW sales but I would at least like a sale a week.
I have put A LOT of time and effort into it and I don't know why I don't have a greater outcome.
I need help building a customer base and continual customers. I put so much into building up the website and I am pretty proud of the outcome.
I even made a facebook - https://www.facebook.com/fashionsbygabrielle
a twitter- https://twitter.com/fashbygabrielle
also a tumblr, instagram, and a mailing list
recently I even have been running ads, on google, facebook, and i might even try bing
with only an outcome of 2 facebook likes =[

i dont understand what i am doing wrong

why wont people buy from ? or even gain interest

PLEASE ANY OPINION IS GOOD
like if you like or dislike anything?
and why would you or wouldn't you buy?
how could i make people gain interest? how to make people want to buy ?
* I am not asking anyone to buy, I mean buy if you like but I am not asking this to get someone to buy

THANK YOU EVERYONE <3
THANK YOU SO MUCH ASHLEY I REALLY LIKE THE IDEA OF ENGAGING PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR THINGS!

Why are there no pictures of the merchandise on your Facebook page? Start there. Give people a reason to go to the website. Also, make sure you are using the Facebook and twitter accounts to engage your customers. The jewelry I sell has a Steampunk theme to it, so if I haven't made anything in a while I try to post a picture of something Steampunky, and ask people what they think of it. Keeps people looking at my page and interested. I don't spam though.

Secondly, your photos aren't very good. Very nearly all of them are blurry, or badly lit. Practice taking pictures with your elbows braced on something, and in natural lighting. You can accomplish the look of natural lighting even with lamps by reflecting light back onto the subject with a piece of white styrofoam or any sturdy piece of clean white cardboard.

Here's some examples of well lit non blurry jewelry

Those are my tips anyway.
