Selling Stock Photography
It seems every photographer on the planet must have a website these days. It’s no surprise really as it’s almost as if the internet was designed just for us.
It’s an ideal platform for sharing our work with family & friends. For the professionals it’s even more useful. It’s the perfect medium to show samples to Clients, deliver high res images and even accept payments.
We can backup our images ‘off site’, interact with our peers, find new buyers and a whole lot more. In fact, as a group, professional photographers were among the first to really embrace the whole internet idea.
Unfortunately though, it’s proved a little too popular and nowadays the biggest problem for most online photographers is working out how to stand out from the crowd.
Last time I checked there were more than 67 million hits for ‘photographer’ in Google, another 212 million for ‘photography’, and a lazy 36 million for ‘photography website’.
So how do you go about getting found in that sort of crowd?

Sorry for being off topic, but I am just starting my website/blog. Why did you choose Wordpress over blogger or any other blog program? I am trying to figure out the best way, since I am not a techy.
I just think WordPress is ‘easy’ but still with enough bells and whistles to make a slick website with a lot of useful functions. This one was basically built and promoted off the step-by-step system outlined in Ewen Chia’s 24 Hour Business Plan … free ebook there if you’re interested … and literally took a couple of hours to set up and a couple of hours after that to get it listed in some of the search engines and start a bit of visitor traffic. Hope this helps.
I found your site via yahoo thanks for the post. I will save it for future reference. Thanks
