Creating a Website to Promote Your Photography


Photography is an incredibly popular art form in the present arts market. People find it easier to relate to photography in a way that they don’t always with fine art. The beauty of capturing a moment, the vibrancy of the colours and the subtlety of the light and shade all captivate the viewer.

Many people looking for photographic pieces or services turn to the Internet to help them find a good contact. Even if they have heard of your name, or have been given a recommendation they are likely to give up the search if you do not have an online presence.

A website doesn’t have to be over-complicated. ‘A picture is worth a thousand words’. If you present your work in a simple but stylish way, you are guaranteed to attract interest from potential clients and buyers.

Most clients who come to your site will be looking for examples of work, a little information about the photographer to add credibility, the services you offer and, of course, how to contact you. Traditionally even getting this simple information presented nicely on the web was difficult without engaging a designer or web developer. But there are alternatives!

If you are looking for an attractive but simple site that you can edit and maintain, then an easy to use online website builder is exactly what you are looking for. Quite simply, you select a design from thousands of pre-made templates, edit it to contain all your information then upload to the web!

Great-looking galleries come as standard so that you can showcase your work to its full potential and really make a good impression on your prospective clients. There are even simple to use video players that could allow you to show a short interview or video of you at work!
