How to Draw Attention to your Photo Masterpieces

There is no shortage of digital platforms where photographers can get exposure. But what if you are looking for more? What if you dream of becoming a professional photographer?

One of the best ways to draw attention to your work is to write photography reviews on established websites. Product reviews are always popular, but you will want to branch off into writing about the art of making good photographs - and illustrate your articles or blog post with your own works.

The next step would be to build your own website and to attract visitors to it.

Before you start investing time (and perhaps money) into the attracting part, make sure that your visitors will have a good experience. Your site needs to be simple and easy to navigate, with clear and easy to find contact details. If your site is too complex or if it takes too long to open, your visitors will quickly lose interest and go elsewhere.

It is also vitally important to optimise your site for mobile traffic and to post new work regularly. You don’t want to bore repeat visitors with same old, same old!

Make it easy for visitors to your website to share the photographs they like. Since word of mouth is one of the most powerful advertising tools, some photographers reward their visitors with print credits for referrals to friends.

Don’t forget to be generous to your fellow photographers either. Share their photographs on your website; they are likely to reciprocate, and very soon you will have built a strong network of professionals ready to help each other.
