Update your websites!!!

Today, I'm updating (or trying to update) all of my sites. I don't have many, but I need to keep 'em current. You do too. Sometimes we don't realize how many potential clients we lose by having an outdated website.  Your latest pics SHOULD be your best work. Meaning, every time you shoot, you should be getting better or more creative. I don't believe in reaching a plateau because there is always another style or genre of photography to delve into.  The more you can add to your arsenal, the better (at least it's that way for me).

I admire more photographers than you could imagine.  We are all artists, and we all have sooo much to offer to the world.  Nobody see things the way YOU see things.  You are unique.  You know what you like.  You know why you took a picture the way you did.  You know why you like a pic that somebody else took.  Why?  Because you're an artist, and you appreciate art. What does this have to do with my topic? I don't know. I have no idea at all.  I think I love my blog. I never really put much thought into them before. You can say whatever you want to say, for whatever reason you have.  It's kind of liberating.

Well, here is what I was looking at for the past couple of hours...



I use Yahoo Sitebuilder for my main site. It's pretty thorough.  I used to have slideshows and all kinds of things on there, but who wants  to wait for a slideshow to download before they can view your pics? (I'm not trashing Flickr's Photostream. I have to update my Flickr page next ;)) If it irritated ME to have to wait to view my own page, I could only imagine how potential clients felt.  Lesson learned.  Back to Flickr, I love it. I love the community. I love the work on there. I love the world of useful  information pertaining to this obsession people call photography.  Well, I'm off to the update race again... TTYL
