Hi Rita! I've been working 'every day in every way' to get viewers/buyers to my site since I joined FAA! That's on top of actually creating my art/paintings, taking new photographs, doing ALL the social promotion suggested by those above [and more!]...and having somewhat of a life! There are not enough hours in the day, as my mother used to say!
Re self-promotion & getting visitors/potential buyers to your site...here's some of what I've done so far:
created a fb following; posted Pinterest boards; hosted & entered scads of FAA contests [winning & placing]; commented on & liked/faved other member's work, as well as replied to those doing the same on mine; created a blog; posted topics in the community discussions & participated, too; entered the necessary keywords, plus good image descriptions; and, garnered numerous group features! Whew. And, STILL, I don't have very many views/visitors, at least compared to others. Followers are another thing. There are actually some members with over 5-million views, if you can believe it...as well as many others who sell well with only a few. Go figure. I scratch my head, sometimes.
So, just check out Abbie's links/advice and the other helpful hints shared above. Everybody's situation is different, as is their art/photography and the ability to promote/advertise. Give it time...and then give it MORE time! Patience & persistence are key...at least that's what I keep telling myself. Good luck!
