How And Where To Promote Your Artwork? New Marketing Ideas!

Each year there are new trends, methods and channels to market your portfolio.

I use pinterest.com and wanelo.com along side with twitter and facebook.

What else would you suggest that you are getting success with?

Thank you.

I am realizing Adam you eventually need to identify your market, know specifically who they are. In the almost year and half I have been on FAA I am now recognizing one of my main markets and need to target my advertising if I want to progress.

there are lots of marketing ideas on here already, i would start with that. you want any place where people will see your work. i'm working on a marketing blog right now, but its really a rehash of everything i've said thus far. as said you need to figure out who your market is. and then after that you will have to find out where those people hang out.

what i'm seeing in your folder are a lot of random looking things a flag counter that's way too huge.

you seem a lot of kick boxing stuff, so i would hang out in those arenas. there isn't any one best place.

Adam, when I looked at your page, like Mike, I felt that the flag counter/live feed was overpowering the bio, etc. Then I clicked Galleries and found about 16 named galleries with logo images, but there were a huge number with names but no images and just the FAA logo. I imagine that this would be very off-putting and confusing to a possible buyer viewing your work. Perhaps you could work on this as well as your new marketing ideas!

wow, yeah, you have a lot of galleries, and nothing in them, and its not marked. and the ones that are marked are PD stuff, ideally its best to stick to your own art, it will be less confusing to a customer.

With all due respect Adam, one thing that's probably best not to do is post suggestions to go view your art in the comment section of other peoples images after sales. You've done that multiple times on my sales recently. I wish you the best of luck with your work, but I don't want other peoples' work promoted on my pages.

Adam,

I dont know what is what. Meaning did you take public domain images and put them up at times?

If you did how are you the artist?

Have you significantly altered those images?
