Embedding Versus Using Banner For Promoting My Faa Galleries, Which One Is Better?

I have embedded my galleries in to ginettefineart.com in hopes to better promote all my FAA art. I wonder if I should use a banner and instead of having people directly through my sire have them go straight to my FAA galleries on FAA. I don't like that when using sharing button it does not detect an image and it shares only the url no matter what images I am on withing the embedded store on my site. I hope that's makes sense. I like to share individual art but it's not possible if Use the full store embed version. Should I use a a banner? Are there any success stories out there from artists that use the full embed store successfully meaning they actually know they get sales from it?

The embedded FAA gallery fits very nicely. I would keep that. Alternately, you could use FAA image links, but that may be more hassle and may not integrate visually as well. I'm not sure which banners you're referring to.

Thanks James

The other option are the FAA Banners and the slide show widgets. Clicking on them takes you to FAA your gallery or individual paintings. I like the embed store, except you can't share individual listings on social media. I wonder if anyone uses the embed store successfully meaning they sell through it. I was hoping some user may share their experience or even have ideas on how to share out of it.

It doesn't look like people can share individual images on social media through the widget, but you still have the share widget for your website that will help get people there. But it looks like the only way to share specific images is to get folks to your AW first.

On my own website (which is not photography oriented) I use a combination of slide show widgets, image links and text links to get people to my AW. You can see what I do at http://www.montereypeninsula.info but what I do may not be applicable to your situation.

Thanks James for your input. I think I will switch over to the widget or post the embed image code each time I list something new and have people go from my website to my FAA site.
I just don't think the embed store is good if it does not allow visitors to share individual images. I can't code so I would not know where to start making it so. Thanks again.
