Why TravelArtPix – Read This First!
Why TravelArtPix: Dear artists,
TravelArtPix website is our FAA Travel Art group’s blog. If you are not sure WHY you should participate in this, here is a quick list of benefits in simple words:
1. Worldwide Exposure
The MAIN BENEFIT comes from something that many members of FAA groups don’t realize: the discussions in the FAA groups are set-up to be ignored by Search Engines – therefore the posts are practically invisible to the world.
- Not only does this website have full exposure to the public, but it’s optimized to rank well on the SE’s and to attract the targeted market out there (the potential buyers for travel related artwork as prints)
2. Communication
It is true that a picture is worth one thousand words…, but without words that picture, no matter how good it is, will be less likely to be found and sell…
Throughout the history sales have always been driven by words – people like to hear words and related stories, and when it comes to art, talking with the potential buyers is the way to go… Descriptions are good, but stories about our personal approach, motivation and vision are unique and can build a powerful relationship between us and the audience.
3. The Power of the Team
TravelArtPix is like having your own blog, but more powerful. This is because we are a whole community of artists who contribute with our own entries – more content (properly done) more chances for a higher ranking and exposure for ALL of us.
- In case you need, I’ll help you to get started!
You can for sure have your own blog and make a link from it to this group blog, like I did with this page: May Day fair in Seville, Spain .
- FAA offers this tool, but it’s difficult to use – I tried it and gave up
- You can also have your own blog at wordpress.com
** Our team website/blog is on WordPress.org
*** I suggest however that you go and register with a wordpress.com FREE account. You will need this in order to login to this present blog too. Please go ahead and do it; also please set-up your Gravatar!
4. Other marketing tools
a. From this blog we can also link to the Social Media of our choice
b. We will expose our artwork by artist, media and categories and we’ll learn from each other
c. We’ll have themed based galleries and take part in challenges that will bring traffic, etc.
