Websites for Artists. Why are they important?
There is no more extended barrier between the artist and the world. If you have an online presence - and your work can be found, shared, ”pinned” or “liked” - you can achieve a level of recognition, once only dreamed of.
A single image or blog post can receive thousands of views in a very short time-frame; be seen by vast numbers of prospective clients, admirers, and fans.
If you are an artist, photographer, writer, or any other creative entrepreneur, you need to harvest the power of the internet by having an online presence. You need your website!
There are many great social sites where sharing content is encouraged. Being a member of community-based sites can be a great idea. These may help promote your work, meet others with similar interests, gain feedback, and perhaps occasional sales, as a part of your online strategy. You can use it as a marketing outpost to drive traffic to your website, not as a substitute for it.
