There are two areas in which artists and craftsmen have different needs from the average business. One has to do with image and the other with economics. I can help you with both.

Your site has to look right and project the personality of your work. Otherwise you wouldn't be satisfied with it. (If you are like me you may never be satisfied for long, but that is a fact of life for the artistic.) You should know that it is very possible for you to design your own web page with the software that is available free of charge. This lets you control the look of the site. There are certain areas, however, that are beyond the scope of many artists and craftsmen, and that is where I caome in. I can help you fine tune your pages and optimize your images so everything works and works quickly.

Most forms of advertising are an ongoing expense. Advertising on the internet is diffferent. The largest expense is in building your site. Everything else is cheap. In fact, it is possible to make yourself and your work known for FREE if you know how. The Internet is the best thing that has happened to the artist since they started putting up oil paint in tubes just before the impressionist era! You can sell your work to the public and have an online portfolio to attract dealers. There are a number of servers that offer space for your site FREE OF CHARGE in return for showing pop-up advertising when people click on to your site. Why, some will even pay you money for ad space on your site, if you want to do it. The only obstacle for most people is they lack the know-how to take full advantage of these opportunities, and don't have the time or inclination to learn how. I can show you how. I can fine tune your site, deliver it to a free server and announce your site to the web. That last is very important, because your web pages are useless if nobody sees them. There are other things you can do to make your site more successful, and I can tell you about them, too.
