Writing tons of articles and shooting interesting videos and then posting them to high traffic websites such as YouTube and EzineArticles can generate good traffic to your website. Selling art on the web is becoming an increasingly popular way to get your name out there and sell more art than you would just at shows and galleries alone. But to honest, the majority of your work will still be sold at shoes and in person, face to face with your customer.
This means that your advertising of your art needs to stay somewhat local, even on the web. How can you narrow down the visitors searching the web to ones just in your area? Tagging with local terms can help. Tags are extra keywords that search engines use to try and further narrow down the info on the web to a specific topic that their searcher is looking for. Most people misuse tags by making them too general such as: "artwork", "paintings" and "Handmade jewelry." These are good general keywords that you can use for a website, however using city or regional place names can help attract locals to your site.
Tagging is available for most web services like blogs, YouTube videos, articles and Facebook or Flickr photos. Putting the town you live in will let the search engine find searchers in that town as well. These could be instant customers! So include tags like: "Watercolors San Francisco", or "Handmade earrings Miami." New search engines such as Bing are making an effort to look specifically for city place names in tags to help promote local search. Chiropractors, restaurants and doctors use local search all of the time because their patients can't live three states away. But artists forget to properly use local tagging. Learn the secrets to tagging so you not only rise in the search results, but your visitors will be far more targeted to you!
