Finally I have my new website live! You can visit it by clicking on the photo above or at renetimmermans.com.
The new site is completely integrated with Photoshelter, where I have now hosted my webshop. It has been a couple of weeks work, but I am happy with the result and I hope you will enjoy it as well when you visit. You are more than welcome to leave comments here with your opinion.
Photoshelter has some great tools to help building and modifying your site. I have used one of their templates and further modified this with their manual customization tools. In addition they support on various fronts to get “their” photographers known out in the world, e.g. web-seminars, blogging advice, featuring photographers, etc.
If you are a serious amateur or professional photographer you should definitely check out their site and see what they can do for you to help move your business forward.
One major lesson I have learned while working with the new site: Tag your photos with keywords immediately when you import them on your computer! In most cases I had not done that and while uploading and making them searchable on Photoshelter I had to spent several days to just tag my photos with keywords having to dig into my old notes and travel guide books to find the right wording and names. And yet I am not done, there is more tagging to do…
