Blogs are useful in a number of ways. Not only will they be useful in showing off your images, they will have a positive effect on traffic to your website. Search engines love them, there easy to pick up and before long you will have people coming onto your blog directed from search engines.
So how do you go about setting up a blog? There are plenty of places you can go to set up a blog, I personally use Movable Type. Once set up you can start talking to the world. There are a few things to remember to make your blog more effective. First off, update regularly. This will keep a fresh supply of information on your blog and show it is used and updated regularly. Make your submitted information / images appropriate to the type of blog you have. In doing these simple steps your blog is more likely to attract repeat visits.
A good idea for photography blogs is to try and match the images you show to the time of year. For example, in December show images containing snow and ice. Around Halloween show eerie looking images. The point I am trying to make is, be imaginative but at the same time relate your images to the context of time. This makes the blog more appealing, interesting and appropriate.
I have jumped on the bandwagon of blogging myself. I have been trying to put the above into practice. I use the blog to show my photography. The image is displayed followed by a short insight into the image, the location and my personal insight into the photograph. Rather than just having my photography website, I wanted something a bit more personal which could reach people on a different level. Blogging was the perfect solution.
Try it yourself and join the blogging craze!
