There are more and more fans of photography. Whether with the mobile camera, which is offering better quality every time, or with a professional camera, any opportunity to go out into the street, or into the countryside, to take a few shots is always welcome. The problem is that the photos, in general, after passing them to the computer, and retouching them, tend to be forgotten. And it is that, if we have a good web page set up, we can not only share them with others, but also even do business with them.
There are many ways to share our photos on the net. Social networks are usually one of the most used, but at the same time less recommended, since these captures are available to everyone, and, in addition, the quality of these photos is usually very poor. Another option is on web pages for buying and selling photos, with which we can reach a lot of people, but with which the profits from the photos are minimal, since they keep huge commissions.
The best thing is to set up our own website to share photos online. And, although there are many options for it, we are going to give you 6 reasons to do it with wordpress.
Great customization options. With WordPress we will have full control over the appearance of our website. And not only because we can create it however we want, but also because of the large number of themes that we can find, many of them free, so we can choose the one that we like best and best suits our needs.
Accessories of all kinds. In addition to the themes, WordPress also has a wide variety of plugins that we can install to provide the page with extra functions. For example, with a couple of clicks we can install a button to share our publications on social networks, or a commerce plugin for those who want to buy our photos.
Very simple posts. As a CMS, WordPress has a very simple editor from which anyone can create and publish their new posts. In addition, we can also easily create categories, and all kinds of content to organize our publications, without needing to know anything about programming.
Great SEO tools. If we want to appear in Google, it is necessary to have a good SEO. This CMS has excellent tools to refine SEO and be able to position ourselves correctly in Google in order to attract the largest number of clients possible.
Constant updates. The danger of setting up a website is that a vulnerability appears that can put our data at risk. WordPress has a large community, and a large number of developers, who are constantly working not only to introduce improvements and new features, but also to strengthen security. In this way, if we always have it updated, we can be sure that our website and our data are protected.
It’s free. Of course, we can’t forget that WordPress is totally free either. We can download it and install it on our own server without having to pay anything, or we can choose a server in the cloud, which can be free (offered by WordPress.com itself), or a paid one, more powerful and on which we will have more control.
