Morning Lori, I too follow you from FASO site. The marketing and profiling of one's online presence is foremost in my mind (primarily due to the holiday season). It's always been a mystery to me as to how does one present themselves without getting lost in the numerous art sites. Yes we all hope that our work stands out from the crowd and ultimately its the body of work that generates the interest. But these days often wonder what is it that the "client" latches on to and makes them start "following" the artists' work? The "sold" work or most popular work tag promotes spontaneous quick sale but is that all we want for the time being? Aside from the gallery (online) presence in developing your blogs do you put for content. Suppose the question here is how personalized do you blog. Do you layout the full presentation from start to finish or post the work with storytelling. Realize that one can't canvas all folks interest in one shot; but how do you keep the artwork and blog "different and fresh" with the key factor return.
