FAA & Posting to Google+

June 3, 2013 by owfotografik 0 Comments

‘d like to share what I’ve been doing over on Google+ and I’d be interested to hear what you do there.

At least once a day, often 2 or 3 times during the day I will post a piece from my FAA portfolio. I post a good sized watermarked image for visual impact with a link to that piece on my Artist Website. I try to say something about it. Then I post links to all the daily photography and art themes which that particular image is suitable for. This increases your audience and sometimes the theme page will do a feature widening the audience further.

To find all the daily themes see the link below. All you need to do is copy and paste the string of links and when you post, the links become live.

Automating Twitter – Follows and Replies

Is there a way to set up an automated reply to people who follow you to thank them?

I seem to remember there was something, somewhere in my exploration these past few days but I can’t find it.

Loving Quotes

June 3, 2013 by owfotografik 0 Comments

People love QUOTES!! Make sure you sprinkle those around…I get so many retweets of those…and if you stick a tinyURL at the end with a picture to go with the quote…well….you just might get more interest. 🙂

I am done with huge links that say FAA…that is a turn off…and yes boring…TinyURL is the only way!

Read Your Feeds

June 3, 2013 by owfotografik 1 Comment

Tip for Today:
Go visit your social media sites and look at your feeds. Are they solid FAA link posts or do you have other info in there as well.

Do you feel engaged by your content or are you bored by it. I was really surprised one day after posting a bunch of stuff, to go and read my Twitter feed, and be really turned off by it. Make sure you think about what you are sharing and the message you want to convey when you share online.

Inspirational quotes, photography/painting advice tips/tricks, what interests you personally that you would like to share with the world. What influences your artistic visions, What is your favorite color and why, showcase work in that color……

Social Media followers like to be engaged with you as a person and not just your work 🙂
