    I am in the process of creating a Photography Directory.

    I have created some categories but not sure where to place a sub-category for "Stock Photography".

    Does that need to be placed under:

    Shopping >> Stock Photography

    And what about Royalty Free images.

    Should I need to have two sub-categories one for paid one [Stock Photography (Paid)] & one for royalty free [Stock Photography(Royalty Free)]?

    Appreciate your help.

    Perhaps showing us a list of your main categories or the URL to your directory will help.

    Seems odd to me to have one of what is probably one of the highest searched for terms in your niche (stock photography) would be used as a subcategory. You may want to rethink that a bit.

    Thanks for your suggestions. I guess I could have "Stock Photography" as a main category itself.
    BTW the site url is:
    photos101[.]net

    Another suggestion....

    As a rule I'm not a fan of a shopping category. It has even less meaning in a niche directory. Why not "Photography Equipment", "Equipment & Supplies", or something similar? Much better for keywords and much more logical for site visitors.

    I doubt anyone's ever searched on Google for "Shopping Film" or "shopping developer.
