    How can I sell my photographs online?

    I enjoy taking pictures and it would be great if I could sell these online for a bit of income.

    Nothing's better than making money doing the things you love! :eek:

    So any suggestions?

    There are many sites where you can do that. Fotolia, iStockPhoto, Stockxpert, etc. Good luck.

    This depends on a range of factors such as, what sort of photography. EG: stock, nature, abstracts, etc.

    Typically, unless selling stock photography, I suggest throwing up a shopping cart and do it yourself. This of course entails a bit of work but with proper guidance you can pull it off ;)

    hope that helps,
    that is sorta what I do if you want to pm I can likely help but I try not to publicly let all my cats out of their respective bags :)

    There are a lot of sites that allow it like the ones mentioned above.
    Make sure to protect it so others can't steal it.

    Decide who your target market will be. In other words - who would most likely benefit the most from your photos.

    In this process, you will then develop a marketing plan.

    Since you have a skill and I'm going to assume you are very proficient at photography - your main goal is marketing.

    That is - getting your service into the hands of those who can best use your service.
