Need advice

Hey everyone any help is always welcome so with that said I am studying to be a photojournalist and work with my paper at my school and wanted to know how to set up a web page to sell or even just share some of my work with others. any pointers would be great thanks.

Hey Ryan, welcome to TPF.

Two things.

1. What do you mean by sell? Sell like Stock photography? or Sell like Print sale?

2. If you want to get community feedback Flickr.com is best place to upload your pics. The moment you upload a pic it is viewable by everyone online and they can put random comments, tags or annotations, very nice place to get feedback from random folks. And they do have some arrangement with Getty where you can sell stock images.

Not sure if that was what you're looking for, but I hope it helps.

Flickr is good for sharing images. There are limits on how many/how big the files can be unless you upgrade from a free account to a "pro" account. There are a lot of sites that allow you to sell your work, but none of them will be free, either.

As a recovering photojournalist myself, welcome!

Just be careful about what you're gonna sell cause you can't sell NT Daily photos.

You can also just set up a blog. If you want to sell an image, use paypal. You can embed the link into the blog posting. That's pretty easy, neat & clean, and free.

Smugmug works great to start with.

Sorry I have been out due to work but thank you all for your suggestions.

Hi Ryan,

You should check out www.wix.com. You can build a website very easily, using drag/drop. They allow you to upload pics. And the best part - it is completely free if you allow their logo to stay on your page. If you want your logo off of their page, there is a small monthly fee.
