I've been working on my Google+ page for a while now and have found that hands down, it's a better venue for promoting my photography than Facebook.   At first glance one might think that they are pretty much the same type of social network, but I'm finding more and more that Google plus has more features, better security, and maybe most importantly..   the community seems very "vibrant"!

I recently attended a very interesting webinar on how to better negotiate with your photography clients.  It discussed how to speak with the client, what questions to ask and a lot of good advice on controlling the conversions for the best prices and terms.  I’ve organized this overview into the basic main topics that were covered. I think you’ll still find some really good information.  This is not so much an article as my personal notes I took while listening, but I’m sure they can be quite useful for you as well.

There are many websites available where you can sell your photography and artwork.  All come standard with a personal page where you can simply upload your images and begin sales, while a few give you a custom store of your own.  Some of these store fronts provide options for selling various products and merchandise with your imagery on it, while others are focused solely on selling prints and canvases.  Some take a large piece of your profit and others do not.  The list of options, pros and cons is long, so which of these Store Fronts are the best for you? I've tried them all.  Weeded out the junk sites and found the top players.  Here is my take on each.
