How to Promote Your Art Online – WetPaint Wiki Project
Promoting visual fine arts online is never easy, especially in these days…
I am a true believer that together the artists can make a difference and help each other without generating any conflicts of interests.
So I decided to launch a community website (based on the wiki technology of WetPaint platform) to give artists the tool to share their knowledge and experience. The idea is the following: each and every page can be updated by all participants in order to achieve excellence.
These are the options:
So far I created the following pages (of course the users will be able to add more):
-Main Page
- Promotion Tools
- Own website
- Blogs
- Artists’ communities
- Forums
The idea of this website is the following:
To bring artists together and to share their knowledge in promoting art online.
The website is based on the Wiki Technology.
According to Wikipedia (noticed the name?) – Awikiis a page or collection of Web pagesdesigned to enable anyone who accesses it to contribute or modify content, using a simplified markup language. Wikis are often used to create collaborative websites and to power community websites.
So this is about collaboration.
While editing this website, you can do the following:
- Create your own content
- Add information to existing pages
- Share your knowledge and experience with fellow artists
- Create Albums and Publish your own images of your artwork
- Add Links to Your own websites or other references
So How It Works for You? Here is what you have to do:
- Join This Website
- Contribute – Share your Knowledge
I created a few pages, and each of them is dedicated to a certain category of art promotion online, for example:
- Selling Online
- eBay
- Etsy
- ….
- Community Websites
- TagFoot
- …
- etc…
Good luck!
