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.

While editing this website, you can do the following:

So How It Works for You? Here is what you have to do:

  1. Join This Website
  2. 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
    • FaceBook
    • TagFoot
  • etc…

Good luck!
