General Plan for Photos Site

It’s time I finally made progress on my fine art photos site.

Today, I reviewed it and tried to see if there were any search results for the one photo I have uploaded to this point.

I was disappointed to find that I’m an idiot and had been discouraging search engines from indexing it all this time. Great.

So I fixed that and got Google Analytics 4 added, so I’ll be able to track it better and get some traffic to it.

I’m not really pleased with how it looks and, at some point, I think I’ll need to fix that.

However, there’s really no point if it’s not getting traffic yet.

So here’s a general outline of what I’d like to do with it in the coming future:

  • Start uploading my best photos with an emphasis on going deep with each one, optimizing the page, content, and description
  • Develop a regular schedule of uploading – perhaps one photo each day
  • Put together a schedule for developing content on the home page and an “About” page
  • Develop a strategy for occasional blog posts and articles discussing my photography
  • Figure out a strategy to get some backlinks

Once I feel like all of these things are in line, I’d like to simply wait and see if I start getting search engine traffic. Based on that traffic, I can decide how to start proceeding.

Without search engine traffic, the plan doesn’t work. I need it in order to actually make sales and have my plan work.

Let’s do it.

  1. I’m finally starting to rank! I’ve been keeping up with this (though not nearly as fast as I had hoped) and it is starting to show signs of success.
