Well I’ve only gone and done it
After spending many hours watching Photo related videos on Youtube and sitting through hundreds of videos sponsored by Squarespace I have finally taken the plunge and created my own website.
I have to say, although I have created a couple of sites in the past (both of which were for doomed business ventures) I have found the service Squarespace offers very simple to use, and their customer support was great.
The fact this site is only about putting my meager efforts out there and not about trying to make money, has made the building of it and the editing of my photos to put on it very enjoyable.
I have not built this site in the spirit of ‘Look what a brilliant photographer I am’ because I’m not, I’m an OK photographer who has been to some beautiful places in order to take photos, and hope that some other people might be interested in seeing them too.
I’m already a user of Instagram to display some of my work, and will be exploiting that and any other free social media tools in order to hopefully drive a few interested people to this site.
Oh well, I’ll give it a year and see how it goes, cheers
