I recently started using a photography forum called Photo Forum. I find that the forum is a good tool to use. You can get advice on things such as photo editing, photo composition, photography locations, studio set-ups, website help, and more. I forums are useful for other reasons too, as mentioned in my previous post you can get more views on things by posting about new uploads. Forums are one of the most useful tools on the internet, so try to register and begin posting.  
Tip: Try to register and use more than one forum as it will get your photographs more exposure, and more traffic to your website.*


Here is a list of photography forums:

  1. Digital Photography School
  2. The Photo Forum
  3. DPreview Forums
  4. Photography on the Net
  5. Photography.ca Forums


Comment down below with which forum you find to be the best.

*This is not a garuntee, even if you post about your website/uploads it doesn't mean that people will look at your post. Also, very many people post on the new website sections of forums and many posts are ignored.
 

How do you get more views on Flickr?

Many people wonder how to get more views on their photos. Getting the amount of views you want on your photos is not difficult. Here are some easy tips for you:
Picture
Flickr is one of the most popular websites for photosharing.
1. Add your photographs to groups.
After uploading your photographs, search for groups that relate to your photograph, and post it there. The key is to get your photo in as many groups as possible. When added to a group, a photo then has the potential to be viewed by many of the members of that group. Try to find groups with lots of members, and groups with recent uploads and discussions.

2. Add contacts.
When you add contacts, people see that you have added them and then they have the option to add you back. When you add them, usually they will check out your profile, and your photostream. Also, if they add you back, your images then are displayed to them immediately after upload. Try to get as many contacts as possible. Also, try to get people to add you back.

3. Comment
When you comment on a photo, the person who took the photo has the option to reply, this makes you more visible to other Flickr users. Try to comment as much as possible, but make sure to be positive.

4. Post on Forums
There are many different photography forums available  and are used by many people. Generally, there are sections within the forums for new photographs. Try to post every time you upload, then the people who view your work may follow the link to your photostream.

Extra Tip: The forums usually have extra space for people to talk about their new websites, this can help by getting traffic, and getting tips from other people on your website design.

5. Have Good Photographs
This may seem like an odd tip, but it really does help. People enjoy looking at quality work, therefore they are more likely to view your pictures if they are good. Try to upload only your top quality work.

Extra Tip: Try to shoot as often as possible so that you can have more quality pictures to work with.

Try to use all of these tips, and hopefully your photographs will begin to get more views!
