Lead-Guitarist.jpg | Stock and Editorial Photography by Neil Juggins

How delighted I was, to be selected by Photoshelter, to be one of their photographers of the month in November.
Having this image on their homepage has increased my exposure and it has been viewed worldwide.
The website is now getting many hits but is taking time to get the content correct.
Still its been an interesting start and I was very proud to have my image selected from submissions by up to 17,000 photographers.

Well after much thought I've decided to join Photoshelter. I can store my archive, publish a website, sell my images to clients directly and many other features. Photoshelter have been around for a few years and seem like the best place to store my pictures. Collecting multiple hard drives is a bit dull !

Over the next few weeks I'll tell you of my experiences and see if it is proving to be a worthwhile experience.

My initial thoughts are that this is a progressive and innovative company. Their user interface is easy to use and after uploading a few pictures, I'd created a website within minutes. Obviously fine tuning the website and sales features are going to take a lot longer but so far I'm impressed.
They are very keen to push search engine optimization ( SEO ) and this is helped by blogging, hence the new blog posts ! I've published one gallery here at blogger and I'll explore some of their other features soon.
