thank you SO much. I’ve recently started a blog and I was getting a little discouraged about not getting a lot of traffic. Your post really helped me regain focus and realize it will come with time. Thanks again!

Hi Nasim,

Thanks for sharing this wonderful tips. For a professional photographer, I think its best not to use the free blogging platforms like blogger and tumblr, because there is a limit on layout and creativity.

I must say this is a handy help for me, I’m sharing it straightaway with my twitter followers; its going to be a resource page for my readers as some of them have been asking me the question on how they can start such blog.

Thanks for sharing.

I think I might be a bit late here, but I can also recommend one.com as host (for europeans atleast). Easily configured with wordpress CMS, have decent speed and is cheap.

Hi Nasim,
Thank you so much for this information and the time you have spent putting it all down. You have given me the confidence to set up my own blog. I have just done my first ever portrait sitting so am looking forward to getting my name out there:)
