Title: My portfolio website open
Post by: mjp on November 06, 2007, 03:44
Hi,

Can I ask for your comments and critique about my new web-site (beta stage at the moment).

The site URLs are www.mjp-photographs.fi and www.mjp-photographs.com .

If you have suggestion or problems connecting or viewing the site please let me know. The server is located in Atlanta/US so it should be fast for US users, but if you use it somewhere else please comment about the connection speed. The site is designed to be a portfolio site,  referral site and blog about my future work on food and still life areas(photography and cooking).

best regards:Mikko Pitkänen / MJP-Photographs

Very nice photography Mjp.  And a nice portfolio section on your site.

But for my taste there are too many Google Ads.

Do you want to sell your photography or something else?  If you want to promote and sell your photography, the viewers eye has to be focussed on what you want to sell, not on loads of Google Ads cluttering up the site.

Just my opinion.

Hi,

Thanks for the comments.

The site is under "construction/beta" status and this was the first version, it will evolve. I will include google ads there in future too, but try to minimize their presence much as possible. And I try to get more real content online soon (more images, more textual content).

My focus will be to build nice portfolio and have nice discussion going on in the blog so I can learn new stuff and maybe others too :).
