Print on Demand Forum / Re: Selling on Fine Art America
« on: March 29, 2024, 16:56 »

I've done best when I was active on social media and was part of a group similar to what Steve describes cross-promoting with other artists there, mostly on twitter. I haven't been very active on social media nor on FAA groups the past few years and sales have slowed a bit, but they are still strong even without my doing anything. I expect them to do even better if I can find the time to get back into social media again later this year when I'm less busy. But I've been on there since 2010, and I assume my repeat sellers get a boost in searches. If you're new, you'll need to do some promoting on your own I'd assume.


Yap, and as most of their traffic comes from google promotion that includes backlinks is also a way to try but for people that would like to start today heavy promotion is the only way it might work

For someone who is just starting it is going to be near impossible to reach decent spots in the search engine on any term that is likely to get sales. Shooting at low competition keywords might be the way but prints don't sell as nearly as stock photos so you might to wait for years for a sale even with larger portfolios. If you take a look at recent sales you might get the idea what sells there...florals, famous portraits, movie posters and a lot of thing from the...lets call it the gray space concerning trademarks.

It literally for people with huge portfolios shooting in the dark or people that build themself as a brand and bring their own traffic and than sales push those artworks higher in the search engine, which btw rarely changes and highly favorites images by SALES. No fresh stuff, no chance for new stuff etc.

Free tip...first 10 keywords carry way more weight but its literally build with stuff that sold more so if you want to push out the current images you must beat their sales...and good luck with that.

Look at the moron praising Orban, Ukraine's biggest enemy in Europe, the same way he is praising putin ("we're getting along fine, we're getting along very well"):

I saw it, I read it. But I havent reacted to Trumps words for a long time. If Trump hadn't been president before, I would have thought he was an idiot. But he performed quite well as President of the United States.
He talks nonsense, but obviously for some purpose. I think he is more cunning and wants to achieve some electoral results for himself before the elections or to fool someone.
He takes actions that are unpredictable to anyone, he is not predictable.
I am only interested in the political results of the United States under Trump. And this can only be seen when he becomes president. Im even sure that when Trump becomes president, he will be able to say idiotic things even then. But I dont care what he says or will say, Im only interested in the results of US policy.

Head in the sand and hand in hand with the maga cult:

US president has same relevance as traffic lights in GTA. Even dementia is not a problem. When he plans to say something wrong cutting off his mike is regular procedure.   ;D

Oh really, that's really incredible! Jesus! How evil all the Ukrainians are! Unbelievable!

Meanwhile, the billionaire Russian oligarchs and their children are going directly and personally to the front to defend Russia against the evil Ukrainians, right? Because they would never have the heart to let the financially poor average Russian fight for their fortune. What good people the Russians are compared to the Ukrainians!

And there are thousands of very rich Russians out there ;)


Keep the focus on spending money on overpriced food so that private entities could get richer and buy hotels in in countries where taxpayers are pretty much forced to finance the war...more precisely Tetiana Glyniana and similar.

Tetjana is nicely living between Britain and Croatia, and she will never be accountable for her acts and nor will thousands like her.

And as I recall, we are not financing Russia  ;)

This is so wonderful! Great point! 👏👏👏

Are you now trying to say that putin's invasion of a sovereign country is justified by some weird ambition to exterminate corruption in a different country than russia, while russia is one of the most corrupt countries there is?

While putin is ruthlessly exterminating innocent civilians and children, you (like your russian friend zastavkin before) are constantly spinning and deflecting toward irrelevant matters, since you don't have any meaningful way to defend his murders and atrocities.

If Russia planned to deploy nuclear weapons in Canada, US would do the same. They are the same. US are not bothered for 10.000 children killed in Gaza in couple of weeks with the weapons they financed.

During the time of the hero of Ukraine Stepan Bandera in the 40s and 50s of the 20th century, Ukrainian combat troops eliminated the Russian occupiers quite successfully. And this was with zero help from democratic countries.
I think that Ukraine can wait for the Republicans in 2025 without help from the EU.

Bandera was a fuc.king n.a.z.i

Do you have any valid figures or other evidence for your assertion?


I don't need to, I have gone trough a war and watched thousands of ex bus drivers, grocery sellers and similar ass.holes becoming the richest people in the country after the war.

They and their kids are regularly disabled to go to war, with anemia, flat feet or skewed spine unfortunately stopping them to become heroes which they were "helping" behind the lines.

And those are only small fish, the big ones are not even bothered to explain themself.

Those are the only winners in every war

Europeans, start preparing parking spaces for Russian tanks!
And give more parking spaces for the luxury cars of poor Ukrainian refugees!
https://valahia.news/rich-ukrainian-refugees-in-romania/



This comment can hardly be surpassed in cynicism!

What are you trying to say? That you can bomb someone because they have a Mercedes? Or that someone is not allowed to flee if they are bombed because they have a Mercedes? Or that all Ukrainians drive big cars?

I can do without such low-level comments!

He is trying to say that rich Ukrainians do NOT go to war, they enjoy renting apartments all over Europe including about 5 luxury houses just in my street whil children of poor people are forcefully being sent to front against their will   ;)

He is trying to say that the things that are going on include people like Tetiana Glyniana who is selling food supply's to Ukranian army at enormous prices that WE pay, she just bought 3 hotels in Croatia and quickly sold them after it leaked in Croatian media. She also bought herself no less than 1500 m2 home in Brela in first row next to the beach with money Ukraine is overpaying her for food that she sold for multiple times than retail price in small stores.

And there are thousands of Tetjana Glvnianas out there  ;)

As for me, I don't see democracy ANYWHERE on the Planet.

That's too bad, because then we cannot count on you to defend democracy where it does exist, even if it may not be perfect.

Electing father and son on the most powerful political position in the world among 300+ Million candidates is a bit further from perfect than you are trying to imply  :D

We almost had husband and wife after that  ;D

I hadn't previously realised that Croatians hated Germany so much.
Some of your remarks, including your choice of words, are really low class.

And your racial remarks on wrapping wives is a pure example of class right ?

I don't see any racist remarks here.

I see Ralf's statement as a reference to the oppression of women by a patriarchy that has prevailed for thousands of years in many countries around the world.

Who gives men the right to dictate to women that they must cover themselves or wear a headscarf, while the men who dictate this are allowed to walk around as they please?

If women want to cover up or wear a headscarf, that should be their right and their free choice. If they want to decide against it, they should also have the right to do so.

Narges Mohammadi has just been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for fighting for women's rights.

There are countries where women and girls are forbidden to go to school, to a soccer stadium, to a public park... Is that fair??? Is it okay that just because you were born a woman, you are not allowed to participate in the same things that men love to participate in???

What do you think about this?

Fist of all he said to take OUR wife's and wrap them.

Secondly, most of those regimes were founded and extremists were trained by US army even on US ground and brought to power to destroy the governments that refused to sell oil in USD to water their inflation on the whole world.

What do you think about that ?

That's exactly right. Democracy is truly in danger when people who consider themselves democrats want to decide who can speak and what can be said.

In Russia, you are supposed to go to prison for expressing a critical opinion.
Ganser is allowed to appear everywhere here, spread his opinion and sell his books. Yes, that's what you call democracy.

And in US you can go to prison for telling the truth or jailed without a single proof.

EU Commission is the highest authority in EU and not a single one those people have NEVER been elected by the people of Europe and nobody even know the procedure to become a part of that. Judging by the Baroso and similar examples the titles are being inherited.

Pure example of totalitarianism under the veil of democracy.

I also wonder how would it be presented if this what Christians are going trough was happening to Zionists in Germany.

presenting history from religious books, believing being superior race and calling all the non Jews cattle including non zionist Jews  ;)

Sure, you want genocide statements from UN sources, WHO, Doctors without Borders, Amnesty International or any other human right association claiming Israel is committing a genocide and aiming children ?

 :D

The situation is already catastrophic enough, so why is it necessary to spread false reports?
If it's your opinion that genocide is being committed here, then so be it.
However, I know of no official statement from the WHO or Doctors Without Borders as organization accusing Israel of genocide or the targeted killing of children.
The fact that war crimes are possibly being committed here  or the reference to a humanitarian disaster is something else, but not genocide.

Lats ask the experts...

Raz Segal, the program director of genocide studies at Stockton University, concretely says it is a textbook case of genocide. Segal believes that Israeli forces are completing three genocidal acts, including, killing, causing serious bodily harm, and measures calculated to bring about the destruction of the group. He points to the mass levels of destruction and total siege of basic necessitieslike water, food, fuel, and medical suppliesas evidence.

Lets se what Dr Christos Christou, MSF International president has to say about the situation in Gaza:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSrJKWxj53U


Completely irrelevant. I could now quote other experts who see it differently - but that's a waste of time.

On topic. You simply claimed that several aid organizations you named accuse Israel of genocide as you see it. I caught you bungling and now you're pulling new sources out of your hat as a matter of course.

Well, if you don't want to see what the president of Doctors Without Borders or United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres are saying that's not my problem.

Guterres on Tuesday pleaded for civilians to be protected in the war between Israel and Hamas, voicing concern about "clear violations of international humanitarian law" in the Gaza Strip.

He told the 15-member U.N. Security Council that it was vital to be clear that war has rules, starting with the fundamental principle of respecting and protecting civilians.

"It is important to also recognize the attacks by Hamas did not happen in a vacuum. The Palestinian people have been subjected to 56 years of suffocating occupation," Guterres said.


But as I said, I'm not surprised knowing most of Germans always stand on the wrong side of the history. That's why they have to swallow whats being served from the masters.  ;)

We all remember how the terrorists screamed about the destroyed hospital, but in fact it turned out that the hospital was not destroyed, the rocket did not hit the building but the road, and the rocket was fired by the terrorists themselves.

I don't want to play down the suffering of the civilian population in general.



You exactly want to do that

That was an allusion to completely veiled women in Iran - perhaps it didn't quite come across.


You know exactly the context you wrote it, and bare in mind that Iran looked like europe before west came to spread democracy and founded extremist groups which leaders have been trained by CIA. Russian and US orcs destroyed middle east for their colonial interest.

Also Israeli are crossing the border for decades, destroying fences set by UN and building new ones narrowing Palestinian land,
taking down houses close to border, destroying their roads, cutting water, electricity, food supply, killing international doctors taking down hospitals and FOUNDING HAMAS which was proven. they mined peace agreements and not even hiding it.

Hamas not only wants to wipe out the state of Israel, but all Jews worldwide. This is announced genocide before all eyes.


Blatant lie or deep need of schooling. There are more than a million orthodox Jews just in occupied Palestine and millions both orthodox and non orthodox in the world who support Free Palestine and hate Zionism and openly admit the crimes of Israel. The only fear they have is from their own army and police.

Palestinians just hate oppressors and occupiers, like all the people hate anyone who comes to chase them from their land, steal it and puts them in modern concentration camps denying them food, water, electricity, education, right to travel and more. Jew were welcomed by Palestinians at first before they revealed the plans to take the land. Many normal ones are in good neighboring relationship even today. Its the Zionists that are the problem and Zionists need Hamas or anything similar as an excuse to attack and clean the Palestine from everything that walks. Half of the people that were killed were children. HALF.

As I said, we live at times you can not hide the truth:

Zionist Police is beating up peaceful orthodox Jews for supporting Palestine, same as SS was taking it on Germans that were protecting Jews.

Amnesty international said that, UN said that, Doctors Without Borders , every single relevant human rights movement...they all state genocide and ethical cleaning is being performed and that Israel is using basic needs water and food as weapons against humanity.

With nearly 50% death victims being just children its an unseen crime in modern history beating up even the order of the guy with little mustaches.

As a human I find you pathetic, as a Christian I feel sorry for your kind, and as a grandson of a soldier who participated in the destruction of the world you were about to create I can not be more proud.

Today's events are not about the history of the last centuries, but about the events of October 7, 2023.
Here is a good summary of the events. I saw many of the videos mentioned, most of which have since been removed, myself on the weekend in question.

https://twitter.com/SpencerGuard/status/1731761693737308427

I don't agree, its about historical genocide and ethnic cleansing and the Zionist terrorists are not even trying to deny it in front of the world.

We are talking about the people considering themselves higher cast chosen by God and others are here to serve them. Sounds familiar ?

As radical as it gets


Wow, no arguments and a lot of strong words, which you obviously do not understand, in one sentence (Genocide, ethnic cleansing, Zionist terrorists) - but not a word about the events on October 7.
Not a word about the fact that Hamas not only wants to wipe out the state of Israel, but all Jews worldwide. This is announced genocide before all eyes.

If the more than 1000 Hamas fighters had attacked military facilities in Israel, then that would still be somehow explainable in the overall conflict. However, the barbaric acts of October 7 are not.

When I started in this thread, I claimed that you can't lump all Russians together.

In the meantime, I hope that all travel restrictions for Europe will remain in place for the next few decades. But North Korea is said to have cool surf locations and Iran is very attractive in summer if you wrap your wife up well from top to bottom.

No arguments ?

Zionism has been declared by racist organization by the UN. So we are talking terrorists against terrorist at least.

So you claim that 5000 kids under age of 11 fought for Hamas ?

I'm Croatian, I surf at home  ;) ,

I personally fought Russian puppets and Serbs while your Germany and friends  imposed a weapon buying embargo on us so that they can slaughter us. And that includes Ukraine where candles were being lighten in churches to support victory of their orthodox brothers and celebrating falling of our cities in the hands of pro Russian terrorists armed to the teeth.

Dude, as you are from Germany, I can totally understand your point of view as you are generally standing in majority
on the wrong side of the history and chewing propaganda pretty much all the time so its an honor to stand on the other side.  ;)

As I come from a nation that don't have to feel any moral responsibility to support the ones that become same animals as the ones that were hunting them before and started doing the same thing that was done to them by YOUR ancestors just wrapped in cellophane. And we liberated ourselfs from your kind and from the ones that followed you, and helped Jewish people at the time they deserved help and they fought on our side against you.

The Russians act in exactly the same way in Ukraine. And even more. If several thousand people killed in Israel, then in Ukraine several hundred thousand killed.

You can not fake history at current times! Period

5500 children killed in Gaza since October 07. 2023

1180 children killed in Ukraine since February 24, 2022


All responsible have to face international courts and Israel should face same sanctions as Russia.

He brought Ukraine on the edge of destruction with obeying his masters.
