Title: How much does it cost a website to put my portfolio and sell directly from it?
Post by: Miguel Calo on November 20, 2012, 04:42

Hi!

So, this is the question. I have already more than 1000 vectors. What if I want to sell them from my own site? How much such a website would cost?

What about selling on Fotolia/Shutterstock in the same time? Am I allowed to sell my work on whatever price I want, mentioning I am not exclusive on any agency?


Thanks.

If you are not exclusive then you are free to sell your images on your own site at whatever price point you decide.  There is not point in undercutting the agencies though.

And, since you posted in the correct area, I'm guessing you've read a bit of the previous threads, but there is a lot of useful information in lots of the threads in this section

You can get Ktools for a few hundred and get hosting and domain for standard prices. There are other options too in the link Leaf provided.
