Promoting your service is quite easy with a Blogging site, which is easy to run, easy to update and easy to publish on the search engines.

Some great Blog sites include WordPress and Blogger. They are the two most powerful sites which have a high Page Rank (PR). I recommend using a paid WordPress hosting site as you can change and customise your themes quite easily. If you don’t know CSS or HTML don’t despair as there are hundreds of Free Photography templates online that can be used. Your alternative is to buy a customised template which are usually less then $100.

Tip 2: Add Tabs / Buttons to News Readers

Sites such as Bloglines, Google Reader allow for members to receive an RSS feed on their favourite blog niche that they have interest in. Having a RSS button on your website or blog will allow readers to get updated access of your blog every time you post something new.
