Art Sites

Managed websites designed specifically for artists can be a great springboard to get your work known, as you can tap into a ready-made arts audience.

Although many of these sites charge a subscription fee, the benefits can far outweigh the cost if you choose wisely.

When looking at subscription websites for artists, consider what you’re provided with as part of the agreement.

How many visitors are there to the site, who are they and where are they?

How highly does the site rank on search engines?

What does the site do to promote contemporary art and support its members?

Is it possible to speak to other artists and create supportive networks?

Are artists selected to high standards and would your work sit well alongside other pieces presented there?
