Great post. I always encourage artists to get some kind of presence online even if it’s a simple blog or a one page website because as more and more thing go online, art buyers and collectors will come to expect artists to have some kind of presence online. It’s true that the Internet works differently. Artists should expect to open a website and to have tons of buyers come stampeding to their homepage. Like anything else, it will take some effort to get people to visit your website, to keep it updated, and to build sales if you’re trying to sell online. But if done correctly, it’s well worth the effort.
