Siftr: A great tool for Photobloggers

Photographers or Photobloggers have limited SEO options for their Web Content. Hence they rely on the social networks to showcase their content.  A great way to showcase content is to create a portfolio. Photographers now have a great number of options and tools at their disposal. But the social network maze is getting increasingly complex.

While Google Photos or Flickr might be a good way to manage and display your photographs, they are severely limited by the fact the one still has to upload the collections of photographs separately to each of them. Linking them to the Social Network is another challenge.

A Photography Website

So I am maintaining a photography website

Are the other two options good for me.

or

http://thetimelock.wordpress.com

Having a sub domain with reputed platforms like Blogger by Google or WordPress is a powerful SEO Tool. But you will end up with having to maintain three websites. Not to mention, this subdomain website is not doing anything active.

Lets assume that the subdomain platform is now able to do something active.

Enter, Siftr, the photography website.
