For the past couple of months, I've been struggling to market myself; especially when it comes to Facebook. For the amount of time my page has been up, I wasn't doing all that bad. Of course, I wanted more, though. Not only more "likes," but also more interaction. I felt as though I was updating my statuses from my photography page and the only interaction I was having with anyone was with my fiance, who was kind enough to "like" the things I posted.
Then, one day, I got the idea of uploaded a photo. I decided to call the photo "photo of the day." After thinking about it for months, I finally came to the realization that I don't think that many people have even seen the photos on my Flickr page, which means they haven't seen my recent work either. I stopped uploaded every photo I took to my Facebook page a while ago, in fear of people stealing my photos. The first photo I posted got me the most interaction I've ever had on my photography page. For those of you who don't know this, there's actually a feature that allows the admin to schedule when something will be posted. So, I sat at the computer for hours, uploaded photos and scheduling them to be released at 1 p.m. once a day up until January 17th, at which point I anticipate I will have more photos to upload. Over the past couple of days, the "success" of my photography page has grown exponentially, and I finally feel as though I'm making some progress via social media.
