I am targeting a niche , so not just anyone that is interested in blogging, but more specifically photographers who are interested in blogging. Hopefully by doing so I will be maximizing my potential to catch a larger percentage of a smaller audience rather than a small percentage of a much larger one due to much less competition and more targeted content to reach a specific audience segment.

The website will cover everything from the basic priciples of blogging, to technical tips and how-tos, and even discuss some more advanced ideas such as using inbound marketing strategies like SEO and social media to drive traffic to your photography blog/website.

Like any project I undertake… this one is born out of a serious passion; both for blogging and photography, however just like any project I follow through on, there are some ulterior financial motives.  In addition to simply providing valuable information and resources to photographers interested in starting or advancing their photography business online.   The website will act as a magnet for potential clients interested in taking their online presence farther than they are technically capable of achieving by themselves.

Picture this, A landscape photographer who sells stock photography decides they want a website to promote their work online.   They google “How to set up a photoblog” and find my post Quickstart Guide to Starting your Photography Blog.  They follow my tips and even though they are not that tech savy they manage to get their site going.  They are now finding a number of other helpful resources on Blogging Photographer, but then decide there are a few tweaks they’d like to make to their website, but they just don’t really care to learn HTML, CSS, PHP, or Wordpress to figure it out.

That’s where I come in.  I am generating an automated referral business, providing people with something of value hopefully people will continue coming to my site for useful information.  However when they want to take things one step farther… I will be there for them, offering my services to assist them in achieving their goals.
