Yesterday, I was contacted by a person looking for photos to purchase for his new business webpage that he is making. Totally random. I haven't been advertising. I just got many of my photos keyworded and captioned so they come up well in Google searches. Hopefully, this afternoon we'll wrap up the sale and I'll get a nice little photo sold message from Smugmug. Anyways, thought I'd share. Thank you Smugmug. :clap

    Same thing happened to me a few months ago. It was all about the keywording because the image was so specific.

    Congratulations! Always a nice surprise to be contacted "out of the blue"clap.gif

    headscratch.gif I've feverishly been trying to keyword my images and really feel that I'm not being very sucessful. Any thoughts or advice. Also whether or not there is a feel for how long it migh take Google and such to connect.
