I have now my website set up well enough to start letting the world know about it. I need to hook it up with the most links and contacts possible so people know I exist and have beautiful pictures for sale. I guess Facebook link is important. How do I go about that? How about any other options?
Check out my website if you like http//www.moniquerebellephotography.com
Thanks!

    In addition to Art's suggestion, take a look at http://www.smugmug.com/help/search-engines.

    I just took a look at your site - I don't see any keywords or captions (although it's possible they could be there, just not in the galleries that I perused). I'd recommend removing the smugmug header, replacing it with something that identifies your site. I'd also recommend switching to the small smugmug footer (as documented in # 16 in the customization FAQ at http://www.smugmug.com/help/customize-faq).

    Do you have a blog? Linking from there to your smugmug site is a good thing.

    Also - you say you have photos for sale, but I didn't see a buy button in any of your galleries. If you are selling photos from another site you need to point to that site from you smug site (if you are trying to drive traffic to the site on which you are selling). If you are selling from your smug site you need to set prices (assuming you have a pro-level account) and enable your galleries for sales.
