I took some time off from my New Year relaxation to do a bit of work on my website. As you can see, it changed quite a bit, this layout looks superb and completely fits my needs so far. I wanted to gravitate from the blog-style layout to a more serious, more image-oriented layout. This way I can concentrate on promoting the art, which gets seen first of all in the neat central column.
Apart from doing that, I also decided (while the place is still small and manageable) to do some SEO optimization. Picking up the nearest link in Google, following instructions from there wasn’t all that difficult.
Granted, I didn’t do everything on the list, some points were already filled and some I just couldn’t figure out yet. I decided to put focus on the idea of tagging and describing everything on my site. Well, not everything, but practically everything. I added tags and descriptions to all of my images and galleries, described every category. Soon, I’ll be adding more tags into the mix as well for all of my posts.
There’s the arrival of Adsense in discrete places, a welcome guest on many thousands of websites on the internet. It doesn’t distract and provides a small source of revenue. Really, little effort for a penny earned.
