Print them.

Show them to anyone who will look at them.

Beyond that, much depends on your station in life and your objectives and your available time and your capabilities that extend past photography and into the realm of business and beyond.

Now, we can play 20 questions, or you can think about what might be useful if you were to try to answer such a question in other fields of endeavour and then give a little background about those issues.

A good start would be to fix your www link.

Works for me.

I've been thinking the same. The 'old days' we used to print them out, stick them in albums and when your friends came round for fondue you'd bring them out and get cheese all over them.

Now days, its all a bit different. I've started a blog, I have a fb page, so I share my stuff with those who are interested. I'm not selling my photos (no where near that skill level) but its a good place to start for me I feel, if I ever do get to go down that road.

For now, I share, ask advice, have other people share their stuff on my blog.

I've also started a twitter account. I guess it all adds up to getting some exposure (no pun intended) and a following... then if people want to buy (and I think people less and less do) they can.

For me, if I did monetise, at first it would be purely to recoup my costs and time... anything on top of that would be gravy! I'm looking at asking a builder I'm working for if he would like me to take some semi-pro photo's of his buildings... if he wants to use or keep them he can pay for what he wants... if not, it was a good learning experience for me and I get to show people where I've worked!

The Zenfolio link works. The "www" link at the bottom of the post, however, leads to "aol.com."

That's it. Not only that, but it attempts to login as the user, so I didn't accept it or go past the warning screen. Thanks for posting. I was getting ready to post a pic of the warning and had to go run errands.
