THESE WEBSITES

Hi Kaushik. Perhaps I should improve the writing on the page. My “website design” section is for photographers who want to set up their own website. Microstock companies display photos from all their photographers, so your photos are mixed in with competing photos. If you shoot weddings or events, you might want your own website to display and sell only your work. For that, you could use the companies listed at http://www.photosecrets.com/photography-website-design-top-10.
