lynnfriedman Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 How do you improve the visibility of a photograph? yes, I've made supertags, tags, descriptive titles.....

Phil Preston Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I would start by looking at the titles you already have, eg the word tomato used to describe cloth, elastic bands described with the word architecture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I've searched and can't find this topic covered, so forgive if I've missed something) Try searching the forum for "discoverability" there are lots of threads on this. PS. The preview of your image HNC02F doesn't look right to me. It looks like the image may have been over compressed during processing, or there's been a glitch at Alamy, or it's got far too shallow a depth of focus. IMHO it's very unlikely to sell.

NYCat Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 You seem to have fallen foul of one of the biggest annoyances of the Image Manager. You have to deselect an image before moving on to the next one. Drives me crazy. Also, Alamy suggests using full sentences in captions. They say the search engine will give those captions preference. Also, it can take time and work and many images to achieve a high ranking. If you cannot be patient here the whole experience will likely drive you crazy.

Sally Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 Also be mindful of US/UK terms. We don't call them rubber bands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynnfriedman Posted December 21, 2018 Author Share Posted December 21, 2018 thank you, everyone, for the responses I have changed the titles and will patiently await my higher visibility ranking also, I will look up the UK version of rubber bands!

That’s either a generation thing or a geographical thing (ie North of the border). No one I know uses the term rubber band. We will be calling pavements sidewalks next....
