Vic Thornley Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Hi All. I am a new contributor and would really appreciate some feed back both photos and keywording. I struggle to come up with 40+ keywords that are relevant, i don't want to appear to be keyword spamming. I am first and foremost a nature photographer, mostly birds. Many thanks in advance 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Don't worry about finding 40+ keywords. The whole "discoverability" thing is for the birds, as the saying goes. Beautiful images. Best of luck. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve F Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Ditto what John says above. We've collectively decided that you don't need to get the discoverability bar to green - just include as many relevant keywords as you can without spamming. Ditto beautiful images! Your captions are too short, be aware that they are also searchable by clients. Include the Latin as well as the common name and the location.

Vic Thornley Posted September 2, 2022 Author Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) Many thanks guys. How far should i go with captions, hopefully scientific names get picked up from tags in images, do you mean include them also in captions?, will check through them again. I have just noticed captions are limited to 150 characters. Edited September 2, 2022 by Vic Thornley further info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCat Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 I put them as many places as possible because a test of the weighting of elements that might bring your image up sooner is a search shows that having both supertag and caption is helpful Paulette.
