I'll try. 

 

Regular customers can log in to the alamy.com site and search from their login page. New customers or those who are just browsing can go to the site and start from the search box.

Customers do not typically search for individual contributors. They put in keywords for an image and look at the image search results from numerous contributors.

 

If you want to share your portfolio with someone, then see 'Your Alamy Portfolio Page' on your Dashboard.

If you put your name in the keywords you can find your images from the search page. Caption and keywords are what produce results in a search.

I took a look at your images and saw no keywords at all. I'm surprised they show up on the site as we are supposed to add at least 5 tags (I think).

I don't understand what you mean, Steve. Are we not supposed to add keywords always?

That was my understanding as well. However, there are plenty of images on Alamy with no keywords and skimpy captions.

 

Go figure. 🙄

I meant if you're not impressed with the keywording, you won't like the captioning much

 

Captions in French ???? Hmmmm....

It's a heartache but Bonnie Tylers name has somehow got lost in France. Still wondering about the total eclipse of the keywords (how is it even possible to be on sale without tags?)

Searching for images used in the papers I have occasionally found those with completely wrong captions - presumably keyworded en bloc -  and those without a  caption.  I guess that their authors' keywording skills exceeded those required to write a decent caption !

 

I always check both my keywords and captions a few days after keywording, but, nevertheless, the odd omission/mistake still creeps in !
