Have you been thinking about starting an art blog? I will share with you 6 easy steps to start an art blog and have your first post up today.

Start an Art Blog




Selling your art is much easier now thanks to the internet. You have the world’s eyes at your fingertips.

Can you imagine that someone around the world can see the artwork created?

Artists can sell paintings, drawings, digital art, and handmade crafts to people around the world. This can be done but you will have to market and promote your art. Basically, you will be making people aware that you are an artist and you have art for sale.

How to Build an Online Presence

To build an art business online, you need to gain a following and strengthen their trust.

The first step is to take some time to decide on how you would like to brand your online art business.

Here is an article about building an artist brand, Art Branding Basics Increase your Art Sales.

The next step is to create content that will be searchable by search engines.

This is where creating a blog comes in. Every post you create will be searchable on search engines.

The more content you publish the greater your chances of being found become.
