Anyone else trying to promote their Pond5 portfolio? I built a website...

I built https://https://lapsephotography.comLapsePhotography.com to promote my Pond5 stuff via human links and SEO building. Has anyone done anything similar? If so, perhaps we can compare notes, and figure out what works best.

Unfortunately Pond5 won't give us the URLs to the BUY pages of our clips, so the links on my site only go to the search page, which really dilutes the SEO value. I would think Pond5 would want to encourage content promotion, since it promotes their entire site, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Will over 600 clips online here, manually copy/paste of each one is not a realistic solution.... has anyone else found a way?

BTW, the EDIT and DELETE links in this forum are broken, as well as the LINK function.

The site I built is https://lapsephotography.com

LapsePhotography.com

@KillerImage Yup not only broken links, I reported the fact that the PHP query code is broken you may have noticed this as well so the audio link or any sep forum link for that matter does not take you back to the audio forum as its missing the id code to do so. example: ?forum=nothing needs to be ?forum=715 which refers to where we are posting this from, that means the var is empty, this should have the id that links us back to the forum we are in With this bigger take from us cant they fix all these little coding issues.

I would have had this fixed ASAP does anyone care anymore? I will check out your site I was actually happy when I saw that there was or used to be PHP based code to allow calls from within our own site. sadly when I tried it it did not work at all and was told that it was not in use. Even the hidden demo site was broken. Not sure why this is still not fixed, common already POND I reported this around the middle of last year ...

O and another thing many prob do not know is that if you did not check the box to be notified in that individual forum you will never know if you got a response from your post, so i am sure there are many that do not know that someone responded to there post unless they check it each day. So to do so for those that may be unaware go to a forum click (View all posts in this forum) and then scroll all the way to the bottom, check the Subscribe to this forum box, a little convoluted no?.

I don't even think preview works either I think I'm going to do more tests to see what I can find and send it in to be fixed correctly, This is not fair to those of us who feel the forum is of use.

I think im going to add that to all my posts.

Boy This Needs Some Work ...

Were you notified that I responded?

No, I was not notified that there was a reply to this post.

@KillerImage See that's not good and exactly my point.

Try the following if you have not ...

Go to a forum in this case this forum ... GENERAL DISCUSSION
https://www.pond5.com/community

Click (View all posts in this forum) and then scroll all the way to the bottom, check the (Subscribe to this forum box) and then you should be notified via email. I bet most never get notified as they never knew to check the box, so they have no clue if they got a response unless they check back constantly on the actual forum they last posted to.

By the way, Saw Your Site Nice hope it works to get them to your portfolio I have to do something like that as well ...

Hi,
You can advertise your link on any kind of Traffic Exchange sites or mailers. On some of them you can make your blog for free and advertise what you want, introduce yourself and your work.
Regards to all.

Hi - What exactly do you mean by "Traffic Exchange sites or mailers"?

I'm very pleased to see that my promotion site is WORKING - I've moved to page #1 in Google on my keywords on the clips that are promoted on my site. Everyone should be doing this.

Great job Killerimage. I know when I promote through instagram and twitter, definitely gets some views. I have gotten sales through Instagram as a result as a lot of content creators follow me and they let me know when they purchase. I want to do a basic website like yours, but also links to purchase prints as I do sell those here and there from the travels. Who did you go through?
