That just shows your ignorance.

Most working photographers don't have a web site, have no need of one
and don't want one. They are a waste of time and effort, resulting in
a great many spurious and time consuming "enquiries" and very few
genuine business leads.

Of course a personal web site would appear **absolutely essential** to
anyone on an ego trip, like yourself.

Maybe when your need to massage your ego diminishes, you will spend
less time posting risible and quite useless "advice" on subjects you
know less than nothing about, and more time learning the basics of
photography. Only then will you achieve even a tiny amount of ability
- the extremely basic ability that still eludes you at this time.


You are a laugh TP and skilled at twisting meanings, if little else.

You are correct that a "working photographer" who has a full time
job working for some company (eg: publication) does not need a
website. But YOU paint yourself here as a freelance or
independant photographer who is often providing stock for various
unrelated publications (calendars, etc), doing wedding and
portraits, etc. That a freelance photog of this type would not
have a website is laughable and just another indication that you
are not what you claim.

Your protests above are so much drivel and a pathetic attempt to
deceive.
