If you're not getting the hits you don't need the website. Get a FREE blogger and FREE photo host.

No use for farther disillusionment by getting and paying for a hosting company.

Oh, I'm getting enough hits right now. I didn't use to back then, but we all have to start somewhere, no?

Flickr, photobucket, zenfolio (the latter being more than just a photo host)

Zenfolio is not free

(but seems my favorite to consider)

DonRicklin · 01-02-2009, 09:14 AM

Personnally I like SmugMug, but it also is not free. Flickr Pro is not free, AFAIK.

Looks like good time to start free Photo Gallery just for pentax slr users...I am thinking about it

I use midphase hosting. Great service and reliability. 250 gig space, 3 TB transfer, $8 or so a month.

Did I say zenfolio?

My bad

. I meant to say Carbonmade.

Think the best (sometimes not possible) is to have their own photo site and only pay the server.
This way can move from one server to another when needed due to better conditions etc.

Dan and the others have made GREAT suggestions.
Also, there is Picassa and although I use it, I am NOT particularly fond of it.

I use it and I find it useful for integration with Dezinerfolio's dfGallery 1.0
Great for a cheap (free!) startup gallery.

Just add pictures to your picasa web album and they are automatically added to your gallery.
