What is viewbug? Is it a legitimate Photography app? If you have personal knowledge of the site/app I'd like to know your experience before I decide whether or not to join them. If you prefer to send a private message, please feel free to do so. Thanks.

Viewbug is a photo sharing place. You do not have to pay anything to use, only to get full benis, like a web site, unlimited uploads, selling, etc.

I use it and like it but have not upgraded to now. They have a special for $36.00 for the first year.

You can see what I have done so far here....https://www.viewbug.com/member/Frankraney

I use it. They host my web site for a reasonable price and it was easy to set up. bweberphotographs.com.

They are legit. I have the lite membership, which is free. Lots of contests and challenges. I enjoy it.

Years ago, I intentionally uploaded a very crappy photo to their site. Now I am constantly being told that it has won numerous awards. To view these awards, comes at an upgrade price. They are just out to make a buck. There are much better venues to host your website and sell prints.

Nope. You do not have to upgrade to see rewards. They are what other photographers give for recognition. I have had a Viewbug account/page for years and have always been able to see these. I just recently went Pro. There are other benefits, more uploads, more contests etc. But booth accounts are the same capabilities, just lower quantities of uploads, contest, website, selling, etc, if you do not have a pro account.

Why would you intentionally upload a bad photo. As soon as I see that a photo I have uploaded anywhere is not what I thought it was, I delete it.
