Are there any pro real estate photographers out there that can point me to an excellent web site hosting service that is more suited for real estate photographers or that specializes in hosting real estate photographers web sites?? Thanks in advance for your help. Rich
Thanks for your reply Rongnongno. Do you have any experience with a suitable web hosting service specializing in real estate photographers?
No but in the google page you have folks reporting their experiences.. Use that as a talon.
I appreciate your effort to help me but I would like to hear from some real estate photographers that are currently using a chosen web site hosting service that they are happy with and can recommend. Thanks again for your help. R

Nope.
I use my own web site, post the photos there for download by clients.
I don't advertise. I get enough scam offers as it is.
Have you consulted your local Board of Realtors or other RE professional organizations to see what others in your area are using?
I'm sorry...maybe this is the wrong forum to pose such a question. I am very aware of the capabilities of the internet and contacting organizations and such. I feel it is a better use of my time to reach out to fellow real estate photographers that are currently happy with their web hosting service that would be kind enough to recommend one to me. Thanks for all your responses.

I am a real estate photographer and I use Zenfolio. It is not only for real estate however.
I have used it for years but have been too busy to keep it updated. There is a learning curve, as in any new endeavor, but there are different templates and color schemes that are very attractive.
It is not expensive, I pay $135 a year and Zenfolio is there to help you.
Take a look at my site
http://www.WendyPickardPhotography.com to see how I use it for real estate.
I am found on the internet very easily. When you type in real estate photographer for many of the cities I service, such as Thousand Oaks or Simi Valley, I am on the first page of Google. Apparently there are not that many real estate photographers that have web sites, so mine is found easily because of the lack of competition.
I get several calls a month from agents that find my web site, especially if they are out of the area and have a listing in my area. They are looking for a local photographer and when they search, there I am.
If interested in Zenfolio I have a code that will get you a discount when you purchase but you must mention the code while purchasing, not after the fact. If you use it I get credit on my next bill.
The code is D62-2K6-RVV
Hope I helped!!

Wendy...Thank you so much. Your work is stunning! I will check out Zenfolio once again. I looked at it a few years ago and for whatever reason it just did not appeal to me. I am using Photobiz where the cost is about $300 a year. I think Zenfolio may be better with equal or better products for less cost. I don't mind the learning curve. Thanks for the code too. I will use it. Here is my web site:
