• Blog Integration: By integrating a blog, I started sharing stories behind my projects, upcoming exhibitions, and thoughts on the creative process. This keeps the site dynamic and engaging, encouraging visitors to return.

Organic Advertising

• SEO/SERP: I linked my social media profiles to the portfolio site, making it easy for visitors to follow my work on other platforms. I regularly share updates about new blog posts and art pieces, driving traffic back to my site.
• Word of Mouth: I reached out to fellow artists and bloggers for collaborations and guest posts. This not only helped in reaching a broader audience but also built a community around my art.

The Future Looks Bright

• Adding Services: Implementing Google Analytics on my WordPress site was a game-changer. It allowed me to see which pieces and blog posts were most popular and how visitors interacted with my site.
• Growing Team: I actively sought feedback from peers and mentors, using their insights to continuously refine and update my portfolio.
