Artist Run Website Project - Call for Interest
We are developing a free web platform to enable artists to build their own professional websites without having to learn HTML.
Our goal is to build a platform that is as easy to use as sending an e-mail. Simple. Easy. Professional. An artist's time should be spent making art not learning HTML, programming, or computer software.
Features include:
-Your own website URL: eg. yourname.com, pablopicasso.com, janedoe.ca, anythingyouwant.com etc.
-Your own e-mail address, eg. pablo@pablopicasso.com
-Choose your own design, layout and colour scheme.
-Upload images and create galleries with the click of a button.
-Built in blog: post updates, news, work in progress, random thoughts, etc.
-Create & edit your resume, biography, and artist statement as easily as writing an email.
-Search engine optimization and RSS feeds.
-Simple and easy to use, no manual required.
-Unlimited disk space and bandwidth.
-No advertisements!
This is a three part call for interest:
#1 - Are you interested in building your own website with the Artist Run Website Project? Does this sound like a good idea? Let us know. We'll send you updates.
#2 - Are you an artist that does not have a website? Tell us why! We want to empower artists to get their artwork online and need to know the challenges you face.
#3 - Are you an artist with an outdated or poorly designed website? Tell us the features you'd like to see on the Artist Run Website Project. How can we help you spend less time on your website and more time on your art?
