About the Effective Web Design for Artists panel:
General consensus says that most artists can benefit from having their own unique web presence, but what exactly is your art website doing for you?
Does your website make it easy for buyers to learn more about you, connect with you, and buy your work? If not, let’s fix it.
During this panel we will focus on not only how to make your art website design visually solid, but concrete ways to turn casual visitors into potential collectors.
This panel & discussion will focus on:
● Strategy: Choosing a concrete objective for your website.
● Usability and Simplicity: The importance of pre-planning and organization.
● Basic Do’s and Don’ts: How to sidestep common art website mistakes.
● Delivering Fresh Content: The how & when of website maintenance and updates.
● Affordable resources and options for website design and hosting.
Panelists:
Natale Cree Adgnot- Head Designer at NAT+NEO and Design Instructor at The Fashion Institute of Technology.
