5 Free Ways to Market and Promote Your Art Online
Do you want to sell your art?
The most common question I hear from artists and including me is “How Do I sell my Work?” And while that answer is slightly different for every artist, it really comes down to having an effective art marketing plan. A frequent question that comes up for artists who want more exposure for their work is, “How do I become a known artist?”
And believe it or not, every artist will market their work sooner or later, in one form or another, and most likely on multiple levels. You really can’t prevent it, even if you tried.
Clear Communication is the most important ingredient in any healthy business relationship, such is the case between artist and gallery. This is particularly important for the gallery represented artist who is also self promoting their artwork or craft via their website, blog and Social Media.
If used wisely, social media has the power to create community, provide a kick of inspiration, and help us visualize what we find important. But for artists who want to gain visibility or grow a following on social media, using such apps and online platforms can quickly become a source of frustration and isolation. To help, we spoke with four artists and one social media expert about how artists can use their social media habits to strengthen their art practices.
Here are five free ways to promote your art online:
- Start a Blog:

- Create Your Own Videos:
