June 2016 Site Updates

It's been a few months since I've updated this blog, but don't worry we're still alive, kicking, and ready to deliver more free photos for our growing library.  I've been mostly focused on a variety of other work projects that required my full attention, however, I was still able to sneak in a hiking trip where I grabbed some great photos of the landscape in and around the Baal's Falls area. We had quite the adventure while we were there and I can't wait to share that with you all in an upcoming blog post. In the meantime, feel free to keep downloading our free photos, reading our existing articles, and get ready for another bunch of photos coming soon.

March 2016 Site Updates

It's the last day of March and it's time for our monthly site update yet again. This month has been the month of advertising for the website, as we've invested a bunch of time into our social media presence as well as networking with fellow sites. Here's the rundown: Boosted our post rate on both Twitter and Instagram Our Facebook page is still lacking and is definitely way less active, this is because Instagram and Twitter offer, in my opinion, better discovery feeds so that new users can find us easily. Hopefully we'll start evening out our posts, across all our social media channels as we continue to grow We did a small amount of cross-promotion with another website called Good Free Photos, go check out his photo collection let them know we sent you! We uploaded an entire collection of photos from Tew's Falls and the surrounding...

Happy leap day everyone! We hope you've been enjoying your free photos. As always, it's the end of the month, so it's time for another site updates post. This month has been focused on more content and social media presence. Here's what' we've been up to: Photo Spot Blog Post - New blog post that lets photographers know where to get some great photos. We hope to expand this post into a series, so photographers can find out where to go without checking out random locations in the city. Social Media - We've been trying to get more active on Twitter, and have been experimenting with a few different services to help us with that. Follow us via @FP_Hamilton to keep up with the latest Free Photos Hamilton news.

We'll keep trying to optimize as time goes on, of course, but for the time being we've made the site run much more efficiently than it...

December 2015 Site Updates

Hello everyone, we hope you had a great holiday season this year. December was a busy month for all of us, and now it's time to get back into the regular routine. Just because it was busy, doesn't mean we didn't do any work on Free Photos Hamilton, so here's a look at what we did this month: Changed some back-end organization to assist with admin management, this should make publishing photos faster Added a share menu to each page so you can share photos and blog posts on social media and email Did some work on getting more blog content. Going forward we want to ensure that people will enjoy reading our content, as much as they do downloading our free photos. You should start seeing more blog posts, hopefully regularly, as we experiment with different types of writings including editorials and how-tos. We hope you enjoy Free Photos...
