<p>[QUOTE="Jeepfreak81, post: 3066293, member: 93888"]I used to dabble in Internet marketing and had 6 or 7 sites at one point, although I wasn't able to put the time into needed to make any real money. But I digress. First off, wordpress is a great platform to use, it's very SEO friendly and probably part of the reason you have had good search result rankings. The exact match domain probably helps some, but google doesn't hold that in as high regards as it used to. </p><p><br /></p><p>I only took a quick look at your site as I'm on my lunch break at work and have other things I'd like to do right now, I might check it out more in depth tonight if I get a chance.</p><p><br /></p><p>For now, I'll leave you with this. First a question, are the photographs on the site yours? If they are, fine, you are good to go. If they are not yours you risk copyright infringement. Now if they were obtained through creative commons you are ok but you need to in most cases attribute the photo to the original owner. If however you just cherry picked them off the internet, you will at some point have an issue on your hands. At some point your site may become more popular, google's algorithm is very smart and some people actually check for their images online as well. This will cause at the very least your site to be shut down, and possible fines, etc etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>Some people get away with it for a long time, other's not so much. Just wanted to make you aware of the possible issues in case you're new to that sort of thing. And again, if they are your images you're fine the way you are. If you got them through creative commons use, you're also fine, but need to reference the owner of the image in a way that's compliant with the creative commons rules for that image.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
