What is the best domain extension for my photography website?

For a strong local or national presence, the country-specific TLD like .de (in Germany) or .at (in Austria) is an excellent choice due to its high relevance and trust. If unavailable, established international extensions like .com or .net serve as good alternatives. You can also consider generic TLDs (gTLDs) that underline your artistic identity or photographic specialization. Examples include .photography , .photos , .gallery , or .art to make your brand unique.

How do I prevent my images from slowing down the website?

Load time is crucial. We recommend optimally compressing images for the web before uploading (e.g., at 72 dpi and with the appropriate pixel width) and saving them in the right format (usually JPG). Our AI helps you find the best balance between image quality and fast loading speed. However, load time is just one of many factors for successful search engine optimization. Our SEO tool can suggest further measures for your website.

Can I use Piwigo to create password-protected client galleries?

Yes , absolutely. The open-source platform Piwigo is an excellent solution for photographers who need to professionally manage large image archives while providing a secure service. Piwigo hosting is designed to set up closed, private client galleries. You can create password-protected areas and grant individual access rights, allowing your clients to securely view, select (proofing), and download their images (e.g., after an event or session).

How do I protect my work from unauthorized downloads?

While complete online protection is nearly impossible, you can raise the barrier: Disable right-click saving (via WordPress hosting plugins), embed invisible watermarks into image metadata, and present the images on the website in a reduced resolution .

What is the best way to organize my photo gallery?

Do not organize your work randomly; use clear categories (e.g., Wedding, Portrait, Business). Each category should feature only your absolute strongest images from that area. Regularly archive outdated work to maintain a current and consistent visual language. Numerous WordPress themes are available to simplify the construction of your own gallery.
