Same here. Come Christmas I would and hopefully when I launch my newly upcoming blog (a hardly kept secret but I’ve spoiled it already).

I don't have that much time either, but on occasions when I do, I try to take some shots. .-= Sire´s last blog ..Why Marketing Your Ad Space Should Precede Marketing Your Blog =-.

I love photography but I simply don’t have much time to go out and get some shots. I even lost some photos before. I’m not sure if I would even start a photoblog either.

I didn't know that about flickr, but that won't affect me as I am a paying member, seeing as how I've uploaded so many images due to my photo blogs. .-= Sire´s last blog ..Keyword Abusers Force Comment Policy Change =-.

We do share the same method, the only difference is that I host my larger images on Picassa Web Albums. I tried to use Flickr but decided not to when I’ve read that older images could possibly be deleted for free users aside from the fact that the image uploader isn’t free compared to Picassa’s.

Picassa being own by Google doesn’t necessarily contribute to Google Image search traffic, it doesn’t add anything at all. I just wanted to host my images somewhere based on experience and as what I have learned from attending WordCamp here in Manila.

For broken images on sites that host their images on their server, it happens when the images on the multimedia lib file are deleted or somehow got corrupted and it’s definitely bad for SEO.

All my large files are hosted of flickr as, in my opinion, it is the best around. Any small files that are part of my web or blog templates I host myself as I do not find them to be too much of a drain as they are relatively small and are all optimized to reduce bandwidth. I have noticed with so sites that people use to host their images, that there are times when no image is displayed because they have used all their bandwidth. .-= Sire´s last blog ..Giving Your Blog That Christmas Feel =-.

Well John, good luck on your upcoming blog. Hosting photos on a third party provider is really a saver.

Even I am planning to do the same for my upcoming blog. Since this will not only save bandwidth but also the storage
