Whether you’re displaying a portfolio of art or simply want a way to share your photos with family and friends, you will need a CMS that makes image management quick and easy. Any of the common CMS systems out there are well-suited to designing and managing an image driven site. However, you may want to choose a popular CMS such as WordPress, especially if you plan to have other people manage your content. It is easy to learn and use and most people are familiar with it.
If you need a customized CMS, you may want to consider discussing your project requirements with a web designer. There are many great custom solutions for image driven sites including BravoCMS, which is a scalable content management solution offered by Pinpoint Digital.
Finally, if you aren’t looking to establish your own presence on the Internet, you might consider a popular option for posting photos such as Tumblr. It is a great way to get your photos out there and shared by masses of Tumblr users. However, you need to keep in mind that you won’t have ownership of it like you would your own website. You are at the mercy of Tumblr. What’s the best option for you? It really depends upon your needs.
