No 500px deleted me, My photos are acceptable on facebook and instagram but to adult for 500px. This proves 500px is not a site for creatives and artists its just a commercial fluffy waste of time 🙂
Peter could you please update this video when you have time? I used to be able to reach over 100K people regularly on facebook and now I’m only getting to 10-20K, I’m struggling to see an alternative platform. FYI this is for a astronomy-landscape page. I would normally post out and hope to make money on print sales and workshops. which was erratic at best.
Thank you for being honest and frank with your experience. I value and trust your opinions when it is so obvious you don’t give a shit about a company (Facebook) that may block your because of your blog comments. Thank you for your honesty.
Very interesting looking at the stats. I was surprised on Google analytics, about my blog pages, (an eye opener). (Received a notice the G data gathering system is changing once again). Regarding site content: The viewers reporting, (complaining) about, posted content, seem to really have clout with the on-line sites, (in getting content removed). Thanks again Peter for another good post about a big-learn-curve-time topic.
Yeah anybody who reports is treated like a robot and you’re blocked without question, but a clever person would shoot for the conditions of each site, you can’t change the site rules but you can change what you post to that site 🙂 glad you enjoyed this one, thanks so much.
Interesting to see the contrast between this post and the one in 2022. There’s quite a difference and it shows how the trends that were just lightly indicated here blew up over time.

Thanks for taking the time to create this. VERY revealing and helpful!
Thanks for sharing this. Did you delete your 500px? If so, what made you decide to do that?

Thanks for sharing your experience with that.

Hi Peter. What webhost are you using for your web page?
We use WordPress for Inspire & Workshops, but for my personal webpage I use a host called NeonSky
