Professional Online Presence
It is important as a photographer to have a professional presence on the internet, to allow photographers to display both commissioned and personal work.
The main platforms that are recommended are Instagram and Twitter, on top of a personal website, but other the more platforms you use, the more likely you are to gain exposure.
Personally, I have an Instagram devoted to just photography, a Facebook business page (which I need to update more frequently), and, more recently, a website created through Squarespace, as a Flickr page. I am yet to create a professional Twitter page, however.
