To help promote our professional clients we've just updated the Queensberry photographer directory. You can now include up to four images to show off your work.
Listings are absolutely free - so if you haven't already, now's the time to add some images and get the Queensberry website working for you. The directory link is right on our home page (Where To Buy) and gets a lot of traffic.
When visitors open the directory it automatically searches for photographers closest to them, but they can also enter another location. Listings with images rank first - but distance from the search location and the amount of business you do with Queensberry also count.
We don't want you to languish at the bottom, so please take a minute to add or update the images in your listing by going to the Get Found link in Workspace. You can also include a brief message and your website and social media links.
All the best from everyone at Queensberry.
PS Yes, you need to be an approved professional photographer or album designer with an active Queensberry account to publish a listing.

Hi Rachel - briefly, the Directory searches outwards from the location you enter until it has located a maximum of fifty photographer "candidates". The maximum distance it searches is 100km (62 miles). In some big cities that can mean all the studios are quite close, but more often they'll be quite widespread. Once it's built its list of candidates, accounts with images are displayed before those without, and regular customers get priority over others. We've tweaked those two parameters (maximum distance searched and maximum candidates) after reading your comment. Take another look and see what you think.

What is the criteria for the order in which names are listed on the directory? In my area (Oxford UK) there seems to be loads of photographers that aren't based in Oxford.
