Albums Ranking

To ensure well-made and good quality albums be seen by our valued visitors we have implemented a sophisticated album ranking system which decide which albums will appear first in “Albums” section. This system is still beta and in the future we plan to apply it on all photos and profile pages as well so if your photos get good ranking you can get the benefit of being seen by many visitors and getting more traffic so we urge you all to pay attention on how to improve your ranking in our system. Here are some guidelines for improving your rank.

  1. Choose a meaningful category and sub-category for all of your albums.
  2. Keep all of your albums up to date and avoid any broken images or empty albums.
  3. Write meaningful title,description and keywords for all of your albums.
  4. Make sure all of your photos have meaningful names and titles.
  5. Avoid using hot-linking for large images extensively instead link to the portal page of each image.

If you’ve done all of that we assure you’ll get a good rank and high quality traffic to your profile, albums and if you’re paid member you can put your website link there and convert this traffic into effective sales to your products, services or images.

Added Security Measures

It came to our attention that the number of people abusing our service (aka. spam or illegal activities) are increasing over time. So to protect innocent users from such an abuse and keep our service clean and continue our service with the same quality we had to work on several security measures. Which can be summarized as following. ps. security measures are applied only to non members. if you sign up you will not have to care about that.

1- Captcha system (Human check system): this is to ensure that humans only are uploading images to our system. robots and automatic uploaders mustn’t used in any way.

2- Spammers global block list: we have compiled a global block list to block known spammers from using our service.

3- Manual check: we have built a back-end to manually check all images uploaded to our system. Usually non members have tighter and more checks than members using our service for long time.

4- People abusing our service will have their IPs and/or accounts get blocked. You’ll need to contact us to have them recovered.

Generally we highly recommend all our users to join to have richer service and more convenience using our service.
