Compared with other portfolio builders, SmugMug is doing fine. We’d bet our entire photo collection that SmugMug can’t touch Wix’s user numbers, but that’s because it’s a specialist service. “But we’re pretty upfront that we have ‘Millions of passionate customers, billions of happy photos’.” “We don’t get very explicit with this,” SmugMug CEO Don MacAskill said. SmugMug is a private company (unlike its rival website builder, Wix), so it doesn’t make its user numbers public. However there’s no free SmugMug plan after the free two-week trial, so there’s not much point in using this website builder unless you’re at least fairly serious about your photography.Ĭlick here to see the full list of SmugMug plans and prices, and here to jump to our discussion about them. It’s so quick and easy to get started, you can publish a SmugMug gallery of smartphone photos in minutes if you want. In fact, you don’t even have to think of yourself as a photographer. Many of my pro photographer friends use online portfolios as shop windows rather than shops, using their websites to tout for business and share client galleries. You don’t have to be a seller to use SmugMug, though. That makes SmugMug a great choice of website builder for anyone who wants to show and even sell their visual work online – including artists and designers as well as photographers. Their layouts vary, but they all use optimal settings to ensure your images load quickly and display beautifully. Unlike market-leading website builders Wix and Weebly, SmugMug only offers portfolio templates. “SmugMug may have a silly name, but it’s serious about making your photos look fantastic.”
