Optimize keywording process with us

Writing search terms may seem like a superfluous touch to a collection of images; however, the easier your images are to find, the easier they will be sold. All the other efforts you have made, like traveling to a certain location, investing in expensive photography equipment, paying for hours of preparation and resources, all to make a perfect picture, these need to be augmented by relevant and useful keywords.  We have seen poor quality pictures keyworded properly have better sales then artistic ones with amateur keywords.  Precise search terms, then, are not just an added garland to your collection, but an integral component, a high-octane motor catapulting your images into the path of interested buyers.

The approach to generating search terms at Global Image Lab is a professional philosophy that:  

• has developed the discretion to know when an object or thematic concept is strong enough to be applicable, and not merely background
• knows how differing search term systems recognize keywords
• approaches keywording through the thought process of how a buyer would go about searching for the photograph, best generating traffic of potential clients
