Upload them continuously<br />
Try not to overload your Flickr account and your contacts by uploading a lot of<br />
photos at once. Keep the upload stream low and upload just 1-2 photos a day.<br />
You may upload one in the morning and one in the evening. Like this your<br />
photos get the biggest attention. Depending on your location you may upload<br />
your photos at the time when the biggest Flickr crowd (probably the USA) is<br />
getting up in the morning. You may also change the time when you upload<br />
and figure out when it's best to do so. The point of time, when you upload a<br />
photo, is very important.<br />
Geo-tag your photos<br />
Flickr has a feature to tag the location of your photos. Just make a use of it.<br />
Especially when you search in a certain area like a city you visit, you may want<br />
to find the good spots for street photography or find some good photographers<br />
who are in that city very often to shoot their photos. With the map and<br />
the view option you can really find a lot of good photos.<br />
Tag your photos<br />
A lot of marketing people search in Flickr for photos they want to use for different<br />
publications. The better you tag your photos, the higher the chances<br />
are that they find your photos. You can have up to 75 tags per photo as a Pro<br />
user. Use this feature as it is quite handy. You can also mass tag your photos<br />
in "Organize & Create" which is even easier. Please don't use tags which don't<br />
apply to your photos just to get attention. It's about marketing, not about<br />
spamming.<br />
Add your photos to groups<br />
With a pro account, you can add your photos to 60 groups (10 on a free account)<br />
in Flickr. Use this option to get your photos visible to a big audience.<br />
First of all you have to join a group, before you can add photos. It's important<br />
that you only post photos to groups related to street photography or at least<br />
about what is visible on your photo. I have posted my shoes also in the "Foot<br />
Fetish" and "High Heels" group just to be sure that these people have also<br />
something from my photos. Since nobody complained so far, I guess it is fine.
