Art Gallery Pages

Does anyone know what happened to the individual Artist Gallery pages that were in the old billburg.com? Those were great for local artists.

  • We didn't think many people used them so we took them down. If there's enough interest, we can reinvent them--so far we've heard from three artists who said they had people linking to their old site so we restored them individually for them.

    If you get enough people to comment about it here, we re-invent them, but we'll probably have to charge a small fee or put google adsense subtly on the side of the page to help pay for it (like the ads to the right here).

    Interested to here your thoughts on the subject. And thanks for visiting the site!

  • Hey Jason,

    I am a photographer who used to have an artist profile, and was actually visiting Billburg.com to try to remove some of my profile because a). a lot of the work on it was old and b). I wanted to remove the e-mail address and phone number associated with the profile. So, it with much surprise I see that billburg has totally changed!

    To answer your question - I wouldn't mind having the ability to have the profile re-instated, with a link to my website. But I am not a Williamsburg resident - I live in Bed Stuy - so I can definitely go either way on this.

    My main concern right now is actually getting those links to my old billburg.com profile deleted on Google - again, because the work is old, and I don't want that to show up in a Goggle search. Any idea how to get those links off of Google??

    Cheers,

    Rosie

  • Hi Rosie:

    If your profile is no longer on billburg.com, it will eventually be dropped from google but it's not something we have any control over. We may be able to expedite it through our webmaster account with google if you want to email me the search results that haven't cleared yet. Just email editorial@billburg.com.

    Thanks for using the site
