Premium Features & Reasons To Upgrade
Back To Blogs List
Some of our artists and galleries who upgrade their account, have not taken full advantage of their premium features. We've noticed that the primary reason for upgrading is the ability to post more artworks. While this is an important reason of the upgrade, we'd like to take this opportunity and allow you to familiarize with the other features at your disposal.
Silver Plan
Did you know that when you upgrade to our Silver plan, instead of redirecting a visitor to your profile page within gotartwork.com, your sub-domain (i.e. your-name.gotartwork.com) will function as a separate website?
But that's not all. You can also customize your sub-domain
- Add a header background image.
- Choose a theme (more themes are planned for the future).
- Change your website menu.
- Add custom pages to your website.
- Request a different sub-domain like somethingelse.gotartwork.com
The setup is fast and easy. Check out the sub-domains of some real artists below.
harry-pisikyan.gotartwork.com
jeff-renfro.gotartwork.com
gail-zavala.gotartwork.com
Your artwork, collection, profile pages as well as an online contact form come standard with your sub-domain website. Another advantage is that it comes with an integrated shopping cart system. This allows you to put it in your business cards and other promotional material.
Gold Plan
Think of our gold plan as a sub-domain on steroids. It is almost identical to our silver plan. You can customize your website menu, add your own pages and change the theme. Plus, it has the same built in shopping cart system. But it also has some distinct advantages.
The main advantage is your own top level domain name like www.your-name.com. It looks way more professional to have www.your-name.com printed on a business card instead of your-name.gotartwork.com. It's shorter and easy to remember.
Some artists spend hundreds of dollars to hire web designers to create their website. As an artist, you might then realize that it's not a fixed cost. There's the hosting and maintenance fees. Then comes the realization that a business card website is simply not enough for selling artworks. In today's internet powered world, it can be crucial to having a functional business website. In order to avoid some of those hassles and in order to avoid further costs of re-designing their websites, some artists turn into self made web designers. But it takes time to learn the various details and generally you might end up with a barely functional, poorly designed website.
The gold plan allows you to free up your time so you can focus on creating artworks instead. And, with a few clicks, you can change the appearance of your website by choosing from a number of professional website themes. With a fixed yearly cost, you can avoid all those hassles and allow GotArtwork to maintain and apply any necessary upgrades in the future.
See a sample gold plan domain in action and feel free to upgrade your account when you're ready.

Say Good Bye to the Old Way of Arranging Print On Demand Sales with Your Customers.
Both the Gold and Silver plans bypass much of the hassle with (goto my website, choose an artwork, send me an email, I'll send you an invoice, you pay with PayPal, i order prints from some company and then i ship it to you). Your customers, can shop, order and receive their prints without all that hassle of arranging the sale. If you've already upgraded your account so that you can post more images, why ignore the fact that you have a functional website? It might take you only a few clicks to customize it.
