This place is on the buddy system. They tell you when you sign up that the amount of "likes" you get will figure into their Search Engines. That's a big lie. Nepotism runs rampant here. What they do is run promos with their buyers whom are all art collectors and recommend artists to them who do very ordinary work but also happen to be in their inner circle. I found this out because a friend of mine who bought some work from Fine Art America kept getting these promos. One of the people they promoted had no "likes" at all and only one or two views. If you go to FAA in hope of selling your work stay away unless you're very close friends with the higher ups here. Sadly they're misleading over 99 percent of their 200,000 members.
This site is possibly the most misleading site I have ever joined. The sign up info is full of lies. The manner in which the company treats it's contributors is disgusting. Members have to pay $30 subscription and are then treated to the worst customer service in the history of customer service. Any queries which are dealt with are generally dealt with by lying and feigning ignorance. The staff/moderators on the site will regularly ABUSE members for saying something which may oppose the official "company line". There has also been a recent appeal made by the company for new contributors. By uploading their phone snaps to the site... and they call this "fine art". This site is a scam.
This is a great site to purchase art. It is also possible to create your own art and sell it on this site. It is an awesome community of art enthusiasts.
My cousin bought my print one of my prints on a canvas board and just love the quality of the print. They said it is like going to a art museum. I have had a lot of reviews on my art work. I will be posting images on that site for along time.
Answer: FAA is a Terrible Company and I think most if not ALL 5 star reviews are Fake! I was a member there for 4 years and it was all downhill. Stayed as long as I did because I was still making sales. But they WENT OUT OF THEIR WAY to block me from any Features or posting in communities. Order from them and you'll be very disappointed. Shipping costs are very high and if you want to return something they'll make you pay shipping AGAIN! The quality of the work they ship is also disgraceful. They even use a fake Corporate Address. STAY AWAY FROM THIS HORRIBLE COMPANY!
Answer: I have been a very loyal and outspoken fan of Fine Art America until I had to deal with their customer service department regarding two defective pillows I received. I have tried calling. I have tried leaving messages. I have tried emailing. I have not gotten an accurate and clear response to my inquiry on these pillows. So, yes, now I am posting a negative review which is quite unfortunate. I will also go to the site you mentioned and post my review there also. Fine Art America needs to up their customer service quality, immensely.
Answer: You answered your own question - you haven't done ANYTHING. How do you expect to be found? You have to advertise. There is plenty of information in the forums on the site on how to do that. If you upload and sit, that's all your doing. You have to tell people you exist. The site only prints the work. This is also the wrong place to ask this, ask in the site and you'll get a flood of answers. I also can't say much here because i need to see the quality of your work, is it well presented? Do you have keywords, descriptions, are you adding work all the time? Do you have social connections and so on. Its a lot of work. ---Mike Savad http://www.MikeSavad.com
Answer: Technically there is a phone number for customers when you log out. While not ideal, it might work if you call that number. Otherwise use tech support and be sure to use a gmail address.
