Family Photos - Share Sites are a Great Way to Start Sharing

I recently spent some time at Shutterfly to learn more about their free share site service. I was so impressed with the ease and flexibility of their template that I decided to create a sample family share site so that visitors to LocalArchiver.com could better visualize how they might benefit from creating one of their own. No web design experience is needed, and Shutterfly has made it easy and relatively intuitive to build a very customizable share site.

These share sites are much more than a place to park some photos for sharing. The many useful and powerful features will allow you to be very creative in customizing the share site for your own interests and needs.

Features can be useful to share images, thoughts, schedules, favorite links, and much more among members of many types of communities. These might include extended families, youth sports teams, and special interest clubs and organizations.

Want to post thoughts or articles and allow community member comments? Might it be useful to see current weather at multiple locations? Would a community benefit by sharing a handy list of favorite and relevant web links? Could a youth sports team roster or organization membership list be useful? Might a detailed calendar of events or project tracking be useful to an organization?

A Shutterfly share site may be just the thing for your family or organization. Learn more and access the sample family website by reading LocalArchiver's article on Building a Shutterfly Family Share Site.
