Good keywording is essential to anyone that is attempting to sell anything – especially stock photos – on the internet. Imagine you are a designer who has a client who wants a brochure to advertise their IT Help Desk. So you have all the words but want some background image, or an inserted image to carry the message. You might be looking for a photo of a keyboard, maybe one that someone has manipulated and replaced the SHIFT key with the words “HELP DESK”. You might have an idea you would like a photo of someone working at a Help Desk. Alternatively, you might like something to give your client a competitive edge, like a bunch of bananas with one coloured red. So the keywords you might use should not just describe the image, they should describe a metaphor or a situation. The red banana might be described in keywords as: bizzare, different, variety, change, weird, odd, alert, danger etc. The best keywording assistance comes from a site called CANSTOCKPHOTO Now you will not earn stacks of money from this site, but using their keyword tool is well worth the effort of joining and becoming a contributor.
