How do I get explored on Flickr?

On Flickr, how to get your photo explored?

  • I need some tips on how to do it! http://www.flickr.com/photos/68976660@N06/

  • Answer:

    There are 2 ways (first is best) Consistently take good photos, and be an active Flickr member comment and fave other people's pics and take part in group discussions. Add you photos to groups designed to make explore, and other compulsory comment/award groups (add 1, comment 5) your comments will be full of horrible badges with no real comments, but usually does the trick. Explore is an ever changing algorithm dependant on how many views, comments, faves you get and in what timeframe.

I disagree with the idea that the photo has to be good. There are plenty of explored photos that should have been deleted. Here is an article that was given to me when I had the same question: http://blogs.photopreneur.com/what-it-takes-to-get-your-photo-on-the-flickr-explore-page

explore uses an algorithm to deal with these things... firstly, try taking exceptional shots... the ones you've taken aren't very interesting or exceptional... then you need to have lots of contacts and comments and views and favourites... i've had 2 photos in the last 3 years appear in explore...
