| I can't vouch for Paul & Linda's systems, but knowing what I went through with my BSB stuff and do go thru with my trackday stuff, it is a task getting the shots up soon after an event. If people ordered & bought in advance, you'd know exactly what and who to take and the job would be easy to get shots uploaded. But when you don't know who your next customer is, you have to try and capture every single rider cos one of them might just be that next customer. That means over 3000 shots from a club race or BSB meeting if you just keep the in-focus/well framed ones. When you then work 9-5 to pay for the next weekened away trackside, it leaves little time to trawl through your weekend's haul and edit each shot individually and then produce the HTML for the website.
Sales amazingly often don't match the investment and time so it's not easy to pay for a glitzy all singing and dancing e-commerce website (we're only photographers, not web designers remember!!!).
My website's well off what I'd want to portray but it's all I could afford from the revenue I earned trackside, which is why I now, sadly take pictures of wind turbines and not 200bhp missiles.
