Deviantart & The Potential For Long Island Advertising Agencies

By Robbie Sutter


Communication, more so than anything else, is important when it comes to social media. If you were to go onto Facebook, for instance, your main goal would be to communicate with others and very few would be able to argue with such a sentiment. However, there are specialized sites built around a certain focus; Deviantart is just one example of this. Even if others may not think that such a site could prove useful for Long Island advertising agencies, I'd like to think that others would feel differently.

When talking about social media websites, DeviantArt deserves focus of its own. Specifically, you have to keep in mind that this site encompasses variety when related to art, regardless of the type of media being showcased on the site in question. If you are the kind of individual who believes that their creativity is strong, it wouldn't be out of the question to assume that DeviantArt could come into effect for you. This doesn't even begin to touch upon the vast community for Long Island advertising agencies to potentially engage.

DeviantArt isn't a place for artwork alone; the viewpoints of others may be brought to the forefront. This is a positive for all of the site's users, seeing as how they will have their own levels of experience to think about. For example, let's say that you are the kind of artist who feels as though he or she has a reasonable amount of experience in art and would like to, potentially, see smaller areas where improvement could be useful. To say the least, the allowance for feedback is helpful.

Of course, you might be curious as to how exactly a site like DeviantArt could be of use to Long Island advertising agencies across the board. The main reason for this is the fact that many of these agencies have graphic and web design specialists, which are two features that could be attributed to DeviantArt. This site embraces creativity, whether it belongs to the marketing industry or not. As a result, the idea of firms such as fishbat utilizing this particular site isn't entirely farfetched.

One can probably argue the idea that DeviantArt is not meant to conduct business but I would disagree with this. The main reason is because many people on the website have actually sold their prints to others, thereby making money off of the work that they have spent time and effort creating. Even if companies do not want to make money off of the site, DeviantArt still works well as a creative platform. This is accentuated by the tremendous art-loving community on the site that could, potentially, be interacted with.
