Until very recently, Diesel House only built websites for artists that rented with us.  We are now expanding this opportunity to artists based anywhere in the world.

Our site attracts on average over 12,000 hits per month and there is a genuine opportunity to make significant sales by joining our online gallery.

 

Basic Service - Website for £95 per annum

Diesel House Studios will be building web sites for artists  for £95 per annum. (subject to terms and conditions below)

As part of this program Diesel House will be actively targeting galleries from across the UK to visit all the artists on the Diesel House site.  The intention is to generate significant sales for the artists registered with us and to create exhibition and commission opportunities for them.  Even artists who already have their website will benefit as Diesel House attracts several thousand visitors a month who will then be directed and encouraged to go directly to your site.

NB Diesel House Studios does not take commission on online sales where the customer deals directly with the aritst

Enhanced Service - Website for £225 per annum

For those artists that wish to generate even greater interest, we are going to link with Galleries Magazine (www.artefact.co.uk) who in the last year attracted 3 million hits.

Diesel House will arrange to have you also registered on the Galleries Magazine website.  You will be listed as an artist in your own right, and the link on the site will link back to your site at Diesel House.

 

Sales Via Online Galleries

Diesel House will not take any commissions from artists for online sales and will provide all contact details on the site so that the artist can deal directly with the customer.

Some artists do not want however, to deal with the public. On these occasions, Diesel House will take a commission of 40% on the sale price.
