Smile Question from beginner

I am pretty new at photography and up till now its just been a hobby. Ive recently been asked for copies of some of my landscape photos so Im wanting to get something set up so others can buy them. (ive been just giving them away) Also thought it might be a way I can raise money for The American Cancer Society/Relay for Life team. I found a site ShootProof.com that seems like it should work for me. So Im wondering if anyone has used it, and Im also wondering where some of you get your prints done. ? And wondering if anyone would be willing to guide me to the steps I need to take to get this going. ? Thank you!

I've never heard of ShootProof.com, but there are a lot of sites out there. I used to work at Printroom: Web Storefronts, Online Sales, and Digital Printing for Professional Photographers and you can open an account and sell images at your own prices there.

Zenfolio and Smugmug are also good, from what I hear tell.

Zenfolio is great! IF you're registered as a business. You can't collect on the money in your account unless you've registered a business EIN with them. Not sure about smugmug
