FASO Promises Artist Websites as Easy as Instagram
FASO, a website builder designed specifically for artists, has been rebuilt with a mobile-friendly interface that allows adding new artworks in three steps: upload an image with title, size, medium, and price; choose availability; and publish. Founder Clint Watson argues that most artist websites fail because they are not easy to update, and FASO prioritizes simplicity so artists can focus on making art rather than web design. The platform includes built-in marketing tools and aims to provide a permanent, professional home for artworks that artists control, contrasting with social media posts that feed AI training and disappear into scroll. FASO offers a 30-day free trial with no credit card required.
