If you're just selling regular retail stuff that can be bought anywhere... probably not. You post pics of your warez like that on Flickr and you'll probably just get abuse. On the other hand, if what you're selling has inherent content value -- if the pictures themselves are interesting -- then, sure. You probably will get interest and maybe some traffic and purchases. Because people who like to buy interesting stuff also like to look at it. Subject matter that interests us is often medium-independent. @Joni: I think it all depends on what the pictures are of and what you’re selling.

Should I post photos/images on say 'Flickr' or just posted them on my website site. Would posting images on Flickr lead more people to find my web site and maybe buy something?
