| Convenience | Amazons excellent customer service and support. | Can be excellent and they really know the books available. | I know the books available and then allow Amazon to get them for you cheaper. |
| Specialist knowledge | Photography is not the core business. | Excellent but it has to make financial sense. | This website has been prepared from the start with you in mind. It‘s all about photography and the books are fully linked into the supplementary material. A bookshop doesn‘t care about constructing background databases on photographers or knowing six famous Mexican photographers - I do. |
| Linking | Amazon has extraordinarily powerful tools but they are not specifically targeted at photography. | Most bookshops do not have the expertise or financial resources to construct this type of linking. | I do it because I enjoy it and this is only the start - I‘m testing some very sophisticated ways of getting you better information. |
