The Change from High Street Photograph Printing to Internet Sites

July 8, 2009 by DigitalCamerasInfo 

Children’s photographs have always been cherished memories. In the past, companies such as Boots the Chemist have known that their stores have benefitted from the walk by shoppers that photograph processing generates. Shoppers are vital to any town centre business – so shops have paid generously for prime high street outlets.

In the latest times however, the market in photograph developing has increased dramatically – the development of modern technology in cameras joined with the continual decline in price of suitable personal computing and programs that allow professional results has jolted the industry forward quickly. Add in the popularity of the internet and it was only a matter of time until a service launched that is not only better value and less hassle than taking your photographs to the high street shop to get them developed.

The market leader in the internet printing sector is undoubtedly Snap-Fish, a division of HP. Snap-Fish provide a incredible free trial which means you can get thrity free photos developed without making a purchase, and the results are impressive. Commonly the delivery turnaround is also extremely quick – the website might quote your pictures will be delivered to you within a fortnight, but in our research, this is more common to be just a few days.

Get your free photos here.

Even when you have used up your free offer, the pricing is very reasonable – only 9p per print, or 7p if you purchase a block of credits and use them as you need them. Even the postage is reasonably priced – just 99p a order.

Further new products have also arisen out of this fledgling company, such as oversize prints, and photo books. They make incredible gifts for relatives, particularly grandparents who traditionally have revisited their photo albums time and time again.

Why not dig out the camera now and take a few up to date pictures of your relatives? All you have to do is save them to the Snap-Fish site and you can even get your initial 30 photographs for nothing.
