NFT which is a part of blockchain technology has been getting much buzz in the media in the way it enriches art creators Selling an NFT relies much on the ability of the art creator to market their pieces and let potential customers see their values,

The journey to minting your first piece starts with getting a crypto wallet and registering on an NFT marketplace. NFTs are digital arts that are showcased on online marketplaces called exchanges for people who appreciate them to buy.

Here are the 5 steps to covert your pic or art into money on NFT.

1. Sync your wallet: The first step you need to take is to go and open a crypto wallet and connect it to your OpenSea account, the NFT marketplace you want to sell your photos on. To do this, login into your account and click on the “Create” button in the top corner to get yourself started. It should be noted that other marketplaces have similar prompts on their site that are similar to OpenSea’s own. As soon as your wallet is connected, give a brief introduction about yourself so people can know you.

2. Creating your first piece: Still on your OpenSea account, click on “Create” you will be asked to upload your file. Different files like Jpegs, and MP4 are allowed. There would be boxes where you will be asked to describe your file. You will also need to choose which network you want to mint your NFT on. Popular ones are Ethereum and an Ethereum-based protocol called Polygon (MATIC). Once you click complete after following all the procedures, your first NFT is minted. Congrats!

3. Fund your wallet : Remember the wallet you connected in step 1? Make sure you have some money in it. In this case, some eth. This is important as making any sale on the blockchain requires that you pay some fees known as gas fees. Before even selling anything at all, deposit some money in your wallet. Do not worry about how much the fees would cost, OpenSea system will do the calculation for you.

4.Selling your NFT : After you have successfully minted your NFT, go to the marketplace and click on “Sell” on the page your piece is on. From there, pick the type of sale you want between a time auction or selling at a fixed price. After this, the marketplace will also tell you the fees you would be paying for the sale. OpenSea charges around 2.5% of the selling price.

5.The power of networking Minting and putting your NFT up for sale is not going to give your automatic money. You need to network within the NFT community and share your collection with people. The more popular your works are, the higher possibility of getting someone interested in it. The downside is you may spend much minting an NFT and not get someone to buy it at all.
