Product: Smug Mug Membership

Consumer: Amateur or professional photographers and those who take many photos of family and events.

The purpose of a membership at Smug Mug is the ability to store unlimited photos (no advertisements on photos), choice of albums available, secure sensitive photos with passwords, ease of use and print size and finish choices.

Pros: With membership in Smug Mug comes a sleep-well-at-night assurance that precious photos are safe and backed up not once or twice but three times and can be retrieved even if a member's personal computer crashes. That single fact makes the cost of membership worthwhile for even amateur photographers...for professionals it is just invaluable.

When friends or customers wish to view member's photographs online, they are not required to register or provide an email address as they are on many similar sites.

Smug Mug expects their members to be fanatical about their photographs and expert technical support is readily available at no additional charge.

Cons: There are no cons associated with membership in the Smug Mug membership program. It's definitely for heavy digital photography users!

Guarantee: There is no specific guarantee of satisfaction given for membership in Smug Mug. There is, however, a 14-day free trial offered before the membership fees are paid to insure satisfaction.

Value for money: The cost of membership in Smug Mug is a good value for photographers. And the three back ups of all photos makes the membership very good.
