I don't use business cards anymore. I use 4x6 photo prints. I make them in photoshop (like a regular 4 x6 picture but with promo info with pictures). I swap pictures in and out as needed. I can get a batch of 50 or 100 photo cards printed in an hour cheap and I can tailor the card to the crowd I'm shooting with on the fly. For example, if I'm shooting an urban event, I'll make sure all the pictures are urban themed. If I am going to a formal affair, I'll change all the pictures to formal pictures, and so forth. With business cards, I am stuck with all thousand of them until they run out.

I advise against printing your own. I did that for a while and when I would give the card to someone, it looked cheap and amateurish. Didn't really compliment me very well. Also, mine looked like crap. Plus it is a big expense. You have to factor in the cost of the paper and ink.Not worth it. I used businesscards24.com. I was pleased with the results and got 500 for like 10 bucks. They came fairly quickly too. I had to opt for expedited shipping cause I needed them for an event I was shooting. The shipping costed me more than the cards, lol.

Business card basics:

• Include your logo
• Keep the font between 8 and 12 points
• Keep it simple
• Stick to your one specialty, not a list of genres. Less is more.
• Contact information
• Proofread, check spelling, then have someone else proofread and check the spelling. (this step is critical. Spaces are required after commas. )

How to make your card different:

• Plain white is not the only option
• check into finishing options
• non-standard size or shape, but small enough to fit in a wallet

Try AladdinPrint.com. There based out of somewhere in asia, but their quality is amazing, prices are epic, and superfast free shipping. Idk about uk, but I've used them a bunch. Order the free sample kit. Get an idea of what they have.

I use moo.com and I really like the cards. I prefer the regular card stock over the eco friendly green cards. They are heavier and provide a nicer image.

I just got 5,000 double sided, full color cards from vistaprint for $90. Can't complain about that price, it's like 1.8 cents per card. And that includes shipping. The cards aren't the greatest quality, but they are good enough for my purposes.
