Photo District News
PDN contacted Bill to interview him about his [then] self-designed website for the three-part article Web Portfolios That Work - William Moree: the Middle Ground by Jay Mallin.

In response, Robert Mirani wrote in Coincidences: Discussions on the art and craft of photography:
“PDN's October issue also recognizes a variety of commercial photographers whose websites and other promotional activity are distinctive in the industry. I liked William Moree's self-designed personal and commercial websites -- even though the "America" portfolios are extremely worn photographic terrain, Moree (mostly) sidesteps the cliches and makes very nice use of the rectangular image in his most memorable compositions...most contemporary photographers tend to use the square these days with the theme and subject matter.”
