I was selling one or two per month, then I decided to lower all the prices at $2.70 to check if it would make a difference.  It did.  November became my best month with 3 sales.  December  was my best month ever with 5 sales (3 in large format and 2 in smaller format), which at that price is the equivalent of selling 34 pictures at SS.  Although the sales show low numbers, I  expect them to grow.

dbvirago, what is your selling price at FP?

There are 2 options to change prices globally.  Go to 'Account Settings', and then:

- either "Set flat price for ALL your images"

-or "Set percentage of prior prices for ALL your images"

Setting a reasonable lower price and selling more feels good.  It's also a way for FP to stay competitive in the stock market.   I also like their attitude towards the photographers.

Not many sales there for me either, but, ya gotta love the site.  Set your own prices?  I've heard of people setting their prices up to $200.  I don't know if they sell, but   Most my prices are from 1 to 5, with an ocassional 8, I've sold at 6. 

I think, or maybe better, wish, all sites operated on the Featurepics format.

yes i have sold a few at Featurepics since i join. i am happy cos i get 70% of the payout. I think with time, it may work here. They are friendly and they take suggestions, so with such positive attitude i would say the future is good for them. I set my prices mainly betwwn $4-$5 with resize options.

i sold one 2 days back after Long time (since august also) ... i have 7 downloads only there

Only four sales in three months. I've priced my photos from 5-7 mostly. I don't think there's much point in setting the prices much lower as long as the re-sizing option is used. When customers find the image they need, one or two dollars extra won't matter that much. The question, as always, is if they can market the site properly. That would be nice.

Unfortunatelly this is the only one where I've never sold 1 pic but keep uploading "against my good sense".
I don't know if it's my pictures, something I'm doing wrong or they don't really sell too much. My "huge" earnings are on the $0,02 thanks to a referal.

As it looks this is not a mass seller site. So I went there and priced all my images at 30, and submitted one collection with my underwater pictures with a nice discount of 40%.
Maybe I'll get some luck like this who knows...

If it happens to sell something with this new aproach I'll report it here.

I have been selling 3-4 pictures a month for the past few months I am with Featurepics so I am quite pleased. It's not a lot but with 70%, I get $1 - $3 a sale cos my photos are set between $4-5 with resize options.

I have great expectations of this site and will continue to upload cos they give the most payout. Gracey mentioned that she has received a few payouts from Featurepics so I am hopeful about it. 

Oh and of course I love it that they listened to all my suggestions to improve the site and they took them all up and took action to enhance Featurepics according to all my suggestions. (Most site just ignored my suggestions.) So I am happy to know that quite a no. of the features there is a result of my suggestions

I just went with FP a few weeks ago, only have a handful of pix there.   I haven't noticed so many views...  However, I was pleased to see everyone of my pictures show up on page one of mutliple pages of the subjects. 
   I will continue to upload there, understanding that sales will not be typical of microsites.  Then again, when/if  I make any, they'll be nicer sales.
    Price-wise,  I went with the advice I received here,  all priced at $4.00 with sizing options.. I've got one pic priced higher.  I like the shot, if someone else likes it, maybe they'll pay the extra bucks.  If not, no loss to me.  Heck, truth is, it's selling for a quarter elsewhere....   now I think I sound like I'm 'whoring' my pix.......       

Hi!

I've been with featurepics for about 3 weeks. I uploaded my complete portfolio there (around 400 photos) which were mostly accepted and which sell well at the big 5 and the other agencies.

Didn't get a single sale from them yet. I'm considering to remove my photos from them, but at the moment I just stop uploading to them and wait - can't hurt.

All the best,
Michael

I joined the beginning of januari with approx 200 photo's and made 3 sales this month. They are priced at $5 with re-sizing option.

They are friendly, at respond fast an I like being able to incorporate my collections with them in my own website
