SS 37%
up 10% from December
down 18% from BME in June

IS 17%
up 12% from December
down 54% from BME in March

DT 14% BME 1 EL
up 30% from December
up 9% from BME in June

FT 11%
down 4% from December
down 15% from BME in September

StockXpert 8%
down 30% from December
down 34% from BME in April

BigStock 5%
up 42% from December
down 22% from BME in March

LO 4% 1 EL
up 100% from December
down 29% from BME in July

123RF 4%
down 20% from December
down 36% from BME in November

These percentages could change with 123RF making a dramatic increase, because I have three EL sales that mysteriously went missing. 

I'm also with FP and CanStockPhoto, but the earnings are so minuscule that I don't track them.  Only sites that gross $50+ (the average monthly payout) at least every other month are tracked.

IS   51% (BME, Up over triple from Dec)
SS   33% (BME, Up almost double due to EL)
FT   7% (BME, Up by 25%)
DT   4% (Down by over half)
StockXpert   2% (BME, Up almost double)
BigStock   1% (Down by half)
123RF   1% (Up by 50%)
SV   2% (Up by Double)
LO   <1% (Dying)
AB   0% (Dead)
FP   0% (Dead)

Jan 08 is BME by almost double driven mostly by Istock. Istock is absolutely rocking. SS is doing very well. FT is growing slowly. StockXpert is finally waking up. The rest I'm beginning to wonder if it's worth my time uploading to anymore.

EDIT: A couple of late corrections after more sales

I am thinking the same that except SS, IS, FT, StockXpert , 123rf and DT uploading to other sites is a waist of time for me.

SS 60%
the rest: IS, FT, StockXpert , 123rf and DT.

Jan=BME (+ 10% compared to previous BME=Nov 07)
300+ images

iStock                     45,9% (BME)
shutterstock            15,5%
digitalstock.de          12,5%(BME, German site)
panthermedia            7,9% (BME)
dreamstime               7,7%
stockxpert                7,1%
other (bs,ft,123rf)      3,2%


As said by Nazdravie: "istock is absolutely rocking"!!!

Very disappointing results and declines at dreamstime, stockxpert, shutterstock.

Surprising good resuls at digitalstock and panthermedia despite low number of uploads (so far <90 images).

Results are something to think about regarding future upload strategies...(see also thread "are things going well in microstock")

Overall a BME, even though it didn't look like that at the beginning of the month. Overall my earnings increased by 36% compared to December 07. Today marks my 1st anniversary of being in microstock - so I do not have any comparative data to years before. But the increase is right about where Yuri predicted it to be. Wink

SS 35,0% (BME helped by one EL)
FT 29,0% (BME)
IS 27,1% (a little disappointing, number of downloads was a 3rd less than in December, income was better though)
DT 8,4% (BME - but I am still building my portfolio over there)
LO 0,5% (after 4 months of not selling anything - I just had another sale - but I wonder if it is worth uploading - the return for uploading at DT is much better).

I have not voted yet, but will, I tried this time to vote more than on just earnings, but this will not work somehow with Internet Explorer. So I will wait until I have time to do it on the other computer with another browser. Maybe you can fix this?

I hit my goal of $200 in January!   Smiley  It was a fantastic comeback after the slow holiday start.

Total $200.86

Shutterstock 45%  BME
iStockPhoto  21%
Dreamstime 11%   BME
Fotolia 10%   BME
BigStock 7%
StockXpert  4%
123RF  2%
LuckyOliver  0.1%
FeaturePics  0%


Shutterstock earnings were driven by a massive upload campaign on my part.  I added 65 images to my portfolio in January.  It is not likely I will add nearly as many in February, so I expect earnings to take a substantial hit.

So close, Ldambies, so close!  February is the month you break through.

Honestly if you would have asked me a few days ago, I would have said I would finish around $196-$197.  It took a lot of sales the last 2 days to get past $200.
