Hi guys

I am currently taking the time to upload my video content to more platforms to (hopefully) increase my sales. Let me just thank the members of this forum so far for providing good information and recommendations already! However I have a few questions about other companies.

So far I have been a member of Shutterstock for a long time, and my 200 clip portfolio does pretty well, with average sales of 250 usd a month

I signed up for pond5 earlier this year, and at 100 usd a month they are alright.

In the last few weeks I have uploaded to fotolia (a few sales), videoblocks, 123rf & motionelements (to recent to get any sales).

Now, due to their commission I haven't uploaded to istock or videohive.

I wish to upload to dreamstime but they are saying no more uploads for the summer.


So my question is... what's next? Do you have any recommendations for VIDEO stock sites that have descent sales?

Thanks :)

It looks like you've found them all already :) Try to apply on Dissolve but it seems they are not accepting new members. I may be wrong though.

Thank you Irina, I was thinking of Dissolve but read mixed feedback on them. Had any descent sales from them yourself?

Two friends of mine have applied there recently and both failed :) There were clips of quite high commercial value - time lapses, super slomo, aerials, released lifestyles... I guess they just have stopped accepting new members.

If your work is on Video Blocks Dissolve forces your content pricing to match theirs.  However you will only then get 30% of the $49 at Dissolve.  I would not support them for that single reason.
