I don´t do nothing but I don´t spend many time there.. but from what I see is MASSIVE twitter/facebook spamming all over with as many people following/followers, great no??

Veterinary surgery! 

I only started "advertising" about a month ago -- Twitter, Facebook fan page, talking about it here and at Shutterstock.  Here's a breakdown of where my hits came from during the past month.

Surprise!  thats my real profession. Was active as a Vet ( still am for friends horses and dogs) for many years alongside with photography ( my entire life).

that´s nice

Thanks! 

Sales are coming along slowly but steadily...just increased my inventory from 500 to 1600+ over the past week, so we'll see what happens.  I sold an iPhone case a couple of days ago within hours after it published for sale and immediately thought of Helix being all skeptical about selling iPhone cases.  LOL 

Mine range from 15 to 40%. I may have some older stuff at 10% only.

Would a US$1 more in a US$20 item refrain you from buying it? I don't think so, if you have what the buyer wants (just like in stock photography).

Also, as someone said before, Zazzle often offers discounts, so the final price - and your share of it - may be much less.

So a couple of weeks into it with Zazzle I've got just 1 sale, a small button that netted me $0.15. So I'm still very skeptical that I can make any decent amount of money with the site, but I'll give it time. Based on low numbers of views, though, and just a single small sale, I'm not inclined to put too much time into this.

Two observations I've had with Zazzle: 1.) Something is up with the Views stats, because the one hting I've sold still says 0 Views. 2.) I'm noticed a ton of products featuring images that obviously aren't owned by the sellers. Things with photos of celebrities, politicians, etc. How do people get away with this stuff? Isn't there any copyright enforcement on Zazzle?

I think more people should try to sell their stock images direct instead of relying on making cents selling via small revenue sites, it takes a bit of hard work but it's ultimately more rewarding.

I have never promote my store.. never! I spent there like 2 weekends  (15hours tops) while watching TV and such.. got around 100$ for 2 years

15 cents on 31 products in two weeks.  It's a start, isn't it?  I'm wondering why this cute freaky little blue creature isn't being featured on more stuff than just a button.  He'd make a really cute kids' t-shirt. 

 

After suffering through two week's-plus worth of Weiner jokes, that's pretty good.  LOL

I've resisted the urge but, get a real job? Oh wait the message says designing, and I don't even do stick figurines, so what do I know?

Micro is my 4th source of income, I think that's appropriate attention and effort. I enjoy it and now and then I actually have something inspired and shoot it. The rest of the time, it's CrapStock and snapshots. Someone wants to pay me 25c to $2 for that, I'll take it.

By the way, I found a Ten dollar bill on the ground on Sunday. Crowd of people walking along a path and I bent over to pick it up, the rest didn't notice it. That's more than I made on PP last month. So my theory that I could make more picking up change on the ground may not be as whacked out as it sounds?

I've had two crafts and art types tell me how much they liked Etsy, so that's my vote for the future. I don't know how it does with photos?
