Hi everyone!
Right now i am exclusive in istock but i have been playing around with the idea of canceling exclusivity and start submitting footages to other agencies as well. I am afraid that after latest price-increase in video side the buyers have started to leave to other agencies and it definitely affects sales. So i have to make some research before i make any decisions.

My question is-which agencies are worthy for submitting footages?
I'd definitely go on with shutterstock and pond5 as i was submitting my stuff there before i went exclusive in IS.
So how about stockxpert, interclips and motiondroops?
How is life in shutterstock and pond5? Are the contributors happy?
All feedbacks are appreciated!
Best,
Taavet

I'm very happy with Pond5 and Shutterstock. I also like Revostock (although, sales are up and down there from month to month). If you want to know about Stockxpert - I would suggest reading their video forums over there. Fotolia is going to be offering video soon (right now, you can upload, but it is not for sale yet) - so we will see how that goes

. I have some sales figures on my blog if you want to take a look http://snaprender.blogspot.com/.
