jeez 800 views and only 54 votes! everybody wants to watch but no answer eheh

It's only mid-month. I would guess that answers will change by the end of April. For what it's worth, mine is $3.10 but I've only got 100 images there.

Update: Up to $3.53 with one week to go.

Been submitting at DT for one year as of this week. Average is 0.78, BME in January 1.09, currently at .68 for April but reckon I will do better than that - DL's always seem to pick up in the second half of the month.

Less than an hour after writing....now back up to .78 for the month thanks to an 11 credit sale on a level 3 image. The power of positive thinking.

DT has completely died for me this month, just 3 sales and subs too, I can't remember it being so slow.

cathyslife · « **Reply #29 on:** April 18, 2011, 10:41 »

I am currently at $1.57, with a yearly average of $1.78.

How do I change my vote? I'm back up over $2 thanks to the credit update on Monday (and some actual credit sales, of course)... Seems like you should wait until the end of the month for an April poll

Nice

Consider me updated... I have to say that I'm seeing a lot of sales now in the 10-13 credit range where before I had a lot of 7-9 credit sales. The effect of adding the level 0 is that for someone with a DPI of 5 (average file was level 2), you are now averaging closer to what used to be level 3. As long as it doesn't push too many buyers to subs or other sites it seems great.

pancaketom · « **Reply #35 on:** April 21, 2011, 12:02 »

I've had a rash of subs and level 0 lately. For once I am glad to get a sub (when they are a level 0) .35 is better than .24. I suppose a level 0 med or large would be for more though.

Pixart · « **Reply #36 on:** April 21, 2011, 17:33 »

I feel like there is a real push from the bottom of the portfolio recently. I've had some sales that I can't even remember taking.

Beach Bum · « **Reply #37 on:** April 21, 2011, 20:54 »

2.25 for me. Good month.

fotografer · « **Reply #38 on:** April 22, 2011, 04:24 »

If the easter break doesn't ruin it then I am on line to have a BME in both dls and earnings.

Freezingpictures · « **Reply #39 on:** April 22, 2011, 06:28 »

$ 3.16 for me. Last month was $3.
It is almost getting better each month.

Excellent, I forgot to say that mine is at 2.96 at the moment

luissantos84 · « **Reply #41 on:** April 22, 2011, 07:21 »

now at $0.68 but still under performing this month, the only agency down this month

It's not really a meaningful question with DT because everybody's average will vary depending on what levels their images are at and how steadily they add to the collection. So there are too many different factors at work for anyone to be able to draw any conclusions from rpd data.

Correct. Not to mention that volume of sales is a big factor too. If I have 10 sales this month and they are mostly credit sales, or include an EL or TIFF sale, then my RPD will be much higher than someone who has 1,000 sales that are a mix of subs and PPD. I would still rather be the guy with the 1k sales.

All probably true, but still interesting information to share.
