Title: May 2008 Earnings per Image at FeaturePics
Post by: DanP68 on June 02, 2008, 21:20

We are trying something a little different this month from the Earnings Ratings.  Let's measure the amount of earnings per image you received at this agency during the month.

This is a pretty simple calculation.  If you had $50 in earnings and 500 images online at FeaturePics, then you earned $0.10 per image ($50/500).

For simplicity you might want to use the # of images online at the start of May.

If you just joined the agency, you should probably abstain this month until you have a full month of earnings to measure.  If we get enough participation, we might be able to better compare the earnings power of our agencies.

I voted with my micro account - 1.3c.  But my mid-macro got me 16c - although it's not a steady monthly earning.

Adelaide

It'd be interesting to see who's got 0.0000.  Besides me, that is.

It really is a shame.  Featurepics is run by good people.

You can't consider Featurepics as the other agencies as you can fix your price yourself and you are closer to a traditionnal agency there. Before Internet and the microstock explosion, according to stock photographers, it was the standard for stock agencies to bring 1$ per year per photo in average.

Somebody are apparently selling. In May, I had the sharp increase in referral incomes there.

I also agree with the above poster. FP looks more and more like a mid/combi stock operation, which means it will take more time.

Next month I will make "No Sales" an option for all of the polls, with the exception of the Big 4. If you don't have sales at the Big 4, then your portfolio is too small to be representative.

I was with Featurepics for 4 months or so, and never had a single sale.  On the other hand, I never promoted my portfolio.  I depended on the site to do my promotion and selling, which perhaps was not the best option.  But I don't have the inclination to start/promote my own site.  I'm too small a contributor at this point.
