Title: Fotolia subs going crazy??
Post by: HughStoneIan on August 02, 2009, 17:39
Anyone else experiencing a sudden spike in sub sales at FT?  Is it just a part of their best match changes?  15 out of my last 20 sales were subs, whereas about the 30 previous to those were by far mostly PPD.

Things are going pretty much the way they always went here...

Normal for me.  DT was however very bad last month (80% subs).

Same for me (both normal on FT and mainly subs on DT).

Yes, the change has been hugely significant for me.

In terms of credits earned I peaked in February with an average sale price of 1.22 credits. Since then my sales have risen most months but credits earned have slowly reduced.

Last month (July) I actually had my best month for images sold but at an average sale price of 0.77 credits per sale. It appears to be getting steadily worse too __ so far this month I'm on an average sale price of just 0.63 credits per sale. That's a drop of nearly 50% in 5 months.

Subs are the same. No increase, no decrease!

I've definitely seen an increase in sub sales at FT.  Also at DT.   

I am also getting a fair amount of daily sales through Fotolia's new XL sub model.

Seems like it is just following the inevitable course - as volume buyers look to save money more of them will be drawn to sub plans.

My subs spiked...did you know that Pixmac is an affiliate of Fotolia.  I had a 60 cent sub sale from them.
