That's interesting.
Based on these numbers they have over 20,000 contributors but only about 2500 of them have over 200 sales.

Some newbie data:

User ID        200434514
Overall rank    19,648 (3 sales)

...There is one good thing about my situation: the only direction I can take from the bottom is up :-)

On DT, you can easily get similar interesting info by searching for contributors...

18'000 contributors, 60% with less than 10 downloads (!), 20% with more than 100 downloads, 3% with more than 1000 downloads.

It seems clear that in microstock, only a small percentage of contributors take it seriously  ;D

this can be only the advantage... "If you work, work hard. In that kind of work concurrency is minimum."

A bit out of topic - some statistics taken from DT (I guess the figures will be similar with FT):

Total number of contributors: 17.585
Number of contributors with portfolios of more than 100: 2,784
Number of contributors with portfolios of more than 1000: 256

This could explain why there are so "few" contributors with some serious downloads :-)

Thanks for confirming my previous post  ;)

Concerning portfolio size, I'm not sure it is a good indicator of anything useful: I've seen recently on StockXpert that in iofoto portfolio (12'000 photos), 65% haven't been downloaded at all and 25% once only... "only" 1200 pictures have been downloaded twice or more.

On the opposite side, on IS, sodafish has only 360 photos but more than 120'000 downloads!

Rozmaryna the figures you quote for DT are reflected across all the agencies.

For instance StockXpert has 4,000 photographers but only 5% of those have portfolios of more than 1,000 pictures.

80% of the income from the microstock industry is earned by 20% of the photographers (or less).

Ron Chapple is a relative newcomer to "micro"stock.  His first upload to StockXpert is March 4 of this year, so those numbers are pretty good if you ask me.  Do you know when Sodafish joined IS?  Just curious if s/he has been there for years.   120,000 downloads is pretty impressive also for only 360 online.  Exclusive?

This is probably a better wealth distribution than most countries' economies!

In Real Estate, in Ontario, Canada, same thing - 20% of the Realtors earn 80% of the income.

This is great info - with another 102 sales at current stats, I'd jump 1600 spots!  That's a good area to be in - when you're moving up quickly.  It must be hard once you get to 90th to get past 89th, 88th, etc. lol

Your rank confirm that you are serious indeed  ;)

My overall rank is 303 and my 7 days rank is 350 today but usually varies between 250 and 500... which means that I'm going the wrong way, but very slowly  :'(

Tom' s (sodafish's) stats can be a bit misleading. He is exclusive but has a great, high Google ranking site of his own that he sells his icons off. The purchaser is then directed to IStock more-or-less just to make the final payment. This combined with the sales he gets directly from IStock is what gives him such amazing results.
