I just started uploading a few to FOT a few days ago. There is one I just uploaded on Thurs, already approved, has one view, and already one sale! Has to be a new record for me.

It is am image of a splash on a pool of chocolate.

Just a note of encouragement for everyone out there. It does happen.

Just checked again - new agency you know, so will check it a few times a day for the first week to get a feel for what goes on there. It's now 2 views, 2 sales

18 files total are online. Well that's certainly never happened before.

So far very good things to say about them, and my approvals have been very quick.

Yes! sometimes I have had images with very low views selling.

Believe or not for a few times I had files with no views but one or two sales, how? dont ask me, I have no idea

I think this is due to some buyer maybe in a hurry, who just just gets the "hover" over view and doesn't actually click on the image.

Hard to tell about views. Many end up in lightboxes and sales result much later.

Odd thing is with Snap Village, I had two sales recently. One with 3 views and one with 2 views! The only other sale I've had there was one with 93 views!!?? That may be because their marketing has just started.
