another little move up, although sales volume is less.

pos 595

nice!  :)

the number of sales is already above last December but 0 video sales this month so far.

and I'm also stuck with real videos and photos at the moment,my Nikon DSLR's charger is broken!  :(

it doesn't cost much but I just changed the battery of the car,which I managed to find for 74,that is more or less a month's subscription to MIdjourney,not that I'm that interested,I don't think I'll make any more subscriptions to MJ in the near future,or if ever again.

for the moment I'll just continue with the AI,next year I'll buy the charger,also because it's cold in my studio and then I have to turn on the heating there too and then it's too much!  :D

Slow week.
129 Downloads / 3.580 position. Dropped from 2.820 position.

I hope the new reviewed content will bring some new sales.

Congratulations to all of you who are doing well!  :)

for me better week than last week,the 5th best ever in terms of number of sales so far,there's still tomorrow.

I'm also pleased that a particular Christmas content sold good,I worked a lot on it,and at least I can be satisfied with this.

generally my difference between one week and another is very minimal,in terms of number of sales with a very slight constant growth over time.

I also rarely have strong surges,which can triple and more my usual earnings,but these are rather rare events.

I've also noticed how a new indexing technique is starting to get noticed,but clearly I've been indexing content for almost 7 years now,I must have learned something!  ;)

It's really important to index content properly!

someone said there can't be two heavens,I don't know if that's true!  :)

I think for 4300 files that is an excellent result.

Also it takes files time to get discovered, picked up, lightboxed and then downloaded for a project.

I am also working on spring/summer themes, but today I started analysing the available video content on Adobe. After the holidays I will do the same at all the other large video agencies and then move to look at smaller, more specialized agencies.

Video, with a normal camera, not ai, will be a major theme for me.

Congrats, impressive results, did you reached same level of income compared with last year?

Yoy I increased my income on Adobe by around 80%. I added roughly 3700 files, mostly ai.

Every month was an increase until November. November was zero growth and December will probably be 20% less than last year.

So I am lower than what I was hoping for, but the overall trend is good.

Like I said before, focus next year will be back to the camera, real photos, real video and a lot less ai.

But I have another usable 20k ai images for processing, mostly illustrations, which I will try to add.

Also will try to get better with ai people but it is very hard work. Better to do real people shootings.

Will be interesting to see what happens with the other agencies and especially video if I start "activating" by uploads.

Unfortunately, sales have now dropped even further. Only a little more than half of the downloads from last week.

70 downloads / rank 2,410. The start of the year is going to be a brutal crash landing. The new images have an extremely slow start.

I need to look for new niches and hope for Easter.

But next year I will create more niche content for X-Mas and will be even better prepared since it's really the cash $$$ time.

same here,less sales this week but the rank has increased quite a bit,precisely because this is the slowest week of the year due to the Christmas holidays,so in general we are all selling less than usual,and even a few sales increase the rank.

This year I even managed to sell on Christmas Day,something that had never happened before.

recovery begins on January 2nd,and clearly from January 6th we begin to return to normality.

I'm currently at about 70% more sales this month and about 50% more earnings compared to December 2023.

This December was by far the month in which I uploaded the most in almost 7 years,much more than usual.

I'm trying to finish my current project so I can move on to the next one,I also have several things in mind for Easter and I have to hurry because it's starting to get late.

too many things to do and too little time!  :D

Glad to hear your December is going well. My December will probably be 15-20% less than Dec 23. The only month in this year which will be lower than last year.

My position has plummeted to 21400 which is the lowest I've seen it this year and was more often below 10000 for most of 2024. My earnings for the week are > $57 which given the position is really not too bad. I just noticed too that my earnings on Adobe are actually 10.7% higher in Dec 2024 compared to Dec 2023 so wasn't a bad month after all. Also my overall combined earnings for the month is 10.8% higher in Dec 2024 compared to Dec 2023.

So the difference between pos 21k and pos 521 is 110 dollars?

Not that much actually. Of course this is an ultraslow time of the year.

My ranking actually improved some without a further sale so ranking might not of updated at the time I posted above. But in terms of sales volume, 8 vs 257 is quite a huge difference but the dollars maybe not so much. I think if someone with a lot of video made 257 sales they'd probably be having more to celebrate. I'm right in the middle of an unprecedented, historic, apocalyptic, earth-shaking, momentous (I looked up a thesaurus) summer, holiday, Christmas, new year's slump here.  ;D

thank you  :) ,but in reality I am not very satisfied with the results,because 50% more than a small sum is still a small sum!

to be at least acceptable it should be at least 150% more in earnings each month compared to the same month of the previous year,that is,in January 2025 I should make at least 150% more than in January 2024 and so for all the months!

and I repeat,150% more in earnings would be barely acceptable,given that a year has passed.

throughout this year I have more or less gone with 40-70% more in sales number every month compared to the same month last year.

anyway ok,for the moment I'll keep this 50% more,I will try to create more people content,the problem is that being able to do everything takes a long time.

What should I do?Should I start being an AI spammer too?  :D

I'll see how it goes,if I can grow quickly by continuing doing things well,even in indexing ok,if not I'll start being a spammer too,generate,upscale,AI indexing,without even looking at the contents and go!

I'll evaluate how next year starts,but I'm already framing a pattern I don't like.

we'll see next year I hope I'm wrong.

It is your call, but I really like your people content. With good research...

I have managed to upload 50 videos in 5 days, mostly editorial.

Really enjoy using my camera again.

My weekly rank now down to 613.
