Hi. I H have been accepted on Robertharding. The question is, is it worth the time and upload on this agency? Seems very smallish one. Thanks

Hi check Alexandre's webpage https://brutallyhonestmicrostock.com

I've seen on his website, but not sure whenever is worth to upload or no. Seems like individual website that distribute images on other agencies.

Maybe the guys can write some feedback about that agency. Sadly, don't know how to tag him here

Why don't you ask Robert Harding for guidance what they would ike to have from what you can provide? If they are a smaller agency, you might benefit from direct contact with the team.

Congrats on being accepted.

Seems they are the same as blackbox. Not sure whenever it's worth the time to upload or no.

Blackbox has a gigantic community wih people regularly posting their income. Makes it very easy to see that serious uploaders are slowly getting into fulltime income territory with thousands of dollars a month.

Does Robert Harding have a huge, active contributor community with thousands of people?

Well, I don't know. But with the low sales, I can't see the future giving my content to the middle man. Like blackbox, or wirestock, I've seen some people including YouTubers promoting blackbox, but to be honest I don't think that will work in long run.

That's why I wanted to know if Robertharding works the same.


I like to manage everything myself.

I don't quite understand why you applied if you don't want to work with a distributor. Seems like a waste of time for both them and you.

Also all agencies also distribute via partners, including many api integrations. All my video content on vimeo comes from pond5 etc...istock/getty sends my content for fractions of pennies to connect partners...Even stocksy distributes via Adobe premium.

If you want full control, then perhaps selling from your own site is the best solution.

Best of luck with your journey.

Congrats on being accepted. I've tried twice only to fail twice. I've heard they make nice money on RH due to be unique like yourself. I am forced to submit my average images to SS to get that $.10 per image.

Hi,

I have experience with RH. I'll just let facts speak for themselves and you can make a decision for yourself.

I've been with RH since mid-2018 and currently have a port of 534 images.

https://www.robertharding.com/alexandrerotenberg/

Since that time I've earned net $1,700 (rounded there since I get paid in GBP and depends on exchange) on 234 downloads for an average return per download of net $7.26. For comparison purposes I've earned an average of 63cents download at SS and $7.88 at Alamy.

Am I happy with the above? Not sure, it's not much but then again my port there is still relatively small. One reason why it's not larger is since I send them my "best" work and they traditionally reject quite a bit.

Hope that helps!

Nice work. Judging from what you have accepted, they like travel, scenic, locations, nature and that kind of subject?

Oh I looked:

Images must be no older than 3 years.

Photos must be submitted on an image exclusive basis and not be represented by any other stock agency, this includes sister images or similar's

Yes, they are exclusive. They distribute to some 80 agencies.

They want travel...can be editorials as well.

Nice friendly agency, I had great sales with them back in 2018 (especially via Getty) but unfortunately the prices really crashed particularly during the past 3 years.

Any updates on this? I'm in the process of possibly applying to submit work there, but I can't find very much info on if others are successful!
