July really surprised me this time. Normally it is not a good month, but this time it was one of my best months. July had an increase of 23% compared to June and a 30% increase compared to July 2013. My best four agencies were: Shutterstock, DepositPhotos, Zazzle, iStockPhoto

I had a solid month too which is always nice in the summer.

u know u could make a lot more money (or extra money if u r already making money in stock photography), making these pie charts ,etc working as a temp in accounting, marketing , finance, etc ??? no more hoops to jump ;)

I think the most surprising thing about the pie chart is that anyone makes money on Zazzle, let alone 11% of your income! :)
I see one product has over 5000 reviews, so even more respect!

If you have a small portfolio and spend a lot of time to upload to every agency than the most unusual results are possible, the downside of this tactic is that your overall income remains very small regardless how impressive a pie chart may look like. But maybe the referals make it worth.

I've only got experience with Zazzle , my experience there is not good, hence my surprise.

What was bad about your experience with Zazzle?

Odd month. Alamy was the big winner, followed by DT, SS, iS. iS had the best RPI.
-
30% better than June but i think thats mainly because June was one of my worst ever on shutterstock (which is my highest earning site).
-
Decent month for being July - 11% over June and 15% over July 2013.
Breakdown by agency:
Stocksy 68%
SS 19%
FT 7%
DT 6%
