Thursday and Friday I find to be better than a usual weekend but Saturday and Sunday will probably be very low.

Yes of course, if people aren't working then they aren't buying images.

are most countries public holiday on friday and monday?

In the states, some companies have off Friday, but very few, if any on Monday. If not for the holiday weekend, would have been a BME for me. Still possible, but unlikely

Monday is a public hol in Australia, and school hols too in some parts.

Norway, and probably lots of europe have quite a few easter holidays. Thurs, Fri and Monday are all holidays and lots of people take Mon-Wed off (of last week) so they have a 10 days holiday.

Actually, I just had 3 sales, and it's Saturday! I NEVER had weekend sales on SS. Strange...but can't complain!

Also remember that in the US it isn't just Easter, it is Spring Break season. Parents often take off when their kids do. Most spring breaks are over, but not everyone will be back to work yet.

In many southern California cities spring break starts this weekend

hi all,

try to understand more..for subscriptions model business.. Shutterstock won't get affected by holidays since everything had been paid monthly.. but contributors will get affected? since only when there are downloads, we got commission.. on holidays, the buyers will just waive their downloads per day..

am i correct?

And this happens because they are too cheap.

I had a very (very) bad friday and then an above average sunday.
Today nothing yet...

Not all the world celebrates Easter today.
And a great part of it never celebrates Easter.

I had my best Sunday in months today.

gillian vann · « **Reply #15 on:** April 01, 2013, 00:31 »

yeah, I'm waiting for the April Fools..... a nice solid end to the month.

Seems like eater we has ended at SS. I had some very bad days, with sunday selling absolutely zero. Only one year in this, but Christmas was far better...hope now the sales will continue.
