Title: How do the sites perform...
Post by: leszek on April 11, 2008, 06:41
In my case - it looks like this (income, per day, normalized to 1):

SS                     1
StockXpert                   0.33
Mostphotos        0.27
Dreamstime        0.17
Fotolia              0.11
123RF               0.09
BigStock           0.07

I do not even mention Crestock or Canstock - since I deleted my accounts there.

It looks like most of the big 6 are not performing very well in comparison to SS...

You don't have istockphoto on there, they are best earner for many.

You'll find if you don't keep feeding SS a constant supply of images every week, your downloads go way down...

i don't like Crestock either. they told me 4 shots were blurred and out of focus. these same 4 shots were accepted by other sites of the Big 6.

maybe the reviewer's eyes are blurred, not the photos LOL

For a very, very young and small port (March #'s, month 2 overall, trending is recent performance)

SS - 1  Declining (even with daily uploading, first goose egg ever yesterday)
IS - 0.16 Strong growth
DT - 0.14 Moderate/Strong growth
FT - 0.12 Flatlining.  Adding images does nothing
BigStock - 0.04 Growing

Can't get in to StockXpert, no sales yet at 123RF, port too small to yet bother with the little sites.
