Title: How was your August?
Post by: steheap on September 01, 2018, 19:22

Am I the first to report this month. A pretty good month for me, helped by an amazing $79 on Canstock and two big print sales on Fine Art America.

15th consecutive month where I have exceeded the earnings in the same month in the previous year.

Not a bad month with SS doing well but only because of high value sales dodged a bullet maybe...Adobe trending slowly upward. The smaller sites continuing their decline. For me SS/Abode/I stock and the occasional boost from Alamy make them the only sites that are realistically worth any of my time.

Impressive results, Master Steve!

August was a formality...now onto the business end of the year to finish off with a bang!

August was pretty horrible with SS and most other agencies at 2012 levels.  FT and Canva the only two above last year's average, and neither was great.  I suppose that's what happens when you hardly upload anything for a couple of years.  Return per accepted image at FT is now approaching that at SS so need to think more about uploading there.

My August pie (based on reported earnings) and my yearly graphs, based on actual Paypal payments.

Very good. BME on FT/AS. 2nd BME on SS made possible by some large last day sales.

August is usually a bad month for me. This August is an exception. :)
