Could this be why they are disliked? showed to me by an old-timer friend!

Last week.  Monday:  172-00
                  Tuesday:     4.56
              Wednesday:    4.56
               Thursday:      5.32
               Friday:          5.32

Coincidence??  could be but not week after week after week!

Precisely. But you've only shown us one week. So your case is rather weak.

On going thing month after month! hardly any difference on patterns at all. Same with me although I have a bit more luck. My sales-pattern have been the same for over a year.

But you're not publishing the numbers, are you?

what numbers? I showed his numbers, my numbers are a bit higher but the same patters, one gigantic day in the week followed by four extremely similar low numbers. Been like it for over a year now, exactly the same pattern. Im not alone you know there are total of over 50 of us always comparing in the end of the month! and the same thing....capped earnings for some of us!

I'm suspicious because you have had plenty of chances to be that specific in the past, but you never have. And you're not even showing your own numbers, you're showing someone else's.

Fishy.

I'm not seeing a lot of love for Shutterstock right now.
Their customer service is a  " >:("  For example, I've tried to ask for my own stats but they answer like robots. I hate that!

Contributor support is among the worse of all agencies. Slow and unhelpful most of the times. But to be honest it has always been like that since the beginning. A few years back it would have been the only thing I could point as a negative about SS.
