Title: My average sale is 0.90 cents, how about you?
Post by: elliottcowand on October 30, 2024, 18:32

Across all platforms, I'm earning an average of 0.90 cents per download (nearly all editorial stills.)
Surprisingly, sales from Alamy: $3.70 av.
Adobe: $1.14
Shutterstock: 0.91.
Wirestock: 0.83.
Dreamstime: 0.55.

I think when I did the math - for 'unlimited' sites it works out to something like $0.05-$0.10... shitterstock seems to be a lot of $0.10-$0.15...

Last few hundred on adobe average 0.84 
probably propped up a bit by a surprisingly high sub sale last week.

Not sure if I calculated right for Alamy, but this year ~14 something. It would probably be a lot lower if I didn't turn off sales to most of SE Asia after the 0 to a few cents sales they had there.

Quarter 3 on DT 0.56 Q2 = .57 Q1 = .42

I have no way to calculate on canva, but I strongly suspect it is well under 1 cent

. I had a similar experience with Shutterstock.  Lots and lots of 0.10 cent sales, then one day last month 3 sold for several hundred each.  Strange.
