despite a grow in therms of earning compared to 2017, near 15% each month what i see is that
2017- rpi one dollar...so every photo uploaded in 2017 gave me a dollar end of year
2018- rpi projection is 0,2 dollar per image.
practically everything uploaded in 2018 is down on the garbage pool.
compared to istock it's completely different. my most sold images of 2018 so far are from 2018 and 2017, only 10% older than 2017 sold. i really demand if it's worth to upload anything new in ss.

How about the same period in 2017?

i don't have this stats. maybe at the end they will recover...i focused more on still life and food, which is my passion this moment, but maybe better focus back on editorial and travel.:)

Two thoughts. First - you never know when an agency will change its approach, and so not uploading images to one agency means that if it improves in the future, you have missed out. Case in point - I stopped uploading to Fotolia for a time because they rejected most of my shots. Now they are part of Adobe stock, with rapidly rising returns, I have missed out on potential sales of those unsubmitted images.
Second. If it costs nothing and is no effort (if you use StockSubmitter), why wouldn't you upload your images to all the sites you thought either were worthwhile or had a chance of becoming worthwhile?
