Does anyone here have their images with PressFoto.ru? How are their sales?

We've got our images at Pressfoto, and sales are better than many of the low earners. Uploading images is quite easy, reviews are fairly quick and the people at Pressfoto have been very helpful in our experience.

Everything in Russian on the website?

The submit area is also available in English. And via Chrome, pressfoto.ru makes a lot more sense. But yes, it is an inconvenience.

Not to the Russians

It's the same company that organizes StockInRussia conferences.
And the same company owning their own stock production group (under name pressmaster/Shironosov)

thanks for the thoughts. Any other sales opinions. Are they similar to a site like Canstock, Veer, Yay?

I'd be interested to hear if anyone makes regular payout from them.

For us, they perform better than Crestock, StockFresh and Cutcaster. Veer, PD, DP, and CanStockPhoto perform (much) better for us. I'm sure they'll provide us with "regular" payouts, but that is also a matter of definition. At the current rate, I'd say once every two to three months for us. But as we're only on our way to the second pay-out, it's probably too early to tell, as all files we have online at Pressfoto can still be considered "new".

I can only support that: Applied with them three days ago (this discussion made me curious) by simple sending a mail to [email protected] and stating that I want to join them. Then only hours later Alex Shcherbinin, Head of contributors management sent me a friendly mail with a well elaborated contract and after signing this I got immediate access. Upload via FTP is a breeze indeed and then the team of pressfoto.ru took care of localizing description and attributes of all images in lightspeed. Now most of my portfolio is already up and I head first views. I will be happy to keep you updated in regards of sales and other experiences, so far I can only say that they behave really professional and therefore I am more than willing to support them.
