Who remembers the good old days when by lunchtime (US time) on the first of each month there was always a vibrant new post detailing the earnings from the previous month? Sometimes it was a race to see who could be the first to report. These days - not so much.
So I'll start. A pretty good month for me (yes, you heard that right) with September being my 16th consecutive month when I have exceeded the earnings in the same month of the previous year. The big saving factor for me this month were my video sales - $564 our of a total of $3315 for the month.

so much for cap or wall theories - Great work Steve! 8)

Sad how good news on this site doesn't get any attention! Only 'Negative' news gets responses... :-\
-
This gives me hope!
-
SS - Down 20%
AS - Picked up good but still down compared to SS
iStock - Good
DT - Still falling
123RF - Bad
I have much hopes from AS as they are continuously improving.

An average month with some peaks and troughs to make up for it SS mediocre Abode fourth above average month in a row. Decent sale on Alamy RF123 levelled out at shockingly low level. DT not as bad as usual Can stock whole month with nothing. The others very little as usual. Haven't really been submitting much so could have been worse.

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing :)

Impressive results, Master Steve! "Cap" those doom&gloomers!
As for me, strong volumes on SS but way too many subs. Biggest highlight were some lucrative book cover licenses at Arcangel, finally.
Oct should be better overall...

Steve
what number oh videos do you have on your profiles?
Rosebud with videolove
-
370 videos on Shutterstock so about that level. Almost all of the newer ones have been 4K and they are selling better (not always at the 4K level, but I think I'm getting better at it.)
