Title: Selling Videos on Depositphotos?
Post by: Tyson Anderson on May 16, 2024, 11:45

Hi, is anyone getting video sales on Depositphotos?  I've had about 600 photos on their from years ago and still reach the $25 payout every couple months... so I'm wondering if throwing a couple thousand videos on their would be worth the time.  Wouldn't even be that bad with an easy FTP upload and submission process.  Anyone having success with videos there?

Loading is very fast, the site understands the csv file. There are sales, but worse than on other stocks.

Cool, thanks for the reply.  Such a fast process I might just give a shot

… best idea ever…. was to delete everything when they started to undersell others…

Sold only one animated video. For a miserable . 04 cents. While others sell for as much as .83 cents or .50 cents per image. I guess it depends on a purchaser's subscription plan.

Only reason I upload to DP (other than the once in a blue moon sale) is that I'm able to download my own full version videos without a watermark from the port. Comes in handy as I hate having to search through external HDs!

Hey that's a plus, thanks for this bit of knowledge

With DP video sales, I make the $25 payout every couple of years... if I'm lucky. On places like Shutterstock, Adobe, iStock and Pond5, I'm making that amount every couple of days on a good month!

my tax form that I updated has been waiting for approval for several days now,I would like to withdraw but I can't,I'll wait a week from now then I'll try to send an email.

As for videos,I've never sold one,while for images they sell quite a bit,not bad,considering I haven't uploaded for a few months,and my port is relatively small on DP.
