Title: Uploading to new Microstock sites
Post by: ronyzmbow on April 10, 2009, 05:53
I am contributing now to the following sites: Shutterstock, iStock, Fotolia, Bigstock, 123RF,Dreamstime, Stocxpert, Snap Village, Crestock, Featurepictures and Stock Photo Media.
I am considering to start uploading to some more agencies (Panthermedia, Pixmac etc.).
Is it a good idea?
Any ideas who are the better agencies?
What is others experience?

Panthermedia is working pretty well for me on my way to a second payout already with about 70 pics on line. I only put my best microstock pictures there
I upload there using Prostockmaster which ease the pain :)
You can sign up with my referral link http://www.panthermedia.net/?aff=124235 ou the normal one http://www.panthermedia.net

Good luck!

Personally - I would keep within the Big 6.
Here is where the most rewards come from.

Why stay away from Pixmac? I just uploaded a handful to test their keywording and processing, etc. It's been 16 days now and still in "Waiting". Wrote several times but keep getting response from them to be "patient" because of the massive number of uploads they've had. Said it usually only takes 2-3 days. Flags started going up. But when I do search on different images, it looks like they are having sales. Just curious why the exclamation in your statement. These are just the first few I've uploaded, so it would be good to know about any problems NOW. Thanks.
