I hope it does not sound like a cockfight, but I would like to know what your acceptance rates on the different agencies are. I am just curious about it. It’s difficult for me to evaluate whether my acceptance rates are good or not.
These are my rates:
Fotolia: 70 %
Dremstime: 78 %
Shutterstock: 75 %

123RF: 95 %
Stockxpert: 93 %

So, how many percent of your images get accepted?

(sorry for my English…. I know it’s not the best englisch

)

Well, I don't keep this statistics, but DT tells me I have 69% acceptance (100% lately), FT tells me 86% (less lately), IS is 59% (probably mere 20% this month), 96% in BigStock and in StockXpert I have no idea (is there a place to retrieve this?).

Regards,
Adelaide

My acceptance rate at all of my Micro collections is 95% and above with the exception of Istock which is dropping and is down to 67%.

Best,
AVAVA

average numbers for last 12 months (i.e., my entire microstock experience):

IS - 71% (recently higher)
SS - 80% (~90-95% recently)
DT - 71% (~90% recently)
FT - 53%

IS 82.57 % (I'm exclusive - but it was up near there before I went exclusive)

IS- 60% (same today)
SS- 90% (accept almost everything today)
DT- 75% (98% lately)
FT- 65% (including useless resubmissions)
StockXpert- 97% (can't remember the last rejection I got)

This have to be taken easy because I don't shoot very difficult subjects. Always in studio and still objects these days. I always got the over processed rejections at IS and I decided to scout a lot of them lately. FT is also crazy sometimes and not clear at all.
