Over the years I've seen folks, some actually showed me their sales, make some big money in single day.  My personal best is only $240 for a single. I am still waiting for my big day...

$75. It's my first year in business. 

Probably around $300.

Is this SS only or also other agencies? My highest sale was $200 gross ($100 net) at alamy for a pills on a white background. Have this same photo at all MS agencies I upload...At SS it was $60 SOD.

$330 in one day

Does this include buyouts? Had a couple of them over years from 123rf in the four figure range. 

My best day was on Shutterstock and was in excess of $500, (as opposed to yesterday, which was less than $20, and I have no words to describe how depressed I am).

I once netted $300 on an Alamy sale, but that was years ago and for me these days are long gone. Presumably I had a good iStock day that day too, as that was how things were then.

Forgetting  about the Good Old Days would seem to be the best way to keep sane.

some nice days!

Yes, it includes all sites combined.  This is the positive part of our business that we dream will happen to us on any given day. 

Time for some bragging
On April 28 this year I had 4 sales at Alamy, together netting $2,531.24

Happens only once in ten years, though

no bragging at all! I assume they cleared? I seem to get a lot of refunds on this site...

I once had a request for a buy-out of one of my vector illustrations, netting me a four figure number.

My biggest non-buyout sale was a Single & Other sale on SS which netted me $128.

26 November 2008: 450.22 Dollars

I have had days with more, if I get a lump sum for a month or so from someone. But this was my highest for a single day. Thank you istock.

$262,5  (my part) for a single sale on 500px when they were still paying 70%. Other than that a $200 sale ($100 for me) on Alamy.

3 dollars and 30 cents.

I had two sales which were over 1000. Not so lucky this year.

$4800 all agencies combined in one day 

$330 from SS, IS, FT, 123, DP, DT combined on May 13, 2016.

Not including private sales to companies and galleries, accounting for a lot more than this, on payment day.

Several thousand $, but then I woke up and when I went to check the stats, these earnings were no longer there, unfortunately.

Other than that, quite a few times in the range 250-500, I don't sum up daily earnings usually, too many places.

Across the 7 sites kept track of by Microstock Analytics looks like around the $800 mark. It was was early this month when FL gave us all those misreported sales over a couple of days.

I made 480$ for a single photo on 500px...i guess i ended around 560$ that day.

Wow well done, was there a couple of really big sales or are you averaging somewhere in this region anyway?
