Title: How to improve? Need some guide.
Post by: whatwolf on July 02, 2014, 03:39

Hi every one.
I have sent some vectors to Istock.
And nothing is sold the past weeks.
This is a serious blow to my self-confidence.
So,  in what place I can improve my vector?

Thanks a lot~

First of all, at istock new vectors sells awfully. It needs to be either a huge collection of vector elements or a specific niche that customers need and you might see a nickel here and there.

I recommend you to look up the best selling vectors and see what kinda stuff sells. Don't copy them, but it should give you a perspective what sells and what not. Try also other agencies.

Istock doesn't have lots of sales, especially for newbies. I am on Istock for about 4-5 months, and I don't get lots of sales (but when I get - they usually give me some dollars, not cents, as at Shutterstock). So just continue sending files with good quality, and you'll get it.
