Great news, I have noticed my sales at Crestock are on an upward curve...keep up the good work.

My sales are creeping up month by month, it's good to see. Mostly subs with the odd credit sale thrown in. A couple of more $$ this month and it will be my fifth successive best match. Unfortunately, now that LO is out of the picture Crestock is now in last place for earnings. It's nice to see the upward trend even if it is slight.

Are they still paying an industry lowest 25 cents for subscription downloads? Or have they upped it yet?

Alatriste

Yes, sales are increasing for me too but all of them are subs...  >:(

Congratulations. Let me guess, $0.25 sale ?
Yesterday I got my first sale too, at Alamy, $330 for RF image (210$ for me). I don't understand what people doing at Crestock, slowest and worst earner in microstock business.

Nope..they still hold the lead there.

Sorry to burst your bubble, melking, but averaging 50c per DL is about the best you can hope for on Crestock. Although it's possible to sell images in quantity there, making significant cash at Crestock won't happen for the non-elite contributor until they restructure their commission rates.

I hope the sales continue for you!

You can do better! I have average of $1.125 per sale!!!!

(for two sales in couple months ;) )

Would you consider leaving microstock to concentrate on macro agencies Rene?
