Title: May sold pictures
Post by: davidbautista on June 15, 2019, 21:57
You can see now in the app and esp which pictures were sold. No statement yet but since you can see how many are subs, getty and credits, you can make a wild guess :p. Good luck

Quite surprised here.

Recent uploads and several sales on the first month on my 2nd getty try. Most of them as getty sales.

Can't see the money yet, maybe 0,002 USD.

I still cannot understand which ones are "good" 😁

How do I see which ones are subs/Getty? I can only see number of downloads.

Observations from my May sales:
1. Re-starting uploading in Jan hasn't helped me any - one sold in April and that's it.
2. We are soooo at the mercy of the algorithms.

Derby: usually the credit ones are not that bad hahaha compared to the "istock subs"
Rushay: https://esp.gettyimages.com/ --> content statistics ---> performance --> downloads --> click on the "+" for each picture to know the details
ShadySue: that was truth for me but in SS :(

I have a different downloads number for my 1st month in performance-downloads and account management-profile.

Do you know why?

If you're exclusive, it's because Plussed images count as two in downloads year to date.
Otherwise, the stats don't necessarily tally because they're pulling stats from two different sources.
I know, it makes no sense, just passing on what they've said.

I've never quite known the difference between the subs, credits and Getty Images sales when it comes to earnings for footage... but up until a few months ago I was getting mainly a split between subs and credits with the occasional Getty sale. Since February I've had 46 Getty sales on just the one clip... plus my usual amount for credits and subs. Not sure if it's been featured or something, as I couldn't find it on Getty. It's a pretty generic clip... not usually one of my best sellers. Can't complain though!

If you do work it out let Getty know......
