Post by: microstockinsider on October 16, 2009, 19:00
I've just read scanned over one of those awful syndicated articles announcing:

 "the 5 best earning microstock sites: Microfoto, Fotolia, Shutterstock, Istockphoto, and Dreamstime. "

Searching for his other articles Paul Marchiori is listed as working for, and recommending Imageplus of Sao Paulo. He's a marketing guy, writing articles to promote the sites and get their name out.

Hey look, Gianfranco Coppola, is the Registrant for both sites. Odd how the articles promote two sites that most of us have never heard of.

Last one "Paul is the CEO of a SEO otimização de sites firm."

There's the answer.

Indeed, to clarify I wasn't trying to compare the two! I do have some images with pixmac and a handful of sales started coming in, after a rocky start they have made lots of improvements, they needed to!!! http://blog.pixmac.com/2009/08/05/the-way-to-satisfy-photographers-at-pixmac-we-think-we-can (http://blog.pixmac.com/2009/08/05/the-way-to-satisfy-photographers-at-pixmac-we-think-we-can)
