Anyone of  you try https://www.clickasnap.com/, (https://www.clickasnap.com/,) I saw on youtube that it can earn money when someone view your photos 5 seconds and above and also can sell photo on it? I try to go through the website but dunno why i cant see the photos ( cant loading the photos).

Your URL above has a comma in it. Take that out and the site loads. here's the information about getting paid

https://www.clickasnap.com/getpaid/ (https://www.clickasnap.com/getpaid/)

I don't see how this makes sense, especially as you can only upload 7 photos a week (unless you want to pay them £3 per month). If aim to have images that might "go viral" and get looked at a lot, perhaps?

Looks to me as if they're more interested in having photographers buy extras - become a seller of prints, pay for unlimited uploads, etc.

I haven't heard of them, but I won't be uploading there.

The name really sets my teeth on edge.  I've never liked the use of "snap" for photographs.

I looked at the "get paid" page, and what they're selling still isn't clear.  They seem to be aiming at people who are completely clueless about selling stock. 

I found their description "we share our revenue with you" condescending.  I don't want an agency's generosity, I want clearly defined royalties.

Same here. 

And I also hate the expression "take pictures," as if quality images are just sitting out there ready to be snatched. I prefer "make pictures," because at least it suggests that some creative effort is involved.

I just tried it (deleting the comma). It showed 5 or 6 images. But at the top, when I clicked View All, it kept showing images.

The site is a bit slow (so after a search, loading the page of images takes more time than I'd expect) but I can see images in a search, or if I look at recent or popular or click on the name of a photographer. I'm using Chrome on a Mac (10.15.6) and am in the US (west coast). Not sure if problems might be regional or browser specific

Yes, and I don't know how, as these usually show up here. I signed up for some laughs. Just closed my account last week. Oddly, after I wrote and said, this isn't working out, please keep the money and remove my images... I got a nice reply.

 Hi Pete,

We remove all the photos from the system

I guess I'll have to delete them myself.  https://www.clickasnap.com/peteporroklinger (https://www.clickasnap.com/peteporroklinger)

Oh and I think the most viewed image has 16 views and 1 cent in earnings. Another has 10 views and 2 cents. 11 followers. Four left, nothing wonderful. Gone, next time I remember to delete them.
