Title: Many microstock buyers here, or only contributers?
Post by: StockedMedia on March 07, 2024, 03:10

I'm new to the site and trying to find my way around this forum. I'm more of a buyer of microstock  than a contributer who sells content. Are there many on here like me? I've had a couple of projects where I've struggled to find the right content so will be posting a few things here soon to see if there are some agencies that I havent come across that might be better.

Welcome buyer! :)

Unfortunately this place has mostly producers. Some are graphic designers that also buy content for projects.

But if you post some examples what you need i am sure people will be happy to help.

I am a buyer and a seller. However, I don't buy many images. I estimate that it's between 50 and 100 per year. On demand at Adobe Stock.

In fact, there are subjects where it is very difficult to find good image material because they are niche topics.

Example: A customer specializes in basement windows and concrete light wells. However, the images required are not intended to advertise the basement as a basement, but as additional living space. There is hardly anything to be found. But it's also not worth producing this for Stock because I don't expect any significant sales figures.

Nevertheless, I bought images on this topic and edited them until they met the requirements to some extent.

What kind of photos do you need?
