@EmberMike
why did sxc work and ultimago not? Both sites are targeting exactly the same target group (buying or not buying, sxc also targeted non-buying customers). we can generate revenue with both parties (buying=upselling or premium-membership, not-buying privates=advertising income), sxc could not since they only send a fraction of their users to stockxpert and did not share the advertising with photographers. We do.
@sharpshot:
In addition to the difference in opting in or out, I also want to raise another major difference. When comparing services, we also need to compare the licences. While our "free licence" is restricted, the getty connect licences are also different to microstock (RF) licences and paid on a pay-per-view basis. Basically, it is two different services and licences.
Best regards,
Robert
