Hi all!

I'm new to the microstock world. I'm just around for 2 months, although I'm shooting for some years now. In these 2 months I tried to shoot a lot thinking microstock and was able to sell 12 images in DT and 3 in FT. I know this is kind of a slow start so I was wondering if anyone was kind enough to take the time and critique my portfolio. Were should I improve?

Here's the link to my portfolio in DT: http://www.dreamstime.com/Vertigopt_info

Thanks! Help is much appreciated.

Pretty good port I'd say. Your keywords aren't the best though, you have a photo of two boats and there is no keyword "boats" and a photo of a surfboard and no keyword "surfboard". Also you've spelt "holiday", hollyday in one of them. You could do with a few more keywords for some of them.

Thanks very much for taking the time to review my portfolio and for pointing out those mistakes.
