As such it's a niche market with lots of competition - even if you have stellar work, there's only so much those images can be used for and thus only so much you'll be able to make.

If you want to improve sales, I'd suggest branching out your subject matter a bit

Tripod
Change perspective
HDR
Photoshop pop

In almost all your pictures, perspective and framing greatly limits the sales potential.

I am speaking about that muscular man....he is on what we yanks call the push up position...it's for exercise. He goes down, then up then down then up...etc. Builds muscles. No you didn't do anything wrong.
