since september sales suddenly increased with over 50%. September BME, october is in the race to beat this.
Uploading is easy, I (almost) never check my approvals there

1. With stock you (may) earn some money

2. shoot what you like

good news, just got the email.

september was my BME on ft, hope october will also be that good

BME on FT. 

Of course that €100 EL today helped a bit

I had 3 yesterday, never happened before....

2015 total: 18 EL's

DT has never been consistent for me, but August was my BME there

That was my experience too, and previous months were holding steady. I'm actually happy with DT right now.

strange...
completely opposite here. Pretty steady over the years, but august WME. Less than half my average sales

neither I do, but who cares, a sale is a sale

got another one for €30 

a subscription X

my rank is pretty stable and goes up and down with only 10. I cannnot imagine that someone's overall position varies that much. Maybe his weekly position.
For the statistics....mine's 1730 and my monthly average is about €200

may was bad, june slightly below average.
But it isn't only ft with lower sales.
I think the holiday dip has already started

Spmeone here not too long ago got the same request for an image

There is no back and forth negotiating, just an offer and an accept or reject from what I know

So this person didnt want to ruin the deal by asking too high, if I remember correctly, it wasnt a great selling photo, and a very simple one at that. he asked for $900 and the deal was done. Everyone left happy.

I think it was me. Sold it for $900, got paid $450,-.
Had to remove the file I mean within 2 or 3 days from all sites.
The file only sold once or twice since it was online.
Shortly after that I received two more requests, I asked the same price, but never heard anything from it.

today I noticed that my ranking has changed from silver to gold. Normally I needed 10,000 dl,s (4 subs = 1 dl).
But now they are counting every sub as one dl. Since when has this changed?

Has your royalty rate increased on today's downloads..?

yep, but today only subs. From €0,29 to €0,31

a 6 credit sale: from €1,50 to €1,86....not bad

yesterday I got an email of 500px saying this:

Prime User bought a License of your photo "xxxxxxxx"

An HD download link was sent to the buyer.

But on my page I cannot discover any sale. I cannot even find some statistics or whatever.
I have a free account.
Maybe it takes some time, but maybe it is just some advertisement stuff...
who knows?

This morning I just noticed I had a sale at FotoArabia last april, my first.
My share.....$4,22 

Still a long way to go for my first payout

must be a mistake, I simply can't believe...

Did you contact them already? Is this your first €0,01 sale?

What about this sale 

fake

it could be a coincidence of course

I send them an email yesterday and today they reset my earnings, so I guess payment will follow soon 

still nothing here

their upload- and submitting system is one of the easiest around. They even decide whether an image will be editorial or not.
And sales are increasing here 

also here, since a month ago views increased with 50%.

but I,ve seen more of such fluctuations about one year ago. From out of nothing views increased with 100%. Then collapsed after a few weeks.

btw, it didn't affect my sales

what would be more profitable for you (OP): carrying on microstock as a hobby or making it a business?
Just a question out of curiousity
