I just have some sub sales at the beginning of this month then all the way to empty.............................and got some weird rejection of vectors >"<

yes,i feel the same way,why they do this?too simple,too many,we dont need this...etc ....>"< what happen to SS? those they rejected were selling good before.....
SS is not like IS or others,if we dont have new files on line,we are all dead,please SS back to normal...

which photo?

congrats,Lisafx...I never thought that your are on the level of black diamond of IS because i often saw you like to complain at it, LOL...so what if you turn into the exclusive,the pay would be double or triple...??I dont know,do you have any idea of that?

on the right column of the forum,I saw the earnings rating this month,almost green arrow?But i can't feel the trend,all website i submitted is red arrow so far..............

recently i just have many sub sales and 1 credit sales >"< and none of my files are into level 2 >"<

I see the "New photos added this week" number is down to 72K at the moment (from a peak of about 112K?). Maybe the lack of returns is starting to discourage some contributors?

Yep!

Competition slowly leads to that, if you want to earn an average, you have to work as an average !
And it's working time of at least 8 hours a day ...
Soon, will end a hobbyist approach to the microstock ...

As a confessed Hobbyist Microstocker Student (not like the dedicated people who are in the majority here) I can say, avoiding uploading during the slow periods is a mistake. You make a good point, keep the image supply flowing. The sales will come later and can only help during the off months.

Look at this from a marketing side. If you stop advertising during the slow months, that will carry over into the better months. New images are the same as marketing. If people don't see something they can't buy it. Holding back is a design for defeat just as a flood after a drought runs over the hard surface. There's no gain if there's no image.

All the gaming of the sites, sizes, keywords or the upload day is amusing folly. Good appropriate material sells!

If you have an image ready today, upload it today. Should I make this one of the micro mantras? "Buyers can't buy something they can't see."

Your reply helps me a lot, thanks ^^

I feel a big slump at the begining of July.I dont know if others face the same way like me.I just have a question if its worth uploading files to SS at this time ?Because I think if the file dont get the first DL after uploading,it would sink into the sea and hard to get back to the surface,especially for SS.

i found the view is low and funny thing i got only 1 subs download $0.30, but it is deducted as returned sales, so back to $0... this is the first time i heard there is a returned sales..

it does has a hold up period for images like? 2 years? does it mean i can't close the account in 2 years based on the date of images i uploaded recently?

i remeber that somebody said it would be locked for 6 months,i dont know...
but i try to deactivate a file ,its functioned!
returned sales?you mean refunded sales?its first time i heard the sub sales refunded LOL

4 or 5 months on there, 217 files online,still got nothing to feedback just bonus for uploading but its canceled for me already....
Is this site dead??I think i never get the payout for good...
