« on: July 04, 2015, 00:24 »
I don't know what they are doing but my income drastically decreased in May and June!

 
What's going on?! >:(
Mine is the same as usual

Adobe Stock / Re: Fotolia Rank
« on: July 02, 2015, 07:32 »
My weekly rank is between 600 and 700 and so far this year I have made between 400 and 700 a month with last month being the lowest.  I'm pretty sure that my rank was much higher a couple of months ago.  Overall rank is in the 200s .

« on: June 25, 2015, 10:22 »
I got loads of 38c SODs today.  17 of them on one image that isn't a particular big seller normally.

I wouldn't put all my eggs in one basket and I make more money uploading to multiple sites than I could with those conditions.

GLStock / Re: GL suspending uploads?
« on: June 22, 2015, 16:20 »
I've made about 60$ there so far this year.  The only reason I even uploaded there is because it is the easiest upload anywhere for model released images.

Or a lot of liars.
What would be the point in lying if you are anonymous?  Showing off is pointless if nobody knows who you are.

General Stock Discussion / Re: Some optimism would be nice

It took me about 3 months to break the $500 threshold on SS and I think that's better than average. Things can only get better from there.


Ok just to show you why we are not happy now.  You are happy breaking the threshold of $500 in 3 months in 2015-  These are the figures for my first month on SS in August 2006.  On the first of the month I had a handful of images up and by the end of the month a couple of hundred at most. Bear in mind that it was almost 100% sub sales as OD sales rarely happened then. My earnings 9 years later with thousands of images are not much more than double that. Maybe now you can see why we aren't optomistic.

I've got a couple shortlisted at the moment but they seem like they are never going to close. !!

Adobe Stock / Re: Keyword sorting tool update
« on: June 11, 2015, 09:48 »
Does that mean that the order can't be altered after they have been reviewed?  I know that it used to be important to have them in order but then I thought that was scrapped so I haven't ordered them for ages. Maybe that is why some good images never see get any love.

Mind you people have been nailed to a cross for that! :o
Be careful with this as it could start off a whole new argument ;)

If we get rid of it we will end up having to scroll through loads of '+1' posts.

I think most people have got used to having a 'like' button like on fb and often just want to put if they agree or don't without having to type anything.  I don't know why people get so worked up over such a trivial thing.  If you don't like it ignore it, some people enjoy the feature.

@ Fotografer, I have about 900 sales, did you see 900 threads?


Not sure why that comment is aimed at me I merely said that if I had pressed the disagree button it would be because it wasn't a Best Sunday ever for me.   I never mentioned your amount of sales.
Apologies, it was Justanotherphotographer
Ok thanks I wondered what I was supposed to have said ;)

I didn't press the disagree button either but if I had it would have been that I disagree that it is the BSE.  No need to get sensitive about it really.

This is a question that a lot of new folks ask thus I have a rough formula based on my stats (Below average photographer at best, photos only, no special area of expertise)

Here it what I have seen- now most of the sales are from the 25 a day download section thus cannot predict the monthly $$ amount. Also mileage may very per artist  :)

Portfolio Size -    Monthly Sales
350            100
700            200
1,050         300
1,400         400
1,750         500
2,100         600
2,450         700
2,800         800
3,150         900
3,500         1,000                         

Given that this was a discussion that occurred in 2013, I was curious to see if this was still accurate for most (give or take).  Thoughts?
That's about right for me.

Very underwhelming.  I'm nowhere near one of the 'big boys',  have less than 3000 images and have licenced over 160,000 on Shutterstock alone.

For me it's Fotolia and SS.

Monday was a religious holiday in many countries which explains the beginning of the week being bad

Photo sales are about the same for me this month as other months.
