Adobe Stock / Adobe Fotolia Stock Fail?
« on: June 17, 2015, 14:15 »
Almost 48 hours have passed since the great news published by Adobe Fotolia.

From yesterday till now I have 60% less sales at Fotolia. Even worse as the weekend sales! Even "Low Earners" Stocks are better. And the others?

 :-\ :-\ :-\

@Dumc Yesterday was a buyer from US and today from other world. US taxes.

You're wrong.

If u are from EU than it's correct.

As I see the changes right now it's all positive:

- prices on Adobe Stock seem reasonable
- royalty rate is higher than on Fotolia up to Gold level (from emerald on FT onwards people get paid less on Adobe Stock)
- royalty rates for some products on FT moved up (those subs packages that pay above minimum rates)
- sub sales on FT (and the new ones on Adobe Stock) now count as a full sale towards the rank

Add to that the (possible) reach of Adobe Stock, it all sounds like really good news!

A few questions I have:
-What happens to exclusive files when moved to Adobe Stock? Higher price / higher royalty?
- I did not find anything about extended licenses on Adobe Stock. Are they available? At what price?

Overall very positive.

Agree with you.

Sounds nice, thank you for this great info! Let's hope that things come true.

From January 2015, my rank (sell) fall from 300 to 1000, So there must be some change. I upload new photos twice per week, but nothing change. I hope that it will now.
 

Greetings,

Robert

Weird here too. I have last week all weekend days  :(

In FT also. But my rankings grow. So all contributors sell fewer I think.

Low from January!! I do not understand the policy in this stock. More photos lower sales.

And if someone uses an IP blocker, it will put the thumbnail in the ocean next to Africa on the left.

I thought most of my files were downloaded from a pirate ship sailing around Cape Verde.  ;)


Yes this weird ship  ;D ship does not sail on the sea, the ship is in port all year!

« on: April 23, 2015, 02:28 »
Yes, I notice that too! And a few month I sell only (read: ONLY) my old photos! Nothing new, thats weird!
I don't find that.  Fotolia is one place where I know that at least a few of each batch will take off well.  Even moreso than SS. Maybe I have a better placement in the search there.  Although at DT I get really good placement in the searches but new images take ages to start selling.

Before New year I have excellent "placement in the search" there. I was 7/day rang 200 and better. Today I am rang 7/day 1000+. Before New year FT was my best stock, better than SS and IS. Today barely better than DT. What happend, only FT know!  :-X

I must say too: FT stuff, FT forum stuff, FT contact stuff is catastrophic bad. Very unprofessional! They are the most contributor - unfriendly stock!
I hope for better times at FT.
