I think it will never replace real photos. Especially editorial where reality and authenticity is needed.

I can use Xpiks for 10 hours to keyword my 300 photos or instead use 1 click.

It's a popular fallacy, exactly what I'm discussing in the blogpost. Of course it's never 1 click with Wirestock and it's never 10 hours with Xpiks (especially with AI keywording, batch editing, presets and what not). The point is that saving some time today with Wirestock puts you in an disproportional risk of wasting way more time later (and potentially loosing also earnings). That is the point I wanted to make in the article.

Well... everything is a risk... basically if shutterstock and adobe goes down everything goes down since they are the highest earners. We live only 1 time and i want to use now the most i can. I dont think that Wirestock will close any time soon and that they have a bright future. Nothing to worry about.

I used to do all the work myself and also used xpics. It is a great program but the when it comes to workflow and speed there is no comparison with Wirestock. I used to work every evening several hours for submissions. Now it is literally several minutes. For me personally i would be crazy to go back. I prefer to spend those won hours to be with my family.

To me a very odd article and seems it was posted only for business reason.

I can just keep the spirit of the article and could say "Why you should only work with Wirestock".

Why spending many hours keywording and uploading when you can do it in simply one click. In a time with many files online and revenues going to 10 cents it is better to save time. Wirestock makes you save time... a huge amount of time. I can use Xpiks for 10 hours to keyword my 300 photos or instead use 1 click.

You can use Wirestock and you will not need to worry which agencies are best :)

5
Well.

I suggest to use Wirestock and you dont need to worry about which agency is behaving which way :)

6
I doubt that i can every replace editorial photography. Editorial will be always needed and needs to be real.

Well for me Wirestock is the best decision i made when it comes to stock. The competition is today simply to large plus royalties much less then it was 10 years ago. It is now all about efficiency.

Wirestock will bring you quickly on a higher earning level on sites as Shutterstock or Alamy. Next to earnings there is also a huge saving of time. I used to spend to many hours with the submittion process. Now it are just minutes.

They are just for a short time on the market and in short time they envolved very fast. They improve every day. I feel that i am sitting in the right boat.

Finally the end of logging into several agency websites. Now simply one place with the whole process plus statistics and pay outs.

It is not a scam at all. No scammer would great a such a open website.

It does the below:

We are managing to get to many platforms with the best economic and strategic distribution. We do not sell your content for you, instead we send your work to several online vendors that already do a great job of marketing and selling your content.

To me it is simply another service like Blackbox and Wirestock. They only use other words ;).

Well... there is always the solution in the form of Wirestock. Upload once, no keywording and have images online at 7 agencies happening all in from one place. Plus many extra earning channels.

My upload process is like 5 percents as it used to be.

10
Wirestock. Does all the keywording for you. No need of opening accounts. All handled through on Wirestock account.

11
Fully agree with Brasilnut about their attitude and potential. They were open to take suggestions and reacted very fast. I see myself working with them exclusively. Time-saver is undervalued. They practically take almost the whole process away from me giving me time for new things. Thank you Wirestock.

12
Thank you Niakris.

Actually i am not talking about the keyword suggestion tool. I mean the regular place where we start to enter keywords. When selecting a photo i click on the edit icon then a screen appears for keywording and adding description. That screen doesnt has a thumbnail what makes keywording rather less practical ;).

Thank you.

Its great platform.

While i am entering keywords i cant see the image thumbnail. Will it be added?
Thanks.

Alamy.com / Re: Caution: Don't Question Alamy

What kinds of images could be sell on Alamy?

Really?! Why don't you find out for yourself? In this day and age where everybody complains about falling sales, "slices of pie" shrinking to everyone due to competition, etc, do you really think people will tell you their secrets so they get even less sales?

Honestly, why don't you put your bank account number here so we can all start sending you money. Would save a lot of time for everybody.

Slow down. He didnt asked which images are selling in your port of anyones. He just asks what kind. Answer would be for example travel photos... editorial photos. Dont look always for a reason to blast around. This forum is becoming worse and worse.

When it comes to service and listening Alamy is by far the number 1. I really dont know any other company in any sector with such great approach and attitude.

Thanks Alamy of being always open and available for us.

To be honest, we are not ready to say name the prices right now, but they will be ready after beta testing.
Final prices you can find at our site https://dam.everypixel.com after 14th of November.

Thanks.
do you also support editorial submissions?

17
Sounds really promising. Especially the cloud option so we can work basically from evertwhere and not being depended on 1 computer.

Do you have a price indication of a individual person?

Thank you :)

Adobe Stock / Re: Minimum Payment Commission Increase

But lets not discuss here if it is better to submit to Alamy or micro. This topic is all about Adobe and if someone is wishing Editorial here he will have a own reason.

Adobe Stock / Re: Minimum Payment Commission Increase

The only thing missing is really editorial use only submission possibility.

Please Adobe add this future. I am sure a lot of photographers are waiting for this. Millions of photos available on other agencies missing in Adobe ;).

Mirco
Why so keen to sell for so very little on Adobe when you can (and I know that you do) sell editorials for more on e.g. Alamy, and all micros have done is take editorial sales away from, and force prices down on, there? If the buyers want pics which are not on the micros, they might consider paying a fair price elsewhere.

I cant do it by my own. And anyway.... did you took a look at the large editorial offer only on SS. It is to late. Next to that A seems really to be UK related. Look at their "what to shoot" blogs. UK UK UK UK.

Anyway editorials are doing in my case much better on SS then Alamy. I look at the end amount regardless the price per image.

Anyway this thread is about Adobe. And all other micros have already editorial for long time. I would love to see editorials on Adobe as many others do.

Thanks Adobe.

The only thing missing is really editorial use only submission possibility.

I mean we have the possibility to submit to Adobe directly from Adobe Bridge or Lightroom. Many photographers that use lightroom or photoshop are editorial shooters. It is pitty that it cant be submitted to Adobe Stock.

Next to this almost all other agencies including the small ones have the editorial use only option.

Please Adobe add this future. I am sure a lot of photographers are waiting for this. Millions of photos available on other agencies missing in Adobe ;).

Thanks.

I was writing it "seems" soon. The reason is because in the past they where saying something like "it is not decided yet" ,or "we will let you know if it will happen". But now they say "definitley in the plan" and "let you know when implemented". They will let us know when it is active and not if it will happen. Maybe I read it wrongly?

22
Hello all,

I received below answer from adobe after asking if we can expect editorial submission option:

It is definitely in the plan to accept editorial content, and all moderators will be notified once this is implemented.

Great news.

Shutterstock is selling every year more and more to customers. For sure nothing going wrong. Nobody destroys his own company.

This is just a typical thread that people assume that own images are the best by saying other new ones are crap. Also they want shutterstock for themselves. You can always submit on Stocksy or similar sites if you think.your images are so amazing.

https://www.dreamstime.com/poznan-poland-february-cover-humana-organic-baby-food-jar-wooden-table-humana-organic-baby-food-image110969228

not even white balance and exposure correct...and you talk about quality? portfolio like yours show the level reached by microstock.

First of all I am not the one that is complaining and wining. Second I could pick 100 from your port that look worse then the so called "crap". But that childish I will not get.

You are just the best example of those braggers without being an example.

Then other slimer giving those bigmouths points.

No comments.
