Newbie Discussion / Differences between the various microstock sites
« on: September 16, 2008, 14:59 »
Hello,
I am very new to Microstock and am an amateur photographer with no formal training. I have uploaded images to 4 of the "Big Six" agencies, and found an intriguing pattern.
At the embarrassing end of the spectrum, SS flat out denied all 20 of my initial photos. DT and FT accepted 1/8 or so, and IS has accepted about 1/3 or 1/4 of initial contributions.
Does each agency specialize, or concentrate on certain subject matter. Are some more all-inclusive than others?
Thanks.
