General Stock Discussion / Re: Poor Shutterstock sales

Please join my topic in contributor forum. Unfortunately, there are only 3 big firms in microstock industry.


Complaining to SS will not stop the fact that other companies are taking their customers.  Look at the poll. Just a few years back SS was like 97! Now it is in the low 80's and it's going to get worse for them.  Sure I've lost about 40% of my sales from just the last two years but that's life in the business world- nothing I can do but to move forward with the other companies or find work outside of the MS world  :-\

Yes i mean POPULAR button. When did they remove this button? Sales are horror and i think it is not related to New year period.



Wasn't there a MOST DOWNLOADED button in search page? I think they removed this button and it affected sales of most downloaded images. Now ı can only see MOST RELEVANT and FRESH CONTENT buttons. November sales are horror. I can not imagine December and the rest.

What about asking this subject to shutterstock admins in contributor forum?

You are thinking of "Popular" (there never was a MOST DOWNLOADED button) which never related to most downloaded, it was the result of a gobbledygook algorithm of newest, downloads and clicks which resulted in some form of relevancy according to SS.

I installed the latest version and logged in but when i start the program i am facing a blank screen each time. Version 2 is also installed and i can see the all data. What am i doing wrong?

37
Payout reports is gone now  :-\ how can I see pending transaction amount in istock?

38
End of January. My average is $ 1.49. Gross earnings dropped more than 50%.

39
Gross royalties / total downloads

40
I can not see earnings of subscriptions and direct downloads. My average was better before new system  :-\ Maybe less downloads but more income.

41
First week, $1.32 average  :-\

42
I can see total sales and total earning of january  :-\

I stopped uploading photos and i am gonna wait. I can see the sales and balance in Deepmeta. I can log in to  gettyimages with my istock  account but it looks like it is not a contributor account for getty. Are all the contributors buyers now? That's strange.

Is it possible to see (in Deepmeta) what kind of file was purchased or only number of sales and balance are visible?

Really? So, i don't have to register?


I can get into the Getty Forum using my usual Istock login details. Perhaps you have something wrong?

The forums there appear to indicate that this is a temporary problem, and support provided this link to view stats for the time being: http://www.istockphoto.com/user_stats.php?id=000000&Offset=-1&DownloadsGraphFileType

Hope it helps you until the site mess is sorted out.

Earnings of previous month generally appears in the page in a week. I hope to see it in pending state.

46
I don't want to be exclusive. Some of my images are selling high in iStock. I am happy with fotolia and shutterstock. I will wait and see the sales for a few months.

47
I'm looking forward to seeing january sales in istock at the end of the month. Will contributors get email about the monthly sales and earnings?
