Or should I have two different accounts and upload separately?

I'm already in shutterstock, doing quite well as a newbie, now I want to expand to more agencies. I'v heard good about Fotolia. Never really experienced with them fully since i'v got very little files there. What are your best?

General Stock Discussion / Just wanted to share this with you all.

While reading the posts on this forum recently I came across a quote from someone that I really found catchy:
" Keeping your photos/vectors on your hard disk won't bring you any money, you better put those on stock agencies. No matter how much they bring, keeping them on your disk would never bring you anything after all.
As a new microstocker. I really loved what he said because ther's some truth in it.

General Stock Discussion / Anyone here knows if.....
« on: January 15, 2017, 00:08 »
Just wondering if reviewers( or agencies in general) give priorities to the best quality images even if they are new?
Like for example i upload an image with intense level of quality and demands, do they push the image up since they know what sell better.????

General Stock Discussion / My goal is this:

As a second part of my recent post on how things were not so good for me, I'v tried to change my view on microstock. What i can sum up from all the replies i got from you amazing people out there is microstock is not a 'get rich quick' game (as we'v always heard). So my goal is this: Work as hard as i can, creating 'quality' contents  in several agencies for like 2 years. I mean it! Two years full of sweat. Then after that two years, when i'll have a huge port in some several agencies, by that time i'll already know what my niche is exactly and if things don't go well after these two years, i'll have to drop microstock. It's like "building for the future" scheme. I guess in 2019 things will be different if I start NOW! For now i can only dream of a very decent revenue from micro, but all dreams come with work and sweat. Wish me luck for I really hope reaching big one day.
You know what is bad? Doing all those things for two years and get nothing in return! This business is a business of fear and hope. We don't what awaits. But i think we have to sail through the waves to reach that beautiful, calm, peaceful island!

Well i'm not so experienced in micro, have been on for about two years now, uploading on and off. This last 3 months i'v seen lots of progress, increasing amount of dwl, and each month turn out to be bme. This December was the best ever. Then yesterday i read about how things are not really what they seem to be! I read that things are good for newbies only, those of the .25 group. I swear i'm getting sales more than ever every time i increase my port. But....! I'm afraid. Am I losing my time to get nothing in return in the long run? Am I being fooled with those daily dwl? What is the reality of the 'success' i am witnessing daily? Please share with me your experience. I made a resolution to take this business real serious this year. Am I doing the right thing? Some of my vectors are on the first page on shutterstock. I'm more of a calligrapher, I don't really upload photos that are over rated in most agencies like nature, business, etc. I do fonts, calligraphic logo, arabic calligraphy, vectors in general. For the moment my only agency is shutterstock. Should I continue or not. Advice me. Thankxx

General Stock Discussion / How do you manage?
« on: December 04, 2016, 08:03 »
Can anyone illustrator here help me in sorting this out. I'v been with shutterstock for a long time. Now i want to expand the agencies to which i upload. The issue is, the regulations are bit different for each agency. For example, with shuttestock when uploading vectors, i set my jpeg previews to 2500/2500 resolution. But when i look at fotolia and envato, their rules are different. How do you manage ? Do you save each files differently for each agency or do you have a shortcut way? Thank you/
