Hi, I started from zero photos to more or less 500 photos since April / May 2017. (less for AS that does not accept editorial).
Types of photos: editorials, cityscapes, urban life, landscapes and pics related to travel and some with a model release.
I just received my first $ 50 payout from AS (today), I'm going to receive my first SS this month ($ 35) and IS in March or April, according to my estimates ($ 100).
Here is an overview of my RPD by agency (by number of sales) :
IS 0.57
SS 0.30
AS 0.84
DT 0.63 (only 19 sales)
1RF 0.59 (only 12 sales)
-I will not upload more pics to 123... and watch what will happen.
-DT I will continue, but if sales do not increase, I will let him go ...
-Since december, I uploaded my most recent pictures on AMY (today 238 pics), no sale but that should follow ... I had a 100% acceptance ratio (3* rank....).
Videos (port around 20, only 4k, some time lapses)
Sell 1 to P5
Sel 0 SBlocks
Sell 0 SS
Sell 0 AS
Sell a couple with IS, but I do not upload more videos to this site because of the commission which is very low for videos.
Voil.
Since my beginnings (April 2017) I changed my camera and improved my techniques ...
I look to upload to another site, if you have suggestions ... thank you.

Hi, I am shopping to find a motorized slider (or not?) Not too expensive, to have fun and try things (amateur, not pro). I started looking and it's pretty expensive to have a motorized one! moreover, I would like to have one that allows me to film from top to bottom with a certain angle ...
Does anyone have any advice or suggestion?
thanks

Hi, maybe a newbie question, but my pdf report doesn't match with the "downloads year to date"
In my PDF, total sales since may 2017 are 103 pics... "Downloads year to date" indicate 98 pics...
do you have the same problem?

Hi, I have a question : Example, I'm traveling in India, in a remote part of the country where people do not speak English ... they smile at me, want to be photographed. Often, they are also illiterate, so having them sign a realease model causes a problem. I do not do it. It happened to me the same thing in many countries, including China ... I go back home, I have great pictures but no model release ... what are you doing in such a situation?

Not a single sale for the month of December until now ... am I'm the only one? I only have 300 photos, but still ... it's my worst month since I started in May 2017.
greetings

Hi guys, i have a couple of nice 4k footage (mp4) and it's impossible to upload in IS because they ask for an apple codec (Prores 422 Hq)... the problem is that i'm on Windows 10... do you have an idea how i can convert it this specific codec? I can upload my footage on other site, but not on IS...
thanks a lot.

Hi, i uploaded, 2 days ago, 5 editorial pics of my visit of the South/North Korea border. SS accepted the pics wih no prob (I even sold 2 photos), but rf rejected all my photos for theses reasons : mage Unsuitable as Stock Photo - Too Offensive - Improper for General Viewing... Pretty ridiculous no?

Hi, i'm happy with my first stats (I started in May 2017)... It's encouraging to see people buying my photos that were sleeping in my hard drive!
Since may
Rf, 300 pics, 2 dl
DT, 300 pics, 1 dl
SS, 150 pics, 8 dl
AS, 150 pics, 14 dl
IS, 300 pics, it said 3 dl but it's not clear...
P5, 300 pics, 0 dl
I think it's a nice start is not it? For me, AS is the place to be ;-)

Hi! I'm new in the stock market, my portfolio consists mainly of travel photos.
I registered as a contributor on the following sites :
-Istock (255 pic)
-Dreamstime (255 pic)
-Adobe stock (130 pic)
-Shutterstock (110 pic)
-pond 5 (255 pic)
-123rf (250 pic)
I had sales on Adobe (10 pic) and Shutterstock (4 pic) only...
I noticed that the sites that are the most severe in the analysis of the photos are the ones that pay the most ... in my case, Shutterstock and Adobe. Did you notice that?
