I have a new squarespace website for my photography.  What are the most effective ways to integrate my stock photos and videos into my Squarespace site so I can sell them digitally?
Thanks!

We also tried building our own websites to sell stock photos and videos directly to clients, mainly to avoid platforms like Shutterstock or Adobe taking a big cut. We did get a few direct sales, and that was nice.
But honestly, most of our income still comes from stock agencies. Clients know these platforms, trust them more, and  most importantly ll the licensing options they need are already there. Its very hard to recreate that kind of licensing system on your own site.
In the end we kept our site mostly as a portfolio and added links to our stock accounts. I wouldnt say it boosted stock sales a lot, but at least we know we tried everything we could. So Im not really advising for or against Squarespace just sharing what worked and didnt for us.
