I hadnt had a zero DL for years until this year where I had a couple. Also over the holidays never saw zero DL days. However, this year, I am afraid it will be a streak of zero DL days this time.

Its already slowing down.

Yes, this December is very strange at SS. A lot of zero sale days. Though AS and IS are much better in December, than ever. What's going on in micro stock world?

stock despite a bad november is my only hope for next year.
shutter stock since mid november is falling down....especially the 2,85 sale and the single big sale have completely disappeared. since april i really had rarely a day without a single 2,85...now only subscription. in the last 10 days only 6 2,85 zero big sale. last year i had 190 dollar of single on the 27 of december...i hope to replicate but i doubt.
and u know, i'm working much harder than any year. but it seems not to make any difference. still selling mostly old files or stuff from beginning of 2017.
what i cannot understand what's the point to accept everything.
try browsing " christmas" and look the new files. some files are not even considerable as amateur, snapshots.
what's the business behind this? it's clear then that customer still buy popular or best matched files only. new files tab is always a mess.

Happy New Year!

I don't understand the way you see things here. You congrats each other for not having a day without one download.
Don't take it personally, but I think this is ridiculous. You can not make a living with these sales . Actually you cannot buy the most cheaper drink for this amounts.
It doesn't even worth speaking about it.

My year on microstocking was worse than the year before - the earnings were higher than 2016, but with much more efforts.
December was extremly low . I don't have anymore too much hope in this activity. And the problem is the fact that the big companies who should protect our copyrights don't do anything for this.

Too bad.

Happy New Year to all artists around the world!

However, as it has reset for 2018, you probably won't have (m)any downloads showing there. (I'm still on 0)
NB, dytd only shows the number of dls, not the $$ or the actual files which sold.

Oh thank you, so I need to check every day and look at that number to see if I got a download today? I just wondered how people saw ahead of the report, I don't mind waiting until they are posted, I mean I do because I'm looking at Nov. which is posted in Dec. but I don't mind that much because all I'd see is a number of downloads.
