With 200 files had 9 sales Wednesday, an EL yesterday, and 3 sales so far today (it's early afternoon in NY) - including one 4 year old file that never sold before, so a slowish month is picking up. Trying to stay optimistic.

With only 200 files ist this very good stats.

Usually Shutterstock always goes well for me. But this week was a disappointment, only $ 35. It's already Christmas again?

You mean Bichon Frise I assume?

Yeah Baby, kick-ass, the best fifth week in Feb. I've had this year.

Up over 100% from last February, monthly average up 66% from 2013, and RPI up nicely too. Too early to tell how the year will go but hoping this is a trend that will continue.

Copidosoma · « **Reply #457 on:** February 26, 2014, 18:59 »

one of my best months ever. Probably top 5.

More than 100% increase over Feb of last year.

Feb was crap. Sales down, didn't even reach the payout threshold. Loads more added to my port this year. Dejected $:-\$

luissantos84 · « **Reply #460 on:** March 01, 2014, 20:45 »

+31% comparing to February 2013

yesterday had +2 today +1, how pathetic you are

February was my BME at SS. My downloads were almost twice my average. While at IS my stuff sits. Does SS have more buyers of just a better search...maybe both

Pauws99 · « **Reply #462 on:** March 02, 2014, 06:45 »

SS does everything better than Istock as far as I can see :-)

Except make the sales of IS

Mantis · « **Reply #464 on:** March 02, 2014, 09:14 »

If I were to conclude a SS pattern it would be that sales are trending upwards (for me anyway) but they are more cyclic than I can ever remember them being. I can make in the neighborhood of $50 one day and $8 the next, have 50-60 dl one day and 15 the next. Strange but maybe the norm, maybe linked to a new kind of "shuffle" algorithm (similar to what DT did), but in any event this behavior for me is newish since around Oct 2013.

Today I actually had two SOD's for 80$ each, and both illustrations are so DUMB that I have a feeling it's a scam.

Edit: And a couple of more SOD's, but in the one-digit range. Weird, but I like it.

Feb was my second best month ever.

Roughly 200x what I sold at Istock (account closing as we speak).

Absolutely no complaints here.

Julied83 · « **Reply #468 on:** March 04, 2014, 15:40 »

Feb was good but yesterday and today are disaster !

ethan · « **Reply #469 on:** March 05, 2014, 08:51 »

Probably not representative of many but SS for February 2014 was my BME in D/L terms on this site.

Ron · « **Reply #470 on:** March 05, 2014, 08:54 »

You are no longer allowed to shared that kind of detail from SS earnings. Just a heads up.

In light of recent issues there, I kinda want to sign up at iStock again just so I can re-quit!

At SS, Feb was normal + a little extra, my sales increase slightly each month hopefully because I upload a little each month. Jan was my big one though, almost double my best month to date.

Hey Ron said something correct for once why the negatives?

I have no idea, but people already have been reprimanded for sharing too much financial details. I dont get the down votes either, but I need to learn to live with it.

We can share numbers if we want.

But shutterstock kindly asked us not to, because numbers could be extrapolated back.
And as long as they kindly ask us, we kindly follow their advice, to keep the good relations between contributor and agency.
