For me, from undisputed No 1 with 60% share, SS slipped to No 5 after 4 months of going downhill. And, while I don't upload much, I do it on a pretty regular basis. But, the more I upload, the slower SS becomes...Go figure.

Actually, a pretty dramatic slowdown on SS happened about 2 months ago, it was like hitting the wall, and it is only getting worse. Well, at least the other sites perform better and better all the time.

i think that for most people once they get to Emerald Fotolia will  become the earnings leader. This month Ft is almost neck and neck with SS so once I get to Emerald and increase prices it should overtake SS by a lot.
Even 123rf and BigStock that used to make about 1 or 2% of IS are now making over 30% of IS.

After my "weeping song" here, I had first OD sale and unusual 25A sales...
Now SS is again at first place, but how long...

I think that SS "king of subscriptions" will abandon that model of sales one day, they know that...
They will leave their "masterpiece" of sales, OD model is a first step forward...
But, that is only my opinion...
