Author Topic: Should I upload Christmas images now or wait until next year? (Read 3166 times)

Have some christmas pictures that I have edited and keyworded was just a little slow with getting them up and online. Should I go ahead and upload these images now or should I just can them and instead upload them for next year?
I'm curious how this would do with image sales, will they actually sell during the year or would it be best to have them setup and fresh "new" uploads during the next christmas season?

Modified OP to change title a little.

I will say that upload them now next year. I uploaded 200 vectors of christmas and new year on 11 december which got online on 27th Dec. (Christmas gone and new year very close), my sales suddenly dropped down a lot due to late approval time. This is the first time for me that shutterstock took so much time for approval.

I was expecting for good sale in december but due to this issue everything went down. So I will recommend you to upload the files next year now.

I would upload them in September/ October.

I would upload them in the last two weeks of October.

I agree with Fotografer and Gostwyck. Hang on to them and upload next Autumn. Meanwhile start working on Easter now, if you plan to do any Easter stuff.

Some people are still selling Christmas stuff and continue to sell it all year long.
