Slow november?

Unless some Super Amazing Miracle happens today or tomorrow, I'll have a drop in DLs and revenue from last year.

However, I'm surprised to see my RPD actually went up very, very slightly. It looks like the lower SOD prices have cut considerably into the number of ODDs, but I suspect they've also shifted some former sub sales to SODs. It looks like the days of decent-sized SODs are all but over...those sales are quickly approaching subs levels.

Nope, November looks good. Better than a year ago.

Not great at SS - it will probably be my 3rd best earner this month. It used to easily be my best earner every month with often well over 50% of the total. For the most part this isn't because other sites have passed SS but because SS has dropped. I haven't had a big SOD in over a year (I can't remember one for more than an OD sale).

30th was best day of the month. I don't know if buyers are using subscriptions or just catching up for the holiday week? I hate to say, but total for the month is normal about average for November. However AdobeStock is up and iStock is in the dumpster. Rest of my outlets are also average and normal. I don't really look at day to day, and overall, not even month to month. Annual is a nice way instead of agonizing over the little ups and downs from micro watching, micro stock.

Nothing better than settling in for the holidays and looking at some stock photos with the family. Granny's having a good time too... You'll need your 3D red/blue glasses by the way.
