Title: Slow sales?
Post by: maggieddd on May 09, 2006, 11:32
How is shutterstock doing for you today?  I average about 15 dl/day with 160 pictures. Last Tuesday I had 36 downloads.  Yesterday 18.   Today only 2.  I find it very strange. 
How is it for you?

Shutterstock slowed down last month and hasn't really picked up.  I am lucky to get more than 1 or 2 DL a day (with about 50 photos - I am working on this).

actually last monday and this monday are a bit of an anomily (i hope anyhow).  They are about half the downloads I usually get.  Today however it is back to normal, and the rest of last week was really good.

In a weird turn of events...after having my images (2) on shutterstock (and being rejected) I have had one download in 3 days...so in terms of being rejected yet getting a download, its pretty fast for me

ahahha...i hate irony  8) ;D

Well its good to hear you guys are doing well, because I'm gonna rack up a tonne of images and then i'm gonna bombard them in three months  :o

Good luck and hopefully it keeps up strong

actually last week was really good for me.  Probably the best week of all since I started (04/01/06).  Even the weekend was not bad for a weekend.  But today is horrible.  2 downloads only.  I even had more downloads when I had 30 pictures up.  I have about 160 now.

How can you have images on Shutterstock if you haven't been accepted?
