Title: New to Stockxpert...
Post by: bluewren on June 13, 2008, 16:29
Does it take a while to get going on Stockxpert?  I was accepted at Stockxpert on 27th May and have been uploading regularly since then and now have 81 images online with more to come.  But I have only had one sale during that time... is this normal for stockxpert or am I uploading the wrong type of images?
I'd appreciate any feedback.
Thanks, Bluewren

My experience is that you have to be very patient for StockXpert to take off, took me almost a year and I have almost 300 pictures there now.
I opt out for sub so I have a good $/dl there of about 2 $.
Good luck!

Hi L,
I'm prepared to be patient and persistent hehe... This experience is addictive and I'm looking at being a long term participant, so, I can only look forward to what might l happen in the years ahead.
Cheers, Bluewren

It took me about a year to really get going there, longer than other sites but it is worth being patient.

I should have been a little more patient... since I first posted my sales have increased to 4.  :)

Keep Smiling!  Bluewren

congratulations on getting in! I think I hold the record for being not approved. LOL. Been trying on and off for years, still no luck.

I was accepted in May this year and have 45 images in my portfolio. I averaged about 3 DLs per day and hit the $50 mark on 3rd July. Since then I've had absolutely no DL's whatsoever, none, nil, zilch!!! Has anyone else noticed this? Do newbies get better exposure? Do you have to take your money out before starting again? Or is it just not the buying season? Just seems a little bit odd after I started so well. Thanks in advance, Stickstock  8)

I was also accepted in May but till now I have ZERO dl. s...
My acceptable rate is above 95 % ,but still nothing....
I have about 90 pics online and same portfolio on the SS have RPI about 0,70 $ per month...

I don't now where is the problem, everything in "my account" is marked with hooks or OPT IN...
 What I should to do!?

Join to affiliate program on the main page (jupiter, etc.) or contact support...

For me,everything is strange but also foolish to contact support "Why I have sold none, till now"...

What is your opinion!???

Views  does not mean much.. My dl/views ratio is like 15/350

As you said image quality must be the reason..   :)

Started uploading at StockXpert at the end of April. Exactly one month later I got my first download. With 197 files online now, only get a few downloads per month and August has been slower. Also just opted out of subs so we'll see how that goes. StockXpert, 123RF and BigStock are all about the same for me for earnings.
