About three months after I got accepted into the major microstock sites on my first attempt, such as iStock, Shutterstock and Dreamstime I finally after a third attempt managed to get into StockExpert.
The reason that I persevered was that many people seemed to rank StockExpert in their top three earning sites, so I figured it had to be worth it to keep on trying.
Thus far it seems reasonable enough, 37 accepted out of 50 from the first batch with a few more hundred to upload. Now I guess time will only tell if it was worth all the effort :)

Congrats!
I am glad you perservered, they are my ranked no.3 in sales for me, well worth being with them. Good luck with the uploading and hope you start seeing some of those higher commissions soon :-)

yeah, they have been #3 for me as well for quite a few months, a very easy upload system as well make them a fav.
-
Yep, #3 for me too. They are really excellent - fast web site, easy upload and they seem to be investing to grow the agency. If anyone is going to challenge IS in the longer run it will be StockXpert.

Just got accepted there a few days ago on my second attempt.
Hopeful for a good run!

For those here just being accepted at StockXpert, note that they do NOT want standard everyday images - landscapes, flowers, skies, your Auntie Flo and her dog etc; these will invariably be rejected for 'thanks, but we're not looking for those at the moment'.
Also, they do demand top quality.

Woho! my first sale at Stockexpert, hopefully this is a start of a beautiful friendship :)

Congrats on your first StockXpert sale, ozbandit!
-
well same here. If I read that sales at stockxpert are almost near FT or DT, I knew I had to take an other one :)
So I got approved three days ago and now I can submit 15 days 50 images ...
I must admit that the upload system is very easy, although I find the site and layout a little confusing at first.
-
For me, sales at StockXpert are more than twice as high as FT and DT this month: this is a record month at StockXpert and this site is growing fast for me.
I also get my first EL license on this site... a $50 income for a single download: the highest EL price I get until now.
And if you consider the fact that you get $2.50 for XL downloads and $5 for XXL, StockXpert is definitively a site you have to join IMHO. My average commission at StockXpert is a little bit above $1 per download which is the highest amongst the many sites I've joined.
I like StockXpert quite a lot ;D

Very impressive so far. Already after two weeks and a bit is making up 2% of my total income from microstock and has the highest by far, return per image.
