My Microstock Stats - December 2015

Nice month, but no growth for me.

Christmas holidays without christmas pictures on my portfolios was a little punch but anyway I had the same sales of November, just a little less but the difference is pretty little.

The best one, as always. is Shutterstock. This month I added also alot of pictures to this agency. On vacations I worked to adjust many previously rejected pictures that are now accepted and online on my portfolio.

Second best for this month is Fotolia, im near to level up as contributor to this agency and to get paid. The only compliant for this agency is personal: no editorial pictures mean less travel pictures (one of the kind of pictures I sell often).

Third is iStock, great month begins with many many subscriptions and refferral downloads (0,28$ each). When reached the lasts 2 weeks of the month I earned nothing at all...if sales had continued until the end of this month it was the first agency instead of Shutterstock.

Just few sales on Dreamstime but better of the previsious months.

Big disappointment for 123rf, really few sales compared to last months results and ridicolous royalities. Bad month to Bigstock too, and worst with Depositphotos.

inexistent sales for Pond5 and CanStock, the useless agencies on my personal tier.

I also added many pictures of my loved new baby, Lisa and send it to all agencies i contribute.

In the meantime i subscribed to another agency: Photodune by Envato market network. For now I uploaded my pictures by FTP but i'm stuck cause this agency have one of the worst indexing system so I am really slow (and demotivated, PD is not one of the best rated agency for sales too.
