Hi There, Does anybody know if views and zooms by other contributors are added to the stats in Alamy measures? I know I quite often browse other contributors work and am conscious that they may show as zooms that are are of little or no significance to the contributor? Thanks, Steve

Does anybody know if capitals give any advantage or is it ok to use all lower case when captioning images.

Hi, Is anybody having problems with Alamy measures info at the moment? Mine is just showing with no information (historic or current)

Hi Brian, I see your point and find it really frustrating that some 'irrelevant' images are listed way up in the queue from those I've uploaded. Seems a bit of a mystery to me and don't know what the answer is? I guess just sticking at it and going for the 'more images means more sales' approach will have to do. Lot of work for small returns though?

Hi Mark, Seems to be little difference in CTR and zooms although it has become a little more stable without the peaks and troughs. I think I would still expect to see a more steady sales figure though? Will sit tight and continue on the current trajectory I think, Rgds

Hi, Seem to be getting mixed messages from other contributors about what is selling right now? Anybody got any news on hot topics?

Hi, I've been a contributor now for around 12 years but only started really 'going for it' about a year ago. I've gone from 2,000 images last year to 7,200 images now and have not really seen an increase in either the volume or frequency of sales. Can anybody put any science around this or am I just expecting too much from an already saturated marketplace? Am I shooting the right range of stuff? Does anybody have a similar story to this?
