Sultanpepa Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 In terms of numbers Feb was my second best month ever with a total of 17. Unsure of revenue but a number a newspaper sales offset a few reasonable sales including one of $187 for a total of $427. If I could get this every month I'd be a happy man.

Michael Ventura Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Thanks to an end of the month surge, February ended up being about average. The first half of the month was super slow....glad it finished on an up note! 16 sales for $856. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbimages Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Dreadful, one of my worst months for a very long time. 3 licences for $215.46. The two largest were distributor sales. CTR fallen down a dark deep hole. Largest sale fee (my share) was on one of "those" sites and was over 50% more than the best I got from Alamy.

pierre rochon Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 7 sales for $310, with a nice sale of $200. That's a better than average month for me. Good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvallee Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Good month in terms of volume (16 sales) but boy oh boy prices!! Almost all around the $10 mark. Also half the number of zooms in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marianne Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 2 Sales, Average monthly revenue. Views, CTR and Zooms were way down until the last week of the month. Zooms spiked up to 40% above average, Views up 25% and CTR back to normal - 0.63 in my main pseudo (my name) and to 1.61 in an actual pseudonym that I would delete except its CTR is often above 1.0 I hate seeing the pseudonym in travel book credits under my photos, not that anyone except we photographers read those credits pages. (When I was editor of my college paper we did a spoof paper for April Fool's Day and my brilliant photo editor credited about half the photos thusly: "Only photographer's mothers read photo credits.") That was in 1978. Some things don't change Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Good month for me with 15 sales for $939 gross. Three $$$ ones in the mix, which always helps matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
losdemas Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 7 for 484 gross A sale on each of the last four days of the month made this my BME (just) in terms of gross $. Net not as good owing to 40% and one distribution sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.Chapman Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 10 sales for $329 gross, $156 net. An above average month for me. But zooms and CTR have been unstable since September. Are others seeing the same? Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellonearth Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Another abysmal month. Just 1 sale for 7.99 nett. This following on from Januarys spectacular result of 5 sales for 9.95 nett. I have over 6000 images on Alamy now. Over the last 12 months, my port has gone from 4800 to 6300 whereas my port at the microstock site has gone from 1100 to 2400. My total sales on the microstock are only 25% less than my Alamy sales despite the huge difference in port size. Over 3000 of my Alamy port is exclusive but not marked as such and I have changed all of them from RM to RF in readiness for loading to microstock sites. It seems the sensible thing to do until such time sales at Alamy improve ( I won't be holding my breath) Kevin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Heinrich Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Worst month for a long time. A mere 2 sales for a grand total of $25.84 gross. Views and zooms on a long term downward trend. Good to see that others are doing a lot better though as it means that the market is not yet dead and things may get better, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broad Norfolk Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 7 sales here and average price per image up slightly. Views and zooms down a touch as is CTR. BUT - not a bad start to the year! Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Convery Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Third poor month in a row with 13 for $236 gross I used to regard 250 - 500 as average and over $500 as good, but it looks like I will have to revise the targets lower this year.
