Avpics Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Thirteen for just under $300 continues the slow start to 2019. This seems to be a pattern for me for the start of a year with an improvement in March and April. We shall see..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cryptoprocta Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 13 for $108 net. 4 of these were unreported sales from last year, which Alamy is still insisting on billing at a vastly reduced price. Actually, until yesterday my rpd was shockingly low, but two sales yesterday, one for $45.50 net (best in a long time), pulled it all the way up to ... $8.34 net. Plus one sale refunded and not resold; and a refund from November sold for the same use, different date, same $$ rate, better exchange rate (by 18c!) Zooms and CTR poor.

Marb Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Abysmal month!!! One tiny $13 sale. Extremely poor and discouraging. I have had far bigger single microstock sales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Ramsay Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 And yet another total of 13 sales (I seem to be the fifth contributor in a row to report this). Gross revenue of $421. A disappointing month, lowest sales total for at least a year and revenue below average. Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandyAppleRed Images Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Best month in terms of numbers - 9 for just over $200. Mainly decent fees ($40+). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobD Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 2421 views - about average 11 zooms - below average 7 sales for $134 above average sales but although average price is up on the last few months is still disappointingly low and below what I will accept to keep uploading and remain exclusive to Alamy.

Bill Allsopp Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Yet another dreadful February for sales but lots of zooms so here's hoping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 75 sales for just over $2K gross; only 2 $$$ sales, best $119; best February for several years Good zoom numbers and CTR Kumar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aphperspective Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Started of with a flyer first day 2 sales $$ each then crashed and burned for the rest of the month. Ever hopeful for this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VbFolly Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 A poor month for me - 3 sales for $61 (on the plus side, I've already beaten that for March and it's only the morning of the 1st!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Myford Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 The image that was zoomed during the Measures downtime turned into a sale on the last day of the month, so one for $10 gross. At least it was exclusive. Every time I get a sale, I want to upload more images. But every time I upload more images, Alamy does something - I'll be charitable and say "questionable" - that makes me regret it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David eastley Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Worst month for 5 years with just a single sale which is very strange following 3 record months for me. Part up the ups and downs of stock I guess but still a shock to the system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 On the low side with 33 sales. Prices from $5.15 to $199.99 and 11 of the sales were distributor (not the big ones fortunately). Disappointing but not devastating. Pearl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedSnapper Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 68 licenses (after refunds)...so about 30% down on the rolling average...... But a nice $2300 payount this month takes the sting out of it.. km Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njene Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Only 1 sale for the month for $200 - it came in on the first day of 40% commission lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimar Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 4 hours ago, Hellonearth said: 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 It's good to see a few stellar months out there, but my experience is similar to yours. One of my worst months (even if it is a short one). I had 13 sales for $305 and one refund, so really $258. That amounts to $111 net. Having started with a MS site mid December, I'm still a few thousand away from getting my whole port up, but already I have about the same net monthly income there ($104).

John Richmond Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 23 sales for $358 gross. All exclusive, 1 tiny distributor sale. Not my best month in the last year but not my worst. 75 zooms for CTR of 1.12 shows promise for things to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
