Lisa Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Good month for me. Six sales (five Stock plus one iPhone). Highest sold for $175. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbimages Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 The worse month for many years, 3 sales, all direct & non exclusive. Gross $184.37. CTR steady at 0.93. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.Chapman Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Poor month for me. 4 sales for $55 gross $23 net (1 was a distributor sale) from 4,300 images on Alamy. I got more net revenue from just 200 images I have on a MS site.... Mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDoug Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Slow. One for $38, direct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanDavidson Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 This is an interesting topic. I was going to post my “best month ever” only to note that compared with some of the early posters my results were pretty average.... what is success? The rule of thumb of one sale per month per thousand images I guess gives some sort of average, but revenue is actually more important. I sold one photo yesterday for more than the combined value of the previous ten sales. I was was also thinking about an individual sales and total sales. I would guess that there is a Pareto distribution with twenty percent of contributors making up eighty per cent of Alamy sales. And, twenty percent of my portfolio makes up eighty percent of sales. So, again, what is success? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariaJ Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Not a very successful month for me, no matter how you define it. But I did get a whole whack of zooms in the last few days so I'm hoping this time next month will be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avpics Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 25 for $515. Not great. Very low values including live news 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were no $$$ sales and my overall revenue is about a third down compared to this time last year. 24 sales from a portfolio of 2869 is amazing! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VbFolly Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 10 sales for $212 gross. Average sale price low this month, but number of sales OK. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Myford Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Another month with a last-minute sale, so one for $6.49 gross. If it had been $$ I might have considered starting to upload again, but the trend is still downward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Heinrich Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Slow! Two sales for $106 gross though views and zooms improved a bit in the last week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David eastley Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 really horrible with just 3 sales worst month for a long time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Richmond Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Good for numbers with 35 sales but average prices low to give a total of $667 gross. Highest $75, lowest $3.76. 1.03 CTR with 75 zooms recorded. Best month this year so far but the declining prices are increasingly evident. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broad Norfolk Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Disappointing (again!). Just 4 sales for $$. Mind you, April is not historically a good month for me. Views, zooms, and CTR all down. Onwards and upwards.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vpics Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 50% of my sales were under $10. And most of those were distributor sales, too. If it hadn't been for 2 100+ sales, it would've been the worst month (of the last 12). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobD Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Views, Sales and zooms all average. However the average price is now getting beyond the pale at just $12.73 gross. Now seriously considering if it is worthwhile staying exclusive to Alamy. As others have said before these are micro prices without the micro volume. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stokie Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 9 sales for $191, so both below average. Highest £89. Seems like it's been a slow moth for nearly everyone. John. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultanpepa Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 11 for $172. Zooms and CTR crashed. Yesterday's late sale of $50 was subsequently refunded an hour or two later. Disappointingly it didn't reappear for any other value. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gvallee Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Worst month since July 2016 both in terms of numbers and revenue. Arghhhh!! Last April, I had 25 sales. Divide this by 5 for this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
