Colblimp Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 My port just passed 5000 pics this morning, at the turn of the year it was at 3,500. 🥳😀 Not a massive increase for some of the big guns here, but it’s enormous for me, helped no end by C19. 6,000 by the end of the year? 😁 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickygui Posted July 20, 2020 Share Posted July 20, 2020 On 14/07/2020 at 12:37, Pekka Liukkonen said: I have no sales since mid February. I´m slowly removing photos from Alamy and not submitting any more. I lost my interest in this game. I won't do that if i were you, because you won't incur any loses just by leaving the pictures on Alamy. Never say never when someone buys it, beside, it is just doing keywords, description etc etc, u dun need to do any marketing daily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryan Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Not seen a $$$ sale for quite a while, but a $150 lease appeared yesterday. I can never understand how the pricing works, this photo has sold in the past for a good deal less, it's not one of my major works so to speak, but a very welcome outcome. Thanks Alamy!

I don't sell much stock, but then I don't upload much stock any more. I'll do some stock pics if I can't be bothered to go looking for news stories, but that's quite rare.

Popular Post geogphotos Posted August 4, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 4, 2020 (edited) It might be more a sign of craziness than anything positive but I have reached 70,000 images. Nearly all 'Stock' as I don't do 'News' ' - which are two completely different sales life-cycles I reckon. I have always been clear that I am not a 'professional' merely a former geography teacher with a camera. Lately since lockdown that includes other people's old slides, also I have some Public Domain which in ratio terms sell well. I'm on $218k total sales ( yes, modest for the number of images compared with others) 222 sales in 2020 for $5.2 k gross I'm not in competition with anybody else and can completely understand why others have better statistics. But I continue to enjoy stock and continue to be grateful to Alamy for making this possible. Edited August 4, 2020 by geogphotos 5 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. I’ve taken full advantage of C19 and photographed everything from face mask wearers to COVID test centres to Garda check points. I’ve worked really hard, shooting almost every day from before dawn to after dusk. I’ve done very well with Irish nationals and Cork based papers too. News is where it’s at, seemingly... 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
