I only started to get (fairly) consistent sales from my very random portfolio once I was over 5000 images, though I don't think any very definite conclusions can be drawn from that Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Gaffen Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) Nothing for me since August 20th! A bit of a drought at the moment! Stats quite poor too with a very low number of Zooms! I Haven't uploaded much over the last few weeks though!

Steve F Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 (edited) First sale of the month!! But $ and a distributor. It's a start through! edit: Second sale of the month a day later. $$ and a picture that I only uploaded in mid August. Things are looking up!

Paul Heinrich Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 Dire month so far. Views well down and only a solitary zoom to date. Sales yes - 4 very low value as of yesterday then today, surprise surprise, a PU sale from last week is refunded. That particular abuse really has to be stopped. Alamy ARE YOU LISTENING - there should be NO refunds on PU sales!!! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MariaJ Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 This has been a weird month. Only 1 zoom so far, but at least it resulted in a sale. And it was a RM sale without any details, and 70% deducted. Never had that before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An RM license without details is odd, though. Not sure I've ever seen that. Perhaps the distributor didn't supply any info. You could check with Alamy.

Yes you're right John, it was a distributor sale. In fact that was the only information. It just said RM sale China and no details about the usage. It was zoomed and sold the same day so perhaps the information isn't all there yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Richards Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Five sales in August, magazine and newspaper, totalling a modest $$. No sales this month but I've seen a significant increase in zooms over the last couple of weeks. Fingers crossed some translate into a sale or two some time soon.

Avpics Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 As someone who has been averaging more than one sale per day I've not had any reported sales since the eleventh. August was poor too. Worrying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niels Quist Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) After a long drought - six sales in September - most at nearly satisfying prices. Certainly don't hope they are my last sales 😉 - and I don't want to know when I'll have my last sale. 🙃 Edited September 17, 2020 by Niels Quist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No! 😃 Rolling monthly figures for yesterday show 17 sales, 9,602 views and 74 zooms for a CTR of 0.77. 10 12 sales so far this month so not too bad for me - which probably isn't what you wanted to hear!

Foreign Export Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 plenty of sales for me and have already passed the last couple of years BUT vast majority are all for $3 and a bit - with the odd one above $10 really poor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Betty LaRue Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Still nothing for September. Zooms still happening, but way down. I’m not sweating it, but curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thyrsis Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 3 sales on consecutive days which is unusual for us. But 1 newspaper and 2 PU’s so not going to celebrate yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will probably have a good month next month and I will have a poor one. That's the way it seems to go sometimes. Keep your pecker up!
