Stokie Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) 14 sales for $312. Lowest amount of sales for 10 months, revenue about average. Highest sale $150 (best for a good while). Lowest sale $0.88. (or -$2.32 if "other fees" affiliate charge taken into account). Views and zooms picking up slowly. John.

Foreign Export Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 29 for 930 this month 5 $$$ sales but the rest mainly tiddlers 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Robinson Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) In November I got a record number of sales. In December I got the same number. In January that number very nearly doubled - but getting only 70% of the money. That's what happens when nearly half your sales are for under $2.

John Gaffen Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 16 items totaling $91.96! Good sales volume but disappointingly low amounts 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avpics Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 3 hours ago, Avpics said: 75 for $600. A shocking average per image. Using Alamy's alleged average per image I'd be very happy at around $2000 gross! 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Jordan Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 In January 2022, I broke my record for lowest ever sale price. Peviously it was $1.67, now $0.98 gross. It also had no fixed end date... THat apart a very good month with 10 sales for $508 gross. Well done Alamy Sales. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sultanpepa Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 A BME busting 25 sales with previous best being 18 which I haven't even came close to in a long time. $424 gross = £126 nett isn't great TBH. So sales are up at the expense of pricing and commission. A true double whammy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanderingemu Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 averagish licence number. average $23. what is getting to me is: 7 usages seen during the month (highest for me), ZERO reported to date, so i have to continue doing Alamy's job tracking. AND a clear fraudulent usage last summer which i had to find, pressure them to go after (why did we give up 20% for the infringement team?). on January 13 Alamy reported they had received payment and that "the commission (sic!) will be added to your next commission statement (double sic!).". still nothing. So 3 weeks after receiving money, Alamy still sits on it.... losing steam. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reimar Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Only 14 sales for me, for a net of $136 (I've stopped tracking gross). That's $9.71/download. Compared to December with 103 sales for $189, that came to $1.83/ download. I hope we don't see so many 4 cent sales again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to see any report in January sales, so seems to confirm Alamy sits on the reporting, ok Allows their trusted distributor to sit on, all year.

spacecadet Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Reimar said: a net of $136 (I've stopped tracking gross). This does unfortunately mean that your sales can't be directly compared with ours, because there are at least 3 different commission rates, one of which (affiliate) may be applied in a subsequent month. By my reckoning your gross could be anything from $340 to $579. Edited February 1, 2022 by spacecadet 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the day all that matters is your bottom line in your own currency. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, now I quote both, to track how I'm comparing with the oft-quopted $30 gross average. It's interesting to see how others are faring relative to that nominal average.

Normspics Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 6 Sales for $62.05 gross highest was a personal use $19.99 My CTR is a record high for me. Sales for Jan are 50% less $ than last year. Looking positively ahead for February! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gina Kelly Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I'm glad to see that some people had a good month, that is encouraging. Mine was not so great - 14 sales for $133 gross, $50 net. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, I'm thinking it is precisely a gross amount that is not comparable between people because of 3 different commission rates. Those late net affiliate fees are hard to figure either way, and are rather small so far. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jansos Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 46 sales/licences for $606 gross. My highest number of sales on Alamy, to date. Sadly, quite a few tiddlers. Average 0.52 ish CTR, zooms 53. IMO, if Alamy can successfully grow its market (albeit with lower priced sales and mostly at our expense) with a view to clawing back some of the revenue it has lost to competitors, it might just work; with the proviso that they can hold on to those customers who are now paying diddly squit for pics! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Tucker Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I'm only small fry with 500 images on sale but 2 sales for $125.95 total, one being for 0.95 so glad to get the second one in. I consider I do quite well for such a small collection that hasn't been updated in quite some time, I am considering contributing again until the wind gets knocked out of my sails again. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
