Dave Nelson Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Hello. I signed up and started submitting images early in September - so far getting 120 images for sale, with fortunately no rejections so far. I am still trying to understand all the ins and outs of the captions and tags process, and with 140 some views with no zooms I'm not sure that I've got it right yet. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I've been working on the fringes of photography since the late 1960's, sometimes for profit but mostly for fun. I currently sell images on 3 other stock sites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phomme Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Welcome to alamy, you have a nice selection of images. It takes time and a lot of images before you photos start to show up on the first pages of a clients image search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Brooks Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Hi Dave Nice images good captioning and keywording. The only suggestion I would make is that because Alamy has a lot of British clients, keyword both the USA and British equivalents. For instance a “truck” in the USA is sometimes called a “lorry” in the UK. Spellings “colorful” in the USA “colourful” in the UK I use the online dictionary/thesaurus that comes with the mac OS. It has the British/American equivalents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
