Really good image, pity the layout person didn't like books. And a pity it's still not clickable in any way. Nor is the Info button. No links. This way the contributor doesn't really profit from it or at least it's pretty hard. wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that Alamy wanted it to represent it's architecture images more so than books. The image reference number is in the info button. I've already sold 3 shots of this library {all different}. Two exterior and this one, so it could become a popular seller down the road. Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avpics Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Three in today including a TV use brings the total for December to ten so far, which is the best continuing start to a month for a fair while. Previous months have died around the 5th and then restarted around the 28th so it's welcome to see a steady flow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Martinus Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Asking here... Is it right RF photos are tend to get more sales than RM these days? Because I saw usual buyers are often from the same regular companies, like The Sun, BBC, and other media from British and Europe. This makes me assume ordinary buyers from another countries are prefer to buy RF than RM. What do u think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is specifically for positive results on Alamy that contributors have had this year, not for queries regarding licensing models.

Michael Ventura Posted December 14, 2018 Author Share Posted December 14, 2018 December continues to be the month that keeps on giving (despite what Alamy is aiming to take away). A high number $$$ sales and all are non distributor sales! Two sales dropped in tonight with one being for $255 (educational book use)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colblimp Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 I guess I can legitimately post here. I've 75 sales so far this year, which may be rubbish to some, but I'm really happy with it. It's a big increase on 39 sales last year and only 5 the year before (my first year at Alamy). Revenue-wise, this year's income is 250% up on last year, which I think is quite good. My first year isn't worth talking about lol. Let's hope next year shows the line still rising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
