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.

Well done. My month died on the 7th.

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?

I don't know, but you really should start a new thread for this. This thread is specifically for positive results on Alamy that contributors have had this year, not for queries regarding licensing models.

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)!

Just surpassed 2017 for number of sales (the positive bit) but still $500 short on gross revenue (not so positive). Sign of the times!!

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.

[Alex Ramsay 338]

$115 direct sale, and with this one I'm now level with last year's total sales - just squeaked in under the wire

[Bryan 10,254]

$191 book sale popped in today, so they do still exist 

 

Distributor sale however  but that's still $57 (before tax) that I otherwise would not have had 

[wiskerke 2,435]

A $100 magazine sale took me to the same number of sales as last year.

Only still $264 behind. Which means $0.84 less per image than last year. Not bad at all.

Both ## and $$ quite a bit behind 2016 though.

That's great news - worthy of opening a Good News in 2019 thread?

[Betty LaRue 1,643]

Ok!
