Microstock revenue

Today I found a blog post on Dreamstime written by Cynthi Kovach. She has decided to work exclusively with Dreamstime and she has some good points about why one should work exclusively with only one stock agency. And it seems like it’s working for her! I never thought I would ever think about going exclusive but maybe it’s not a bad idea after all. It would certainly be much less work to just upload to one agency and not 10 (like I am right now). It would also save me time which I could use to create more images. Well, I will not go exclusive yet anyway. But in the future it may be something to consider.

By the way, check out Cynthi Kovach portfolio. She has lot’s of cute baby pictures… I just love them!

On Monday I wrote about an article that analyzed the top 10 best selling photos at Dreamstime. There is a similar article for illustrations which analyzes the top 10 best selling illustrations at Dreamstime. If you work with illustrations this article is a must-read. It gives some very useful tips on how to create a best selling illustration.

I found an article at Dreamstime that analyzes the top 10 best selling photos at Dreamstime during 2007. It seems like family and business type photos are the most popular. Groups of people in photos are also popular probably because it’s not that easy to get good shoots of several persons in one photo. I suggest that you read the article because it gives you some really useful information about how to create best selling photos. You can read the article here!
