How Was December

[John]

Well I'm down this month by about 25% on total earnings but I expected that with it being a long break. In addition I haven't had much chance to upload images although I have added a few more..


So for December in cents per image I am

IS    23.1  down from 24.8
SS   23.6  down from 31.5
DT   21.3  down from 29
123  6.2   down from 16.8 (big drop)
BS   4.6   down from 8.7
CS   0.9   down from 4.4
FL no change at 4.6 which when taking into account the Christmas lull, actually translates into an increase.

So my best performer this month is Fotolia. By the way, have you seen the incentive for uploads there. Every approved image between now and the end of january automaticlly gets 20cents added to your account. The incentives get bigger the more you upload...

Just wanted to clarify the above about Fotolia ... in order to get a payout, you have to have a minimum of 50 approved images during the time period and agree to keep the images on the site for a year.

That's correct. I actualy have a problem with my model releases. Chad is trying to sort it out know. Have about 120 images that was rejected "no model release". I have uploaded some 3 times and they all are showing..
  Spend days and still not sorted. Uploading my images 1 at a time..

Sales have picked up at FL. 123 is down almost 50% over Dec 05. Constant sales accross the board at most of my other sites. I do my calculations a bit diffrent. I like to work on $ earned per day.. & total sales VS images online. In Jan so far I'm running on about $10.50  per day accross all my sites. Need to push that to about $100 this year. That meens I need to upload more images or better selling images

Good luck for the year ahead. Think its going to be a GREAT year!
