I just happened to check my Bigstock account today and found out I sold another photo (below) since the last time I looked. Woo-woo!! 🙂
This is what I saw today at Bigstock…

So, I’ve now made a total of $5.33. I only have 40 photos approved and online with Bigstock. My approval rating is only 43%. I need to get better at figuring out why they reject my photos and I need to get more photos uploaded and approved.
My goal this year is to get 5 photos edited and uploaded to Bigstock, Canstock and Dreamstime each week. So far, I have not been doing very well with that.
I do know some people who have managed to do very well with this stock photography. They started from scratch, like me, but they’ve uploaded a lot more photos than I have, and so they’ve sold a lot more than I have. I need to make the time to do it too!
I am going to look into this, sounds like a good use of nice photos.
You should check it out. A couple of people I went through the workshops with are making hundreds of $ per month off their photos!
It’s hard to get started, you have to learn what each site will accept and why they’ll reject your photos. They’re all different. Once you get that figured out it’s all about numbers. The more photos you get online, the more you’re able to sell.
Try Bigstock, Canstock, Dreamstime. There are a few others.
Thank you.
