$1000 Milestone

Yesterday, I reached another milestone at Shutterstock with $1000 in downloads during the 14 months I have been a contributor.
It took me more time to reach the first $500, about 11 months, and my second $500 took me a little over three months.

I'm working on increasing the amount of images in my portfolio. The main delays are the long review times, and continuous image rejections. Right now, I have 658 images, and my next goal is to have 1000 images in one month or two.  Hope to get to the $3000 mark as soon as possible.

Fine Art America

I got my first sale at Fine Art America. A $ 18  Framed picture of the Washington DC- Three Soldiers Sculpture. I was very surprised since I only have been there for few days, and I only have 26 images there.

Images of the Week

Shutterstock Best Month Ever

Shuterstock earnings get better and better every month. May is my best month ever with 323 downloads, and I earned $175.15. I had the highest amount of ODs ( On Demand Downloads), 29 of them which was $63.46 out of the $175.15. I also had a $15 Single Download. I added more images during the past 5 months than I did on my first 8 months at Shutterstock. I can see the big difference in my income since January. First 8 months my income ranged from $30 to $40 a month, past 5 months range is $68 to $175.00. I'm currently having a monthly payout of over $100.00 for the last three months, and hope it continues.
