Are Photos selling here ?

Marbury 16 Jul 2011 14:48
I was wondering if any images sell here at all. When I select the highest downloads in the search filter they all show as zero ! Any reason ?

Not yet.

If you use the salegt:x search method the system returns 6,992 photos and 1,312 illustrations have sold at least once. The counts decrease as the number of sales goes up as one would expect. One photo has sold nine times.

But those "photos" are not from P5 members. See:

The question was "if any images sell here at all", not "have any of your photos sold".

Some of the ones that have sold might be photos subbed by P5 artists to the supplying agency, 123rf , or they might not. Either way, no sales of photos sourced from 123rf will show under a native P5 ID as there is probably no known link between the 123rf ID and the P5 ID. Yet. Just because the name is the same doesn't mean it's the same person.

About 14% of the total number of sales here at P5 are photos. Of course the "profit" or cash value of videos still far surpasses the photo side.
.
Sure wish us old time P5 artists could get into to selling photos here ....?

Mr. Tower (P5 Chief Marketing Officer), please give us the privilege to sell stock photos under the same sales structure as videos in a few weeks?

We're working on it, guys! Photo sales are still in the works, though at the moment we're still getting the infrastructure in place to support submissions.

How are things going ? I would be interested to know if there any sales here for photographic images.

Sales for photos are pretty consistent, there seems to be a lot of interest in it among our buyers.
