No sales, No views

Hey there,

in February I uploaded 16 new Footage and to this day I have no views...
I think there are plenty of interesting things there. For example:

I also have no single sales in the last five months.
I wanna ask what happened? It's a mistake on my side,
or it's standard now?

16 footage??there are people with thousands getting few sales a month...go figure....

I had the same problem and was told I was selling my clips for too low a price. They were right so I upped my prices to $89 per clip and have had three sales so far. If I were you I'd consider doing the the same. I think $89 might be too low for your drone footage, not everyone has the abilty or means to shoot this and thus should be a higher price I would think.

You have some very good clips!
But like other said, you need big numbers here.
Also video sales are particularly slow to come: it generally takes 6 months at least for a file to sell (while photo often sells the same day)

Might want to try shooting in 4K, all the latest drones are 4K now.

7 million clips here and tens of million more elsewhere. Look at the numbers. It's a number game as well as quality. But more important the clips have to be what a buyer needs. No one knows from day to day which clips they are ... not even the agencies.

Maybe sharing the links to your works can help increase your sales.

That single-track-forrest is a great shot - what drone is that - and are you using track-modes or free flight?

It's a Cablecam dude;) I have to..

I'm also wondering the same thing. I have 200+ photo's (I'm not experienced enough to do video) on another site and have sold 60+ photos in less than 6 months. Here - when I type in the keywords I used - my photos are not even on the first few pages - Even if I view by lowest price my photos don't appear. Is it possible that the system doesn't show me my own photos? Am I doing something wrong? I don't do this for a living like some, so I'm really never going to have tens of thousands of photos (or eventually videos?) on line, but it seems to be a good way to supplement my income when I retire...

Any advice will be appreciated. Do others promote their images/videos? If yes, are you using social media (FB, Twitter and the like?). Do you promote yourself to design firms? Let me know.
