New to Pond5 | Pricing help

Friends, i am new to Pond5, i submitted my first footage and had a query on pricing. I posted a 30second 2K footage of a waterfall and the upload was accepted, and the price is set to $15. Is this correct, i have seen other footages of similar kind with a more price tag, i don't want to get this price increased but want to make sure it is set correctly. Any heads-up is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

you set the price you want when tagging and titling the video pricing is around half way down the page $15 is very low in price but your choice of course

When I upload videos, I almost always go with the prices that Pond5 suggest. Those prices are always $50 for 4K and $25 for HD. (My one exception is a viral HD video that's earned more than $4,000 on YouTube -- I have that priced at $80.) I have never seen Pond5 suggest a price of $15.

I could see charging more if you hire actors and pay for other things, such as renting a conference room. But for a simple thing that I shoot in my yard or a park, Pond5's prices are okay with me.

I would set the standard price like on other agencies...79$hd 179$ 4k...maybe a little less seen the 50% reveneu here at pond5..
Low price doesn't help you to sell...it's all about content...
