Hamza_makhchoune - Thanks so much for the compliment, I'm very flattered! I'll certainly be uploading lots more, I'm working on them every day. I've never used SS by the way for images, I don't like the microstock model at all, my work is worth more than that. The agency I use though has now become nearly as bad unfortunately.

DavidHornchurch - Thanks for your comment. I'm surprised you say my prices are too low to be honest, as I'm someone who doesn't do the "race to the bottom" at all, as everyone ends up losing out. I price at what most seem to price theirs at for both HD and 4K. I'll look into it again though and I'll also try viewing my images using a VPN in the USA, so Pond5 doesn't show me prices in pounds. I do have the odd one priced much higher and also a few much lower, more as an experiment really just to see if either of those may license when the others don't.

Edit: I have looked again at my prices compared to others, and will increase the price of all of my better clips. Thanks for that David, I appreciate the tip.

Hamza_makhchoune,
A pricing strategy for footage and milk are different. Low prices may not earn you greater sales and profits as well. There are no differences between $11 and $75 or $110 to TV or film production company. They buy them because they need one, not because cheap one.

Yeah, I get your message and it makes sense and I am not sure if the other type of buyers will buy the footage if it is priced at a 100$. I wanted to increase the prices but I am afraid sales will just stop.

Swinging for the fences here, marked my pieces to 300, that is the price a cable network paid for a license for a work of mine a few years ago. My work is professional level and it is reasonable pricing, the low price could drive off legit buyers that have a higher end budget.
