I would like the ability to change the prices of my clips via the API. something where I can submit a clip id and new price, and have it set in the system. it would also need to be able to read the price of the API.
plus, read the number of page views and downloads.
if I had this, I would program my clips to change prices on a regular basis, such as incrementing the price $1 per day or decrementing the price $1 per day.
my strategy would be to start with a high price, and decrease the price by $1 per day until it has a sale, and when it has a sale, increase the price back to where it started.
I could also calculate page views per download. so if a file has a lot of downloads with a relatively low number of page views, I would know to raise the price, and vice versa.
I would keep track of pricing on my own database.
thanks

The API would be cool to have.
But I think your price strategy is flawed. It may be months before a video gets even the first view so you would have decreased the price to nothing and still won't have a sale.
Maybe if it were put in a cart without a sale but not based on days without a sale.

It really does take many many months in a vast majority of cases to even get views. Stock is a long term business.

dtiberio, give up, you have no one who believes you and your gibberish. You keep insulting the best artists that P5 has to offer. You really need to start your own agency and make another billion dollars. Since you as you stated, are a multimillionaire why stick around a place that no one respects you in the slightest.
Yes I keep getting your incoherent e-mails and site mails telling me to never comment about you, to you, about you or answer any of your questions. To never add to "your" threads and comments. YGTBSM! You really make everyone laugh. This has been the best comedy show we've seen here for a long time. LOL.

Close to the best... there have been a few others.

also, the API does not appear to support photos. I would like to see support for searching photos via the API.
also, the API does not have pricing for the video footage search results. I would like to see this, because it looks better when the person using my app to see the price before he clicks.
this is especially important because my app works on the mobile phone, and pond5 does not work by mobile phone yet, so the view does not see the pond5 information in a mobile-friendly way after he clicks.

I would value a app for sellers to watch their content more than buyers to shop. I am not sure that producers or bandwidth have progressed enough yet to make it a great buyer tool, maybe someday though. As a seller, it is a huge pain to login on a smart phone, and i wish there was an app for that. You may even make a few bucks if you sold inexpensive contributor aps.
