Big Stock Photo

Stock Photos, Search and Download Now!

This is another very similar site to Dreamstime. it has a similar pay structure too. I have actually made about the same amount of money at Big Stock Photos as I have at Dreamstime. However, I only have 19 photos uploaded with them. One of my photos has been downloaded 63 times and another one has beren downloaded 36  times. So, I think it is slightly easier to sell your work here. The one downfall is that once you upload, Big Stock requires that you keep each file on with them for a minimum of 9 months. That is why I have uploaded a little more with Dreamstime. I would prefer to be able to delete my images at my discretion. However, images are more easily accepted here.

Pros:

1. Can make easy money on even a few uploads.
2. Special collections
3. You only need to ear $30.00 before you can receive payment.
4. Images are small to prevent theft.
5. Promote multiple websites or galleries on your profile.
6. They will promote your website or service for you on their site at your request.

Cons:

1. You must keep each accepted image up for at leat 3 months.
2. Each image must get approved and takes a couple days.

You will Make 50 cents to $3.00 per download and up to $60.00 per download each for Special Licensing downloads!
