Two More Ways to Sell Your Photos


4.    FeaturePics.com – For the more budget conscious client looking for a photo, the prices on FeaturePics are a bit lower than many of the other stock photography sites.  That does not mean that the photographer does not get paid though.  The site pays 50% of the license fee to the photographer.  You do have to wait for your account to accrue at least $50 before you can request that your earnings be sent to you.  There is also a 7-day holding period on funds after a sale is completed.

5.    Dreamstime.com – This site is incredibly selective about what gets added to their database, so you should not be surprised if some of your images are rejected.  The review board will tell you why the photo was rejected though, so you can improve it and resubmit it at a later time.  The benefit of their selectivity is that they have high sales rates, so if your picture or pictures are selected then you will likely be making money in a relatively short period of time.  Before you can start submitting your photos for review, you must fill out an application.  Once a photo is downloaded a certain amount of times, then it moves up to a higher rate level.  Photographers receive 30-50% of the price and an additional 10% if it is an exclusive image.

Now You Know a Little More About Where to Sell Photos Online

Photography can be quite profitable if you know how to get your photos into the hands of the right people.  The Internet has opened up a world of opportunity to amateur photographers to get their photographs viewed by a much wider audience.  As you break into selling your photos on stock photography websites, it is important to understand that you may need to upload your photos on a few different sites to help you get a jumpstart at selling.  After using a few different sites you will likely decide that one is your favorite, and you may want to begin to use the site exclusively.  Why not get paid for doing what you love?
