Is difficult to ascertain how much money they can earn by selling photos online, depends on several important factors, mainly on the quality and the commercial focus of the photographs, secondly, constancy in the project and the number of photos that we can make and send for sale and know well the photographs labeled with the description and the appropriate keywords, as through these words will be found by potential buyers.

Let us assume that the factors described above are met and that we have come to have 500 photos for sale in 5 Microstock agencies, such exclusivity is not mandatory in these agencies, it is understood that the 500 photos are on the 5 agencies, some agencies have accepted more photos than others, because each agency has their own preferences Microstock and not all photos will be accepted at all sites, adding the total sales of our photos on the 5 agencies can estimate that the monthly income should not be less than 150 to 200 euros, and if the photos are really good, commercially speaking, probably more, sure there will always be photos that are not sold, but we will have our "champions" with a lot of sales.

It is very important to increase the number of photos for that income may increase further if we upload photos, revenues begin to decline, it is necessary to always have new pictures on our portfolio to also sell those that take more time.

There are few photographers who live exclusively on its online photo sales in major Microstock agencies is not easy, are photographers who take a long time and have managed to have a good portfolio of over 10,000 photographs, and some of them have sold more than 10,000 times and continue to sell.

The price you receive for each photo sold must say that although most of the time is very low, between 0.30 and $ 0.50 depending on the system for each agency, also sell a lot between 1 and up to 28 euros or dollars depending on the size to which the customer buys the photograph and the type of license you choose.

How you can earn by selling photos online? In summary therefore, depends on the photographer, the time you want or can spend and, above all, the photos that is capable of. It is an artistic question is a matter of knowing what kind of photos commercially sue the companies in each season and perform an original, dramatic and flawless.
