37% LESS visitors in the last 3 months!

.. and my sales there reflect about the same change downward.

Anyone else going down hill with BigStock?

Well spotted! and very interesting.

This trend reflects my dismal sales also. - What a slump!

The thing is - where have the visitors gone?

Sorry, almost BME for me - one more sale and I'll tie my BME. 38 DLs so far this month with 275 total pics. With 4 days to go hopefully a few more sales will sneak through. The last 3 months are hovering at right about the same level. So for me BigStock is very consistent now - and I haven't uploaded anything in 2-3 months.

Get over Alexa stats. It's as likely to be the unpopularity of Alexa.

BME for us, but we just crested 1000 images in our port.

11 sales in September. I stopped uploading to them because of low sales and ftp that accepts only one connection at a time.

3 sales with about 430 images online... not very good for me.

Funny, this is my Best Month Ever™ at BigStock with $42 so far (with only 341 images online)
Maybe I have gotten your sales?

Second best month was last month (august) and third best february 2008.

You've trademarked Best Month Ever? Shall I stop using it now? Will I never have another one again?

D*amn, does that mean we have to write it in full everytime now

Wow, first time I've ever tried to type a curse and it wouldn't let me.

BME for me as well. Just cancel your accounts guys. I'll be more than happy to take over your sales
