My sales jumped about 50% this month suddenly. Anybody seeing similar sales increase this month?

My ranking stayed about the same, but little better.

Not especially......unless you have a large portfolio or income I wouldn't read too much into one months figures.

dbvirago · « **Reply #2 on:** October 30, 2015, 19:02 »

Not really a jump for me, but a continuation of the upward graph of the last few months. Another BME.

sharpshot · « **Reply #3 on:** October 30, 2015, 19:10 »

FT is still almost dead for me.

stockmarketer · « **Reply #4 on:** October 30, 2015, 19:43 »

Yes, Fotolia is indeed up by a big amount this month. AdobeStock/FT is on its way to the top spot.

indyedge · « **Reply #5 on:** October 30, 2015, 20:11 »

I had a good month at Shutterstock but Fotolia did much better. It's been great since Adobe took over and I like their reviewers much better also

sgoodwin4813 · « **Reply #6 on:** October 30, 2015, 21:00 »

Yes, up about 50%. We will see if it continues.

I am experiencing a bump in sales at FT. Sales had been going down gradually since I no longer submit new images. However October sales are up about 25% over September.

helloitsme · « **Reply #8 on:** October 30, 2015, 21:41 »

I think it's clear that Adobestock is accelerating these days. Most creators use Adobe softwares. So, it's understandable. It will get much better from here for Adobestock/Fotolia in my opinion.

sharpshot · « **Reply #9 on:** October 31, 2015, 07:32 »

So is it just me that has seen no improvement? Starting to get paranoid

Steveball · « **Reply #10 on:** October 31, 2015, 08:12 »

50% drop since Adobe!

hansenn · « **Reply #11 on:** October 31, 2015, 10:27 »

while we're talking of new ventures,
is anyone getting any money with the new flickr?

as they projected a target market of " licensing niches like mobile photography, since the number one camera on the site is an Apple iPhone."

are we seeing a rush of mob photographers like yuri predicted

Elenathewise · « **Reply #14 on:** October 31, 2015, 16:05 »

No noticeable change for me on FT. Actually 15% down this month compared to September.
People reporting a "jump" - are we talking regular sales or is it due to ELs?

indyedge · « **Reply #15 on:** October 31, 2015, 17:10 »

My revenues were up 50% over September. I had quite a few credit sales. I hope it continues

ComfortEagle2095 · « **Reply #16 on:** October 31, 2015, 17:57 »

For me FT has been up significantly every month since May. Before that it was flat for like two years. Now it's 4x what it was before May (but I only have a small portfolio there and it's always been one of my bottom sites--looks like that may change).

Rinderart · « **Reply #17 on:** October 31, 2015, 20:22 »

Gonna take a lot to be BME again But. fotolia is coming back very Nicely for me.

Zero Talent · « **Reply #18 on:** October 31, 2015, 20:46 »

Yep! BME on FT!
Nice 37% revenue growth, nice RPD!
A clear #2, shaming IS both on revenue and on RPD (see attached).

I don't never EVER get ELs on FT. I've had some above average days on FT this month, but most days are still pretty average. And I seriously doubt that I will have ever again a BME there. Would love to be wrong about that tho. C'mon Adobe, Papa needs a new car...!

Not just you. No significant change. Same old same old......

I like new FT

Nikovsk · « **Reply #22 on:** November 01, 2015, 05:50 »

Noticeable rise in revenue since August, 3 BME in a row.

Still only 1/3 of SS but looking good.

Not that much, but about 25 - 30% down. October, however, best month since Adobe took over, but mostly from some ELs

On the other hand, October has always been the best month of the year.

banna · « **Reply #24 on:** November 01, 2015, 08:30 »

just 20% up. But winter and christmas season on all sites always 20% and more better.
