Author Topic: Statistical analysis of Adobe Stock portfolios (Read 5229 times)

Hello,

I have published an article with an in-depth statistical analysis of all Adobe Stock portfolios, you can read it here in my blog:
https://www.alltageinesfotoproduzenten.de/2019/06/05/analyse-der-portfolios-bei-fotolia-und-adobe-stock/

It's in German though, but the numbers speak for itself and Google Translate might help as well.

Best regards,
Robert

Very interesting, thanks for sharing!!!

BTW how do you collect all that data to analyze? Do you write a script that craws all the pages on that website? If so, what computer language do you use? I don't program at all, but have some interest to learn a little.

Thanks for sharing this (Google translate did a functional job for the most part - I do not speak German)

In general, your findings didn't surprise me - this sort of pattern has been around since the early days of microstock sites. A small number of contributors responsible for the bulk of the sales. Huge numbers of "contributors" who never get beyond a handful of images.

Not sure what it means for people considering starting in 2019 as far as how hard it is now versus a decade ago to climb those ranks if you build a large portfolio. I'm guessing it's harder now

I would certainly think so as well.
