Here's one year on DT I hope those subscription sales aren't coming back to stay because I really didn't miss them.

It was so nice to have images sell for 1.50 and more.

Sales have slowed to a trickle one or two a day. I have a small port so sometimes I'm surprised they find my images, 203 so far among 3 million. Real Italy images and vineyards are good for me.

wine and vineyards

What about you whats your first year average been?

You have a good, steady trickle of sales, which is exactly what you need. Before you know it, it'll have added up to a nice piggybank. Good luck.

Well I've been here only six months, and my portfolio is smaller than yours and you've sold a LOT more. But here are my statistics:
January 2008 1 $0.60
February 2008 1 $0.60
March 2008 3 $1.12
April 2008 8 $1.40
May 2008 9 $0.80
June 2008 5 $1.39

I feel good about these numbers and hope that they get even better! Your experience gives me hope that that will be forthcoming. Thanks Donna!

Thanks mailthepic for the encouragement. Your port is really good and always growing.

To me things are pretty smooth from the very first month I join. Every new uploads bring in more sales each month, this proof the more you upload the better you are. I found those subscriptions sales very useful. Editors who use this program they have to buy picture every day. Therefore they will keep looking for useful pictures to upload everyday, this eventually make them cover more detail than other.
In short I would say, when they found your picture useful they will not stop there. They will dig into your folio and run a full search on it. They have friends and other, this kind of expose are what we need.
I have at less a minimum of 10% of subscription sales everyday (0.30 or 0.36 cent). but I still love it in some way (Ha..Ha..).
