Stock photo earnings comparison August 09

Posted on Sep 1, 2009 by r.m. in statistics | 2 Comments

August was quite stable but with a greater number of photos in portfolio, so the return per image is reducing with the exception of Dreamstime (Best Month Ever). iSyndica Analytics:

    Hi, thanks for this. I'm a little confused at how your numbers pan out.

    When you have an RPD of 1,40, does that mean you earned 1,40 per image in that portfolio in that month? We are setting up a portfolio, and that information would be useful.
