Microstock How To

I decided to write this to save some other photographers the pain of trying to piece together all the different facets of microstock.

The are several little tricks that save a lot of time and effort, most of which I didn’t learn until after mistakes were made. For anyone that is interested about microstock and wants to learn how their photos can make money for them maybe paying for some equipment here and there, then this is for you.

Stock photography is a great way to easily earn money for camera gear and help make a hobby pay for itself.

Buying and Selling Microstock photos stock
Designers, advertisers, etc need images and photographers like to sell them. Microstock provides an interface to make both sides happy. Often it is much too expensive and time consuming for designers to hire a photographer to get the picture they want. Instead they go to microstock websites where they can search for and download the images they need. Photographers upload their photos to various microstock websites, where they get reviewed and approved or rejected. Don’t forget to visit Microfoto.com

Approved photos are then put online where designers can buy them. The entire process is free for the photographer and once the photos are online, they will sit there waiting for buyers to continue to buy them, until you decide to remove them.
