A good tip is to add the key words in the meta data of the image in processing that way if your uploading to multiple platforms its already embedded in the file . Thanks for another helpful clip

You can also write the description and title in the metadata. With most stock sites, that data will also carry over and fill the appropriate fields when you upload the image, just like with the keywords.

This! I only just realised this, and now I add all my meta data in Lightroom before I upload, and the keywords fill automatically.

Shutterstock includes all the words in your description in their search algorithm, so you don't have to repeat them as keywords. It's a great way of adding extra words when you hit your maximum of 50 keywords.

Another thing I hear is the first 5 words of your description is the most important. Don't ramble on and get to the key description at the end, it loses searchability. Describe it best in the first 5 or 6 words... then ramble on afterwards if you so wish. :))

Hey, Thanks for making good videos that explain stock footage well, I started last year after seeing your videos. I do have a question you might know the answer for, is there a way to batch - attach keywords? Example: You have a folder with 100 stockvideos, you upload them all, and the spreadsheet is filled in with all the information about name, keywords and everything, Is there a way to automate this process, so I don't need to go copy paste keywords to all the different sites (pond5, shutterstock, videoblocks ect.) I've been looking around the net for the information but I've not been able to find any other solution than using "Blackbox" when someone will tag for you and ultimately you lose some money. Thanks again.
@CreativeIncome
@CreativeIncome 5 жыл бұрын
Glad I was able to inspire you. My favorite way to do it is using CSV spreadsheets. Kind of an excel file that you upload and let the agency know which file should get which metadata. I don't have a public video about that but I'm adding a lesson about it in my online course. But you should also be able to find text explanations on how to do it in shutterstock help pages.
