Hi, I am also a contributor to Pexels. With 3.65 K downloads I have never made a penny but that's perfectly fine . With over 406 K views that means about 403 K did not care for my pics. It is a humbling experience . I am just an amateur who enjoys my hobby.

Hey Larry, Don't jump to conclusions. Your work is probably awesome! Maybe people are just checking out Pexels, or copying & pasting the photos. Another thing to consider is that there are so many amazing photos on Pexels, it's hard to make a decision. I don't even pick the best photos sometimes. Sometimes, I pick something just for the activity being depicted, or the colors that I need. From all creators, thank you for contributing to Pexels, Larry. I'm sure your content is better than you think.

I think a lot of the photos downloaded off Pexels are downloaded by people who don't have spare money to donate, like KZfaq channels that aren't monetised, or for school projects, or small businesses that are trying to put together a basic website. I'm sure they really appreciate the image, but just don't have the earnings to donate.

You have achieved your goal. I found some very interesting photos of you in Pexels, and through your profile in Pexels I was directed and curious to take a look at your KZfaq channel! 👍🙂 You have a new subscriber to your channel 🙂. By the way... one Question/suggestion I want to ask is Do you have any video tutorial from-start-to-end for instructing people of the technical things that someone must take into his consideration for taking one photo for the Stock photography websites? what sizes should the photos must be, What they usually accept and what they reject in a photo?... Thank you

Incorrect. As much as I love your content, you can make money off pexels. You can do this via donations, and they have recently added new features that let you add stock photos that you have to pay for. By this, I mean you can publish pictures that other people would have to pay for to use. Pexels, in my opinion, is one of the best stock websites.

I was kind of ambivalent about the benefits of Pexels for my stock port but now that SS has been giving 10 cent downloads, have been uploading a bit more to Pexels because there isn't a whole lot of difference between 10 cents and zero. I also like that I can get whackier with my edits on Pexels instead of boring noiseless edits for sites like SS.

Do you earn only 10c on SS? I earn there up to $100 for photo not mentioning Videos... By giving away your work for free you not giving reason to customers to buy them on SS. You shoot your own feet especially that for me to get $100 customer have to pay over $300 for license.

@@lurker668 No, I make more than 10 cents on some pictures but the majority tend to be between 10 to 15 cents. And I'm level 4. Also, customers search for pictures not photographers. I have less than 1 percent of my work on Pexels and some of the work I have on Pexels has sold on shutterstock (even after I have put them up on Pexels) for a decent amount. So there's no relation between the two.

Hey Olly, thanks for making this vid. I am getting into photography, and I already use Pexels for my blog. I haven't donated yet but I do follow some artists on Twitter and Insta because I liked what I saw. So it does drive the traffic, you're spot on. Very insightful vid, thanks for your time!

I think it's a very good idea, Because to earn some money form istock or shutters. you need really high qualitty and really expencive equipment, to reach high standarts of selection. I want to publish my photos, and let the buyers to decide whether they gona pay or not. I believe that with pexel, deviantart and such free sites we will break the monopoly of shutterstock and others.

Great video, do you still need to have all the descriptions and tags in pexels? and make sure people find your photos when they search in pexels doing SEO? or can we just upload the photos and pexel does the job? thanks
@balajiquiz
@balajiquiz 4 жыл бұрын
It's helpful to have a few tags (there's no space for descriptions) but Pexels also has a curation team that pick the pictures they like from your feed for promotion. Whent hat happens, they do all the SEO tagging anyway. In fact, I learnt a lot from the tags the curators do on Pexels for my own microstock ports because they do hit the mark.
