Nowadays it is very easy for students to make money online. Anyone can make money online. hopefully I'm not really obnoxious but it might be a little hard okay so I have a friend makes a really good part-time income by selling her photos online.
she it's a professional photographer so she doesn't do this as her career but if you're interested in getting into this I'm gonna list ten of the highest paying websites that she uses to make more thana thousand dollars a month on these online platform. if you're already a photographer then I think this video is right up your alley okay let's go before we get into the ten website let's just go over to some basic tips and tricks in general to make the most amount of money that you can selling you your photography on stock photography websites so just before.
we start I do not want to over hype any of this most people are not going to make a full-time income like she does what it's pretty part-time income because $1000 is pretty part time but she doesn't make it passively but I don't want to over type any of this because she took years and years to get to where she is and she has over 20,000 photos online.
also if you're already a professional photographer you can just skip this part because this is gonna be for the noobs in the house like myself my first tip is not only high quality photos are going to be accepted any low resolution photos that are blurry are not going to be accepted and don't even waste your time my second tip is obviously.
if you're gonna have high quality photos you need high quality gear so a professional camera sometimes you can get away with an iPhone X because they have a really good camera on it.
but most cameras on your phone aren't going to be high quality enough but however I don't recommend just buy the camera to sell your photos online. but if you already have a camera lying around and you kind of want to play around with it and learn some things and make money maybe on the way.
then this could be a good option my third tip is you might need release forms. if you're gonna photograph models and buildings you need to have their permission obviously. if you're gonna put their face online and make money off photos also are not going to get accepted.
if they have brands in the background names or license plates for example. if you're taking a picture of a city background which is so it's pretty well but there's an Nike sign in the background or an apple sign they are not going to accept it my fourth tip is honestly.
if you don't I'm posting thousands of pictures don't expect to make that much money because there are millions of photos that are uploaded every single day and my fifth tip and last one is before you spend your money that just made on your photographs make sure you take out a little bit for tax.
because these is a form of income you will have to think about taxes so. if you're interested in learning more about how to be successful selling them photographs online.
let me know in the comments below and we can make a part 2 but this video is just gonna be into the highest main website okay. let's get started okay one more thing sorry what avery important tip my photographer told me is that. if you want to make a lot of money you have to capture with intention for example photographs that sell really well including food health beauty fitness money business etc.
I could go on these photos sell really really well so you should stick into these categories if you want to sell a lot of photos so the first website is pond 5pond5 is reported to have the world's largest collection of stock footage hosting more than a ten point five million clips as early as 2020 they give you 50% of this sale which is actually quite high compared to a lot of the other websites.
we're going to talk about and they focus on professional royalty-free photographs pictures and sounds what I kind of seen on pond 5 is that a lot of people are very happy with them and they have thousands of five-star reviews on you go on their website and play around with the photographs that are doing quite well and kind of what their standard okay.
my second website is called All my has over 155 million stock images the vectors videos and 360-degree panoramic images you can be along one of the next photographs on All my so what I read on many many many stock photography forums is that All my used to be a little bit better than it isn't now. but it really just depends on your photos there are some photographers like Ryan Harris that makes over $100,000 a year just on this one website and Jim West who have made over seven hundred thousand dollars on all my photos so it is possible.
but there also are many people that were with me $25 a month but on their website they usually they pay a40 percent royalty per photo which will be effective starting February 2020right now.it's 50 percent but they are going to lower to 40 percent in February2020 my third website is Eye seems to be huge among the photographer community.
if you just scroll on Google you can see I am is a site photographers are having a lot of real success with you will always receive 50% of there venue of your photo the amount of the photo sales depends on the license purchase social license so for $20 per photo and web licenses so from $50not too shabby okay. my next website is Getty I'm sure you've heard of Getty.
it's really really popular on average if Getty approves your submission your content will be worth anywhere between$300 and $500 Getty will pay you 20 to 30% of royalty perfect photo sold so.
if your photo sells for $300 times 20% that would be $60 about right $60 get a $60yep $60 so if you sell three photos a month times 60 of the twenty percent royalty on the photo you will be getting one hundred and eighty dollars a month.
if you were to sell three so those are goals I think our lot manageable okay my next website is one two three RF one two three RF has millions of stock photos vectors video clips and music files at some price low prices this website pays you upon the more photos you can upload the more money you're gonna make so.
if you only have 250 photos and less you're only gonna make about 30% per sale which is a little bit on the low end but.
if you have a million photos or lots not a lot the photos for example you can make up to 60% of royalty per photo which is actually quite a bit my next website is I stock pays you fifteen to forty five percent depending on the photo. but they do offer up to 22 percent to 45 percent for exclusivity so.
if you only want to work on this website you can have a little bit of a higher rate for royalties my next.
website is the shutterstock probably one of the ugly or platforms but Shutterstock is definitely.
if not the most popular and well known site for royalty-free photos so definitely have the traffic to their website you can earn up to $120 or image download but on our website it does say that Shutterstock will initially pay you twenty five cents every time your image is downloaded and then it.
raises to thirty three cents then 36 then and then thirty eight cents per download but my last website is dreams time to guarantee the quality of the photos on dreams time they have a pretty thorough approval process.
but if you do get approved you can earn twenty five to fifty percent of royalty and you can earn up to sixty percent for exclusivity with their website.
if you choose to go exclusive with a dreams time they'll also pay you an extra twenty cents per photo on top of the sixty percent royalty I think that's two thousand dollars just for twenty cents of ten thousand it's outright $10,00020 cents each that's like $2,000 YUM I'll check my bath later and that's not even including the 60% that they still it for so that could be like really good. if you have that many photos so that's all I have for you guys today.
