Increase earnings by choosing the right niche and keywords to your photos
If you are a "microstocker", that is one of the many professional and amateur photographers that round our income by selling photographs on the Internet, then you might be interested in the link listed below, these are websites that provide useful information on what are the words key that mostly affect the consumer and on the basis of which we can achieve for our photographs.
We know for example that during holiday periods, as well as during the season and during special events (sporting events, etc..) Is easier to sell photographs at issue with the event in question.
In all other cases we can rely on statistical data provided by these websites which endeavor to suggest the obvious advantage of photographs that have a high possibility of being purchased.
Ecconi few:
PhotoKeywords
One of the first websites that understand the importance of data from a microstock agency was photokeywords.com , now the site of Yuri Arcurs . The site in question helps microstock photographers to identify a series of keywords with high search frequency to be associated with their photographs.
This tool can be a valuable aid in the selection of keywords under which our images will be sought, an operation of fundamental importance for the success of sales (especially for those who are not as familiar with the English language and have difficulty insert highly specific terms).
Another site that offers a similar service can be found at findphotokeywords.com .
picNiche
Even picNiche provides real value of data from microstock agencies as may be employed simply by telling a particular keyword or keywords et al.
By linking the images to keywords associated dates, with the sales data of the photos, picNiche generates a "vote" reference that indicates how likely it is that this keyword functions for the sale of the photograph.
The site offers this service in several languages and have a tool that offers suggestions for finding keywords similar to the one just inserted, but which have received a "vote" above.
iStockCharts
iStockcharts.de is a tool created by the German Agency 21TORR founded and run by one of the main contributors of the iStockphoto site Hafemann Alexander ( Mlenny iStock ). This site tracks the downloads of individual users of iStockphoto providing a ranking of the best, Alex currently occupies the same position number 28.
The site allows you to reorder the list according to certain parameters taken directly from the data of iStockphoto. By default, users are sorted by number of downloads, you will not struggle to find Lise Gagné appear at the top (your account is marked as anonymous) with Yuri Arcurs following a short distance.
Among other data provided were: size of the portfolio, number of downloads per day, number of downloads per file and total rating for each portfolio.
Didier Kobi's Tools
On its website, Araminta Studio , Didier Kobi has created an interesting tool that shows a comparison between the major microstock photographers and their photography, in addition to other contributors who have applied to appear in the results.
It also offers the possibility to have statistical retrospective, since the site saves the data in the past for a comparison of sales over time.
This tool is pressed to create an idea of what are the photographs that sell more on microstock sites through analysis of the work of major contributors.

Am I wrong or is the translation of a post I saw on a blog in English? XD
However, it is a very good article, although I do not believe much in microstock, especially Yuri Arcurs the tool is very helpful.
It is a post Microstockdiaries.com, in my opinion the number 1 of the microstock sites. I think the Microstock much, although I realize that takes time, money and dedication.
I visited your site, we can work together, what do you think?
Hello,
I generally believe in microstock a bit ', but sometimes are rejected photos that have a level of quality far superior to some in the archive, and I think this is mainly to promote certain vendors.
What I'd like to do, and probably sooner or later I do, is spend a lot of time to create really excellent photos microstock (so that 100% will not be rejected) and send them to various sites to see how much you can earn really . Theoretically it would be possible to gain much with the passing years, but in practice it seems a little 'doubt that.
I do not know how we can work together, however my e-mail or find it in this comment on my site, write well so let's see '.
See you soon
Mark

Hello!
Personally, whether or not the originality of the article, I think it is very useful.
I was willing to experiment in this area, but I was very confused ideas.
I think that what is written here, while not exhaustive, it will be useful to many ... for me it was!
Thank you, hello
Hello Andy,
Lee's blog is definitely among the best around and certainly the best known.
I also recommend microstockinsider.com Steve Gibson, in my opinion, has quality content comparable to microstockdiaries.com.
And then, a little 'self-promotion, check out my
http://www.mystockphoto.org for news, statistics, "tools for microstockers", etc..
Microstock good to all,
roberto
