Uploading photos. This is a time consuming process too. Choose only the best images for uploading. The best image for stock photography might be slightly different from photos that you are used to see on the walls of professional artistic photo galleries. Take a quick tour on any stock site to see what is already uploaded.

If you would like to upload images that are similar to the ones that are already up you should make your images better to stand up among other photos. You may try beat other photos in quality ;) Or you could start uploading photos that are still rare and hard to find among the photos that are already up.

NB! It is recommended to add keywords to the image metadata (properties) before uploading. Most stock sites can then receive image information and keywords automatically after upload.

Success? Few years later when you are experienced photo/image seller you might agree that this hobby has became a part of your every-day life. Even if you have not earned a lot of money you have still many good positive experiences. You may find your photos used from different parts in the World. You can improve your results when devoting yourself to photo subjects/topics that sell more often. You always can try shooting photos with better quality to build a stronger portfolio.
