Low Sales Despite Quality Content – Seeking Guidance

Hello Adobe Stock Community,

I hope you're all doing well. I’ve recently started actively contributing to my Adobe Stock account, which has been inactive for a while. Currently, I have 1,610 accepted photos, and I believe the content is strong and relevant. However, my sales are extremely low—barely $1–2 per week—even though I see other contributors reporting good results.

I’m wondering if the following factors might be affecting my earnings:

  • My account is older and had many rejected files in the past.

  • I’ve only recently started uploading consistently.

  • My portfolio might not be getting enough visibility due to past inactivity or rejection history.

Could these be reasons for poor performance? Or is there something else I should be looking into—like SEO, tagging strategy, or portfolio curation?

I’d really appreciate any insights or suggestions from experienced contributors or Adobe team members. Thank you in advance!

Best regards, Mukhtar

In activity could be one possible reason, since trends change over time. Assets I submitted over two years ago (unless sold regularly from the beginning) sell fewer times than new ones. Rejection history is not likely to play a part.
