To increase your sales everyone is asking this Qs of themselves.
Make sure to provide room for copy/ text for future buyers.

Consider shooting vertical. Many people might disagree with me; however, we are going in the direction of people consuming things online on their phone.

Make sure to provide space around the image.

AS AN Exmaple
Research before taking photos. For example “flowers” over super oversaturated. However, let s say you dig deep enough you might find a niche that has few images of a specific flower in a specific setting.

Keep in mind Keywords matter. The order of your keywords matter. Titles of images matter. 

Get property release forms before takin images of private property and landmarks
Get the right release forms.

Cheers

Hi, I'm selling beginner stock photos. Could you please guide me on how to upload photos that meet the requirements to avoid any violations, and how to get paid? Thank you.

Before submitting content to Stock, compare your best quality work with current inventory:

• Does Stock contain many competing keyword assets -- a few hundred, a few thousand, or 10 million?
• Is yours better than what Stock is selling?
• As a customer, would you buy it?
• What would you use it for commercially?

That should help you decide which assets to submit to Stock. 

There’s no such thing as a Premium account.  

The “Premium & 3D Collection” is hand curated by Adobe from a select group of artists & agencies, at Adobe’s invitation only. See below for more details.

Sales come from customers who want what you’re selling and are able to find it in keyword searches. To get noticed, your work should offer customers something unique that nobody else is offering. 

Read your Contributor User Guide for details about content requirements.

Good luck.

Here is my formula:

-Love shooting, for the love of doing it. If money is your main driver, you will not be happy with that for some time. This is a delayed gratification game.

-Set personal goals (realistic goals) on how many images you upload monthly, and be consistent.

-Be your toughest critic. If too often you're asking other people what’s wrong with your rejected photos, you’re not being your toughest critic. 

-Shoot shoot shoot, always shoot more than you need, then choose the very best. Anyone can take a great photo, only a few can shoot great photos consistently, and that requires slowing down and paying attention to everything you are seeing.

Best of luck to you! 

Titles and keywords are the primary tool by which Buyers find your images. Make sure they are accurate and thorough. Read blogs, study trends, research what buyers are looking for.

Images and/or individuals represented in the Premium section are hand-selected by Adobe by invitation. There is no way to actually apply for a Premium account.

You increase sales by providing quality assets that are in demand and by carefully titling and keywording your assets prior to submission.
