Income

It is one of those questions that cannot be answered. Some earn well with a small excellent portfolio of in-demand images, others require thousands of images and still others earn very little regardless of whether they have a few or 10,000+ images.

Hi @DailyLifeImages ,

There is no set or estimated volume to earn $500/month. In addition to volume, your earnings depends greatly on demand, quality and keywording - with the greatest emphasis on demand which is highly unpredictable since this varies. 

Therefore, no one can say.

You always have those theoretical questions. I guess that $500/month would be generated with around 650-800 sales/month.

You should check that with your sales now, and with the number of assets that you have currently. I would guess that the development is not linear, but that more assets will lead to much more sales. But for the exercise, you can just interpolate linearly.

Hi,

That depends on many factors. As Jill pointed out you have to have many Images in your portfolio, the Images must be of good quality and hopefully many people want those Images. Keep in mind that companies often look for images to advertise their products and services, advertising campaigns or articles should be supported with images, etc. This means that images should be used as widely as possible so that they can be found and sold as often as possible.
It is hard to say how much you need, because its an ongoing process and you will produce good Images in a regular basis in order to keep up with the demand. Hope that helps a bit.

What quantity are you referring to?  How many assets does it take you to earn $500 per month ?
