Acceptance into Stock inventory is no guarantee that you will sell anything. You're competing with millions & millions of other assets.

File size is meaningless if the content isn't what customers want.

For more help, we need to see your Stock portfolio. Perhaps you're not making optimal use of titles, keywords and descriptions so customers can find your content in searches.

Several possible problems: you are competing with many other submissions. Search for your asset type using some of your keywords and see how much competition you have. Your titles and keywords ma6 not adequately describe your assets so they are not appearing in the Buyer's search results.

Don't worry too much about the sales, as they say, the competition here is extraordinary.

I was also quite ambitious when I first started, the lowest retirement salary in my country is around $380, I was motivating myself by saying "I will earn at least $400 per month from this job".

Where do you earn $400 per month? 🙂 At the end of 14 months, the money in my account is $46.36. I haven't received any payment, I don't know how much tax will be deducted if I request payment, and how much I will get after the brokerage firm takes its commission.

When this is the case, I now approach this job more calmly and without stress. It is very enjoyable to work, but it is also a low-earning business model due to the extraordinary competition, in my opinion.

Taxes, if there are any, get deducted from your royalty, so what you have in your account is net, at least from the Adobe side. You are, however, liable to pay your taxes in your country. That is dependent on your local laws. You need to check with a tax advisor.

With "brokerage firm” do you mean PayPal or similar? Here too, the deductions are country-specific. In some countries, PayPal requires a professional account (probably due to local laws), and those are not free. I can (still) use my private account, where the money gets deposited, and as I use that money to pay my acquisitions via PayPal, I do not have fees.

As for the rest: unfortunately, Adobe stock did not recognise my genius, and I'm earning very little too, but my retirement money is a bit more than yours, so I can do a decent living.

Yes, not Paypal but others (Paypal's activities in Türkiye were stopped in 2016 due to not being able to meet the conditions required by Türkiye's Banking Regulation and Supervision Agency - as far as I can see, those who join from Türkiye are generally receiving payments with Payoneer now).

As for pensions, yes, the situation is very bad here. Retirees generally receive the lowest monthly salary, $375 at the current exchange rate, but the rent for a house with minimum humane conditions is $385.

Unfortunately, people have started collecting leftovers from garbage and markets. (The crime rates, which are a natural result of the economic collapse, have also increased tremendously [primarily pickpocketing, fraud, mugging, theft]; therefore for those who are thinking of vacationing in Turkey, it would be much more logical to choose another country in terms of safety of life and property).

We're supposed to know the answer to this how? Do you submit AI? Photographs? Vectors? How varied is your portfolio? How low is low are your sales? Are you creating assets that are in demand? Could your titles and keywords need improvement? Sorry, too many variables and we'd only be guessing.
