Spring

Hi,

I created thousands of images related to spring and uploaded them to my profile a couple of months ago. But I noticed that the number of downloads is very limited.
Is there still an opportunity to download spring photos?

In two and a half years (6000 assets, 99% acceptance rate), I've yet to submit an image that didn't take a bare minimum of 10 minutes to edit, not including creating titles and keywords. Yes, I use a title/keyword AI too, but I revise the titles and eliminate or add keywords. So that's more time spent on the submission process. Granted, your 3600 assets in two months pales in comparison to what contributors have uploaded in bulk in the past. In any event, there is little wonder why Adobe has introduced a means to refuse assets that are similar and to cull the entire database of assets that should not have been submitted, much less approved, in the first place. Text to image AI is killing text to image AI.

Which goes to prove, at least some of the time, that uploading thousands of images at once isn't going to fill your portfolio overnight. 3 to 6 submissions per day for AI (I'm assuming you're submitting AI) is adequate.

If you submitted thousands of AI images at a time, they are no doubt in very competitive categories. Have you tried searching in the Buyer portal using the keywords you used? If your images don't show up in the first few pages of results, Buyers are never going to see them. Review your titles and keywords to be certain that they are thorough and accurate.

Yes, I did a keyword search, but often my photos don't show up on the first pages.

"Yes, I did a keyword search, but often my photos don't show up on the first pages." If your keyword search returned thousands of competitive images, and yours are way down in the search results, they are unlikely to ever be found by Buyers. You need to look for more unique topics.

Yes. Maybe you should consider quality instead of quanity. My conclusion when you say you uploaded thousands of images with limited downloads. That can be because the images are not in demand, there are too many similar assets in the database, the quality of your images is not good enough or due to bad metadata your assets are not being found. In which more time will not change this.

I think the quality of all the images is good and created by AI, the dimensions are all 3072 x 1536, and the keywords and titles are good and created using specialized software,

"I think the quality of all the images is good and created by AI, the dimensions are all 3072 x 1536, and the keywords and titles are good and created using specialized software," Two problems in what you just said: 1) quality comprises much more than just resolution and pixel count and can include focus, lighting, artifacts, drawing errors, exposure, etc. 2) keywords created by an automated tool are usually deficient. They can include keywords that don't have anything to do with the image and they can also exclude important keywords that clearly identify the image. You can't automate the whole process and expect that it's "good enough". It's not.
