Hello.. I have pictures that are sold for $0.25 and other pictures for $0.70, and I do not understand what is the factor that determines this profit, and does I have anything to do with it, or is it beyond my control? When I achieve higher sales, does this increase the chance of my photos appearing in search records as a whole, or just the photo that was sold? An additional question: Are there a large number of people who earn more than $200 a month from selling images prepared with artificial intelligence? I know that the topic is relative and varies from one person to another, but please give me an approximate answer. If there are people who earn this amount, do I need to make more than 2000 images? So I can start earning these amounts? Because I posted approximately 350 photos and earned less than a dollar a week, and I did not know if this was a good start or not, so I felt frustrated because I expected larger amounts... Thank you for your help
You don't get to set prices. That's beyond your control.
Customers pay based on type of asset, Premium or Regular, and which plan they have.
And also which licenses they purchase -- Standard, Enhanced, Extended, Limited or Editorial.

There are probably many Contributors earning hundreds of dollars a month, but Adobe does not publish any such statistics other than what you can see on the Insights tab on your Dashboard page. But, as @Nancy OShea said, it's not a get-rich-quick scheme. It requires a significant investment of your time to learn the tools, create assets, inspect and correct the inevitable AI flaws, upscale, add titles and keywords and submit. You need to keep up a steady stream of submissions, while minimizing the rejections, of high-quality assets in unique categories that are not over-represented already in the Adobe Stock database. You'll have to decide for yourself if the small royalty payments and uncertain income stream is worth the investment of your time.

To answer your specific question about the size of your portfolio, 350 assets, unless they are somehow extremely unique and compelling, is much too small of a portfolio to achieve sales in the range of hundreds of dollars a month.

Based only on anecdotal information that I've read here and there, I'd say you'd need a minimum of 6,000+ GOOD assets before you'd start seeing a substantial increase in sales. And even then, they may not be regular. You might have a good week, followed by a bad week, just like any brick and morter business.
If an image is sold, I believe it will appear closer to the top of any searches for similar subjects and will remain there as long as sales continue.
There is no way of knowing how AI sales compare to the sales of photographs. But keep in mind that buyers do have the option of turning off AI from appearing in searches.

Please do not repeat your questions in seperat posts.
Here again is my answer in your other post.
To earn $200 a month you have to sell up to 600 images a month. That is on the average of 20 images a day. This is only possible if your images are of a topic that is in demand, the competition for this genre is not to high, your images can be found because of proper titles and keywords, and your images stand out above the competition.
Search for your images using search terms customers might use. Are your images shown in the top 20 displayed images. No? Then adjust your titles and keywords. If your images are not found, they will not be sold.
