After the photo is approved, you do not have to do anything further. Important is that your keywording and title make it findable. Also your photo has to be of quality and subject that someone wants to buy it. Remember, in some categories there are millions of photos. Yours must stand out and be found.

Hi @Ranger25368074xlmb ,

As said by @RALPH_L , you do not need to do anything. However, the more you upload is the more likely it is to get sales. You need variety, and volume and to keep your account active so that the algorithm keeps you current. If you wish to share your files link on social media it's ok but not a requirement for sales.

Hello. How many photos should an average portfolio have per dollar earned? For example, I now have 36 accepted photos in my portfolio. And only one sale. Is this a normal indicator? Or is it not enough for so many photos?

I don't think this is data that any of the community members have access to. The sales per image are very dependent on the types of images you're uploading. If your portfolio consists of kittens, puppies, sunsets and flowers (all categories which are very over-represented in Adobe already), your sales will be low. If your portfolio consists of current content in competitive categories, your sales per image might be much higher. Check out the "Artist Hub" link in your Dashboard to see what is in demand and what is selling.
