If you are new to stock or would like a refresher on keyword strategy, the newest post in the Adobe Stock Blog has some very useful information about keywording. In my opinion, it's well worth a read: Keywording Cheat Sheet | Adobe Blog

Thanks Matt,

I'm trying to learn more about keywording and I'm trying to see where my images place in search catagories, but even when I search by image I can't find my images. Is there a filter that doesn't show your own images?

[MatHayward]

It cannot be over-emphasized how important keywords are.

The only filter that would prevent you from seeing your own content is if the the image or video is potentially offensive and is behind the safe search filter. You would need to uncheck safe search to see it.

Remember that you cannot search for an image using the title. Only keywords or the actual image number can be used for search in Adobe Stock.

I've been trying to search using the first 6 or so keywords and still can't find an image that has already sold. What am I doing wrong?
