How to sell photography

Best Ways To Make Money Selling Photography:

How should I get started selling my photography online?

Photography has been a hobby if mine for years, but I never considered selling any of my pieces. I stumbled upon a few web sites that offered to help sell prints of your photos, but wanted some feedback before I get started. What web sites are the best for this type of thing? What has your experience been?

1. Wy don't you try Stock agencies ?? I was trying to sell pictures on ebay but as long you don't have 20x30 Statue of Liberty or Manhattan Skyline don't even bother.... you can sell your photos online.... there is couple very nice stock agencies online... you should try: One of the best is: ShutterStock its not easy to get accepted there... u need to send 10 pictures and if you good enough u can start selling your pictures, very good earnings http://submit.shutterstock.com/?ref=1383... Than you have Istock.com Probably the most popular Stock website... here its very easy to get accepted status but than picture selection is amazing... thay just taking really the best pictures... very good earnings Istock.com if you contact me I`ll send you invitation.... next place is http://www.dreamstime.com/resp363134 Dreamstime is also great place to sell pictures... there is no qualification you just start sending pictures and than selling... they accepting just a very good pictures.... not bad earning if you have good portfolio Next place is: Fotolia http://us.fotolia.com/partner/200422333 no qualification, vry fast process of picture review, lots of users, earning not to high but good for everyone who just starting stock adventure.... low earnings and the last one is www.123rf.com Kind of new stock... very easy to get pictures accepted, very nice stock, but earning for the first year are not to high than is little better... but still low earnings..... Im giving you links with my promo code if you will creat account using my links I`ll get couple cents and nothing more so don't worry... you can use them or use just a first part with stock address :) Im not talking here about stocks like: ALAMY or GettyImages those two are big stok agencies and not recomended for new photographers.... actually GettyImages is impossible to get accepted and start selling pictures on their website.... For first year you maybe not gonna make huge money but its not that bad it took me about a year to build good portfolios now money r really not bad :)
2. stock agencies will sell your full quality pics to someone who can reproduce it infinitely for only a couple dollars, where they might turn it around and make themselves a couple thousand if your picture is really that good......dont waste your pics on them, sell prints yourself
