    I have heard that Shutterstock is the easiest place to sell your stock photos because of largest customers base, but they apparently give you tiny profits like sometimes $0.10 for a picture or something insane. What are the best places to sell your pics and why?

    I know Adobe Stock is getting more popular because if you use Lightroom, you can upload directly to Adobe Stock website after you save the file. Smaller than Shutterstock but its Adobe so of course there is going to be future potential imo.

    iStockphoto was popular a few years ago but haven’t really checked it lately…

    Shutterstock is king, but you need LOTS OF FREAKIN PHOTOS to get money. You will get lost in the millions of photos they have on their library. It’s just a numbers game in the end. You can also put your photos on multiple sites if you prefer but that means non-exclusive commission.

    500px gives a nice commission. But it’s owned by China, might be a red flag.

    getting into stock photography worth it after the AI craze?

    i’ve sold on adobe stock and alamy, and the real issue is consistency more than the platform. after the ai wave, my generic travel shots basically stopped moving, but niche editorial-style stuff still gets occasional downloads. i do get annoyed when unrelated junk ends up in my notes while uploading, with urls such as https://livedealerindia.com/ and https://gravitywheel.org/ and https://dreamcatcherlive.org/ showing up from old copy paste scraps. for anyone worried about payouts, the tiny cents add up only if you have a big, well-tagged portfolio and don’t expect quick money.
