So nothing to show for Q1 as far as earnings. I am still basically exclusive at PhotoShelter (I have like 5 images on Dreamstime) and my portfolio is up to 73 images but I have not really be shooting much with only stock in mind. I have some good ideas I want to shoot and hopefully can get some time to shoot them in the next couple of months.
Work flow I have pretty much nailed at this point. PhotoShelter’s Aperture plugin rocks! I can go from import to upload really quickly. What I really need is key wording help. I was browsing around iStock the other day and see images with like 30-40 keywords, most of mine end up in the 10-20 range. Not sure what resources I can find to help with that though. Any ideas on key wording would be greatly appreciated.

I remember when I first keyworded my picture about three years ago, it took me two days to think of keywords, select the categories and submit it… LOL
Not many things changed since then, but I do it a lot quicker and I just fill in the IPTC fields in Adobe Bridge and then submit to the agencies I select.
I just started to work seriously and sistematically on my stocks and do a monthly check-up for sales and pictures submitted.
