If you are a budding photographer then it is possible to make some extra dosh by selling your best photographs online through microstock websites.
How Does It Work?
You simply upload your best photos to a mircostock website and an approval team will check them. Then if approved you can start earning money from each photograph sold. Easy…
How Much Can I Earn?
It very much depends on the quality of your photographs, however some people do earn a decent amount.
What Sites Can I Sell From?
There are a large number of sites that you can sell from. Some of the most well known are:
Starting Out
Before signing up for any of these sites you should have at least 10 decent photographs at the best picture quality your camera can take (most sites require at least 2MP or above). You should also check out what pictures they actually need. For example, iStockphoto have a needed photos page and Fotolia have a top sales section.
Probably the best site to start off with is Fotolia, as you can immediately upload your photos and the approval team seems to be not very strict.
