Microstock: Make Money Selling Photos & Vector Art

Microstock No Comments »

Why Microstock?
Sell your creative photosDo you have a passion for illustrations or photography? Now with Microstock you can make an extra income just by selling your photos or illustrations online. I started selling my first vector art at iStockphoto and I became excited when I made my first sale of 20 cents. But things started to change rapidly as I improve on my illustration skills and build up my portfolio. Within a year, I’m a able to earn a 4 digit income every month just by selling my vector art. It’s true that alot of photographers and illustrators are earning an average of $1000 just by selling their photos at a part time basis. And if you are a professional in this line, I don’t see why you are not earning double or triple of this amount. I know a lot of top contributors are earning a over $10,000 income easily every month.

Selling at Microstock can work for you if you have the necessary skills for photography or illustrations. It may take months to see the results, but imagine a photo that can continue selling for years. That’s the power of passive income!
