Offer photos for sale online?
Can you earn a little money by providing photos on some online portals?
I thought about posting some nice photos from my city.
Is this a good idea? Can you earn a few euros with it? I'd be happy with 50 euros a month…
Which portals would be recommended for this?
for such things you need a larger number of highly professional (!) recordings at a very high level nowadays. Under a few thousand Aufnhamen you can basically forget it. You need to remember that you need to register for such a project a self-employed activity, with all obligations and also costs associated with it. That the reward you would have to earn more than just a few euros, because you also have expenses that have to be covered before something remains in the end
You can forget that. There’s hardly anyone interested in this, so you’d have to make quite different recordings that are commercially usable.
as I said, you’d have to sell a whole lot of pictures.
Photos will be taken to the spin price today. Users pay 50 cent or even less per image for this, and you get from the platforms between 20 and 50%.
Yes, you can sell or use the rights for images either by stock photography and there. the pictures are licensed, but this is rather only tacky and the market is very oversaturated.
Alternatively, you can also sell print on demand images/posters etc. online, but also here the market is very oversaturated and you have to make advertising accordingly.
There are portals where you can set stock photos that could then be bought theoretically. With normal city photos, however, it is rather unlikely that you really sell something. The photos should have a top quality. Not only technical but also content. To make such money, you have to find a matching niche where you don’t have so much competition.
If the photos are really good, that’s okay. Simply upload and wait at Fotocommunity.de until, for example, an advertising agency is interested in it.
Think about who the market should be. Who’s going to buy this?
You already have to post very outstanding pictures – a few snapshots from Buxtehude, which each primary school child can also cnip themselves, so you don’t make 50 cent in 5 years.
If it’s just a geknipse, in the worst case with cell phone, what I’m getting from, then no….
There are different portals.
You also have to pay attention to copyright in city photos.
If you’re not sure if you’re allowed to sell photos of certain buildings, you’d better check in the town hall.
Otherwise the panoramic freedom applies.
However, it is difficult to sell photos as there is so much free on the net.
Do you have business or will you register?
