Enhanced license sales on shutterstock.com part II

Posted in General by Ingus on the October 28th, 2007

In the previous post in this series I shared my experience about the first 3 of my enhanced license sales on shutterstock.com. Now it’s time to share some more experience. This month I got one more enhanced license sale, which was from the same set as 2 of the previous images sold with this license. Here it is:

That’s again a shot from my trip to Thailand at the beginning of this year. The image was taken in the same national park as the waterfall shot which you can find in the previous post about enhanced license sales. Actually this shot was not intended to be a bestseller. We were walking through the park and on one of the bridges I just stopped and took this image. After coming home I did some adjustments in Photoshop and uploaded it to shutterstock. I never thought it would sell well and never thought it could get me an enhanced license sale.

If we are talking about the statistics on regular sales vs enhanced license sales, I’m at just about the same level as I was while writing the previous post - 0.43% of all sales are enhanced license sales for me.
