Would it appeal to you to know you can submit your digital photos online and get paid for it? In that case read on. Submitting your photo to stock photo sites does not require that you be a professional photographer nor do you require any professional equipment, in fact you already have what it takes as long as you have a digital camera and you are reading this article (meaning you have access to internet connection).
There are many stock photo sites that you can sign up with and submit your digital photos to them on certain pre-agreed terms of payment. You can find photo stock sites by doing an internet search yourself or by using websites that have gathered the different stock photo sites and make it accessible to you on their site, but note that the site might run a membership that could require you to pay a certain fee.
The stock photo sites are often used by businesses and individuals who find it cheaper to browse through the stock photo sites for what they want, than actually hiring a professional photographer which could end up costing more. So the more digital photos you submit the more money you stand.
It is that simple to make money from submitting your photo to stock photo sites, but there are a few tips you can apply to see that your photos are not refused and that they receive high download rate;
1. Try to capture an object or landscape from more than one point of view, thereby giving the person looking at downloading that scene or object more options.
2. Ensure that you do not submit photos with trademark or brands showing on them.
3. Do not submit that you have no right to as that is one of the fastest routes to end up in court. 4. Read the terms or service of each site as they might have slight differences which you need to be aware of.
5. Submit to many different stock photo sites (it is like a numbers game, the more photos you have submitted with different sites the more download you get)
6. For every site find out what category of photos are more popular and you can work around that.
Another strategy that I use is to capture a particular landscape in different seasons and weather. Such photos do very well from my own experience, but there are so many things you can take pictures of and see how well it does with Stock Photo Sites
