‘Photography’ Articles
Written by astoner on 03 March 2010
I’m currently averaging about $0.15/day from my articles on eHow. A friend on eHow, Rob Farmer, just started a blog eHow Internet Income and he’s making $1.00 – $1.50 on average per day and he has only a couple more articles than me.
We’re actually doing much the same things. Writing ehow article as well as doing Xomba. My goal is to build up to $100/month on all my different internet income streams. By this I mean my microstock photography, eHow, Google AdWords (via Xomba and other means), affiliate links, etc.
The microstock sites have pretty much been just sitting there. I’m really getting the urge to get shooting again and get them building. Would like to get them to payout on a more regular basis, but from everything I’m reading they do much better as long as you keep active.
I’m focusing on eHow right now. Short term goal of getting to the $10/month consistently for a couple months to get that payout. By then it should be spring and getting warmer out and I can do some outside shooting.

I didn’t do too much to advance the exposure of Driftless Ramblings. I did a little bit with adding to my microstock photography portfolios but not really consistently like I had hoped. My portfolios have been earning slowly but making payouts are still pretty elusive. I got two in 2009, one from Fotolia and one from Shutterstock. Like to get my portfolio built up to the point where I can be getting a payout about every month or so. All the different sites combined earn me about $10 per month, it’s just a matter of getting them to the payout threshhold.
My venture into writing for ehow.com has been going pretty good. I’ve been earning as much there as from my microstock sites. The ehow.com writing also gives me some backlinks to some various sites as I’m trying to get some affiliate marketing going. As a matter of fact I have just received my first payout from ehow.com, $12.27, not much but hopefully I can keep it growing.

It took a lot longer than I care to admit but I finally got my first payouts from Fotolia & Shutterstock. Both were at their minimums, but it is still an accomplishment. Earnings are still way down as I’m not contributing very aggressively. I have submitted a couple batches to Shutterstock just to have most if not all rejected. Need to put more focus into it than I have lately.

As you can see from my lack of posts on my earnings lately, I’ve not been focused on microstock right now. Still getting a couple downloads, actually approaching the first payout on a site or two. Still want to get back to doing some shooting and uploading, just haven’t had the time lately.
