Pexels | Is It A Good Idea for Stock Photographers?

#Stockphotography #shutterstock #pexels

Hey all,

Hope the week continues to go well for everyone.

I got on Pexels this past month to see hoe well it works, and it turns out to have a few good things going for it. I think I will continue to use it and see how it plays out, so here are my thoughts on it so far.

Have a great week,

Oliver

Thank you Oliver! Answered all my questions I needed to know.

Great video, do you still need to have all the descriptions and tags in pexels? and make sure people find your photos when they search in pexels doing SEO? or can we just upload the photos and pexel does the job? thanks

Hi..
Sir is it safe to use pixabay and pexels videos in shutterstock??

[roastthebean]

Hi. almost of time, publisher just credited pexels or unsplash. rarely i see they credited the photographer

You have achieved your goal. I found some very interesting photos of you in Pexels, and through your profile in Pexels I was directed and curious to take a look at your YouTube channel! 👍🙂 You have a new subscriber to your channel 🙂. By the way... one Question/suggestion I want to ask is Do you have any video tutorial from-start-to-end for instructing people of the technical things that someone must take into his consideration for taking one photo for the Stock photography websites? what sizes should the photos must be, What they usually accept and what they reject in a photo?... Thank you

Hi, I am also a contributor to Pexels. With 3.65 K downloads I have never made a penny but that's perfectly fine . With over 406 K views that means about 403 K did not care for my pics. It is a humbling experience . I am just an amateur who enjoys my hobby.

Can the pictures be used on a cover book

Thanks Olly, this was very useful to me. 👍🏾

I was kind of ambivalent about the benefits of Pexels for my stock port but now that SS has been giving 10 cent downloads, have been uploading a bit more to Pexels because there isn't a whole lot of difference between 10 cents and zero. I also like that I can get whackier with my edits on Pexels instead of boring noiseless edits for sites like SS.

If i download a photo from pexels, can i edit out the bottle of wine they have in it and add a different bottle to the photo and be able to sell it to to that company for an ad?

Incorrect. As much as I love your content, you can make money off pexels. You can do this via donations, and they have recently added new features that let you add stock photos that you have to pay for. By this, I mean you can publish pictures that other people would have to pay for to use. Pexels, in my opinion, is one of the best stock websites.

Sir, my question is how to get donation because in my account it shows this organisation is ineligible to get donation.

Then how can I get?

[pixelsgetme]

Hey Olly, thanks for making this vid. I am getting into photography, and I already use Pexels for my blog. I haven't donated yet but I do follow some artists on Twitter and Insta because I liked what I saw. So it does drive the traffic, you're spot on. Very insightful vid, thanks for your time!

How do I include my link on pexels, apparently it’s says my link is too long

[pie_st]

Paypal của em bị (Khoản quyên góp không được hỗ trợ ở quốc gia này) thì phải làm sao ạ

[jujefesko]

Adobe Stock and Shuttherstock don`t allow to upload photos with text on it!!?

[CReadiusPro]

I've had my work downloaded over 3000 times on Pexels and so far have received total donations of $0.

Can share 1 Pic from Pexel or have to share pull Profile for Friends to see the Pic I clicked ?
Thanks

How can my photos have a price and not be free?

[yolhikayesisakinleri]

I think it's a very good idea, Because to earn some money form istock or shutters. you need really high qualitty and really expencive equipment, to reach high standarts of selection. I want to publish my photos, and let the buyers to decide whether they gona pay or not. I believe that with pexel, deviantart and such free sites we will break the monopoly of shutterstock and others.
