Speak Up! Best Stock Photo Websites?
I have lots of old pictures that I don't do anything with. I'm looking to put them up onto stock websites, to try and get at least some use for them. Do you have any suggestions for specific ones? Let me know in the comments, please!

Well I've done a little research on this matter and I came to the conclusion that most of the stock websites are literally stealing the creators. There are a few though, that pay back 50% of the earnings which sounds pretty fair to me! I think stocksy is the best one of this kind.
I have also found glstock but I don't think they have many clients to work with.
I hope I helped, good luck with your pursuit! Your photography is super and I am sure you'll do well!
Thanks for the response! I once applied to them, and was rejected because the subject material wasn't what they needed (I submitted landscapes). I may try again and focus on a different topic, like portraits or something.
I agree that a lot of sites basically steal from you, but if I get at least something for my old photos that aren't doing anything for me, that's something right? I've started using Alamy, but I'll check out glstock. Thank you!
Yes, I was rejected too but I plan to try again, although I am not even a professional photographer :)
I am trying to figure out for years what to do with my old photos but till now sharing them to steemit is the best use I could find! When I started to istock about 6 years ago the revenue was quite good but after the takeover from Getty it turned into pennies. Anyway good luck!
I've heard a lot of negative things about stock photography recently, and how you used to be able to make a lot more money before micro-stock and the overall saturation of the market. But oh well, something is better than nothing! As long as it's worth my time uploading them, since it definitely does take time to upload and tag them. Thank you!!
