Hey guys,

loved all your posts and ideas. always a fan. Recently came across the website http://www.isyndica.com , it looks like a great tool that would help me save a lot of time that i waste on uploading to different sites (and also saves me from getting bitched by my roommate, about the internet speed) But i was never aware of a sit like this and none of my friends can say anything about the site, so i come to u guys who have helped me a lot since i took photography as a hobby.

This website supports almost all major agencies 35 to be exact. and it will be nice if u guys could tell me more about how it could benefit me. AS it is a fairly new concept i guess u guys will be also interested in having a look at it. Expect to hear from u, or see a post soon. Thanking you in advance.

love u all
Alyssa

I have been looking at these microstock sites and never quite sure it anyone was making money from them, apart from the stock site itself. Great to see its possible.

It strikes me as a good example to the 80-20 principle: 80% may not sell but the 20% that does recovers for all the expenses and then some. And the returns become exponential as one does this over time. The only limitation to this would be the photographers passion to generate unique quality pictures. Congratulations Yuri!

Good to know it is possible to make microstock work.

This post however give little information I could use to make it work, especially as I am trying to concentrate on Landscape and fine art.

The message I take from this is is it is a numbers game. The more you upload the more you sell
