R.I.P Lucky Oliver

So Lucky Oliver is closing down, another microstock site bites the dust ;-(

In case you are one of many, many people that are dreaming to open up their one microstock sites, do us all a favour and don’t commit the following mistakes:

Accept every image submitted just to get images, buyers are not attracted by crap.

Fight key word spamming/ bad key wording from the beginning, buyers want to find their dream image fast and not wade through tons of images that have nothing at all to do with their search.

Make your site slick and fast loading, time is money, especially on the internet.

Keep your site on line at all cost, a site that is down one time, is one time too often down, the buyer will never come back.

Keeping your artists happy is fine, but they are the happiest if they have sales. So make the buyer’s happiness your utmost priority and everything else follows.

Market your site, this is why we the contributors give you a share in our commissions, not for image hosting without results=sales. For this we can use flickr and the like.

Have a nice day, and in case you want still to start your own microstock site / project don’t hesitate to contact me I am available for consultancy, alpha and beta-testing for new microstock venues Have a nice day, SY

Oh, and btw bnpsworldwide closed also earlier this month, who is next?

Lucky Oliver lowers pay-out to $1 respective $25

LuckyOliver´s previous payout was $100 but from today, the company is rolling out a new, two tiered payout system. Standard payout will drop to just $25, the lowest no-fee payout in the industry. In addition, the company is launching its new $1 Valentine’s Day Score.

All members with LuckyOliver sales royalties of $1 or more can request a Valentine´s Day payout via PayPal or MoneyBookers until the end of the month.

“As long as you´ve entered your payment details on your account page, if you´ve got $1 or more in LuckyOliver sales, we’ll pay you on Valentine’s Day, this year and every year.” Discuss this development here. SY
