I imagine you were not aware you could take photos and sell them online as stock photos. Well, have a look at websites on the Internet, everyone uses pictures & images. Images help to convey a message and make a block of text more interesting. The owners of these sites don't create these images themselves, that would be too time consuming, they just want to spend time running their business. They go to stock photo sites where they can find your photos. You make money, by submitting (for free) your photos to Stock Photography websites. "What is stock photography?" I here you say. Well, stock photography is a library of photographs or images held by companies such as Fotolia or Istockphotos. These images are used by thousands of people every day, as it is cheaper than using a professional photographer and
therefore saves people thousands of pounds. Stock Photography is a BOOMING business, because of the simple laws of economics - SUPPLY AND DEMAND. Put simply, there is a HUGE demand for stock photos, all you have to do, is supply. STOCK PHOTOGRAPHY websites are ALWAYS looking for new, fresh and creative photos. They have millions of images provided by people like you. The great thing about these sites is that you can sell numerous copies of the same photo. Each time someone buys your photo, you get a commission. The more pictures you have the more money you make. Go to sites such as Istockphotos & Fotolia to see the wide variety of pictures they have. You'll be surprised to see what you find. There are literally thousands of pictures of everything and anything. You may be wondering "how will people find my picture?". Well, This is done in the same way people find things using Google. They just type in a few related keywords for what they want and then search the results. It is the same with stock photos. When you upload an image, you will be given the opportunity to attach keywords that describe your picture or words you think people might use to find an image like yours. So if your picture is a car, when someone types the word car on these sites, all the pictures of cars will appear. Therefore if your picture is of a blue car, you would simple use the words 'blue car' to describe your picture. As you can see, it's really simple, so don't waste another minute start making money with your digital camera today.
