Another disappointing month .... Somehow it doesn't look like that I will recover fast from whatever happened with Shutterstock last October. December is normally my best month, but it didn't turn out like it this time. Also Zazzle was not as good this Christmas season as it was in the last few years. Overall December shrunk 2% compared to November and was down an astounding 21% compared to December 2013. My yearly income only increased by 5%. It was the best month ever for DepositPhotos, and Pixoto.

Looking back over the last few years and after that low October I was hoping to get a boost in November. But unfortunately it was far from that. November ended 7% from October and 17% lower then November 2013. The biggest downturn happened to Shutterstock. I am in the moment about 70% below normal. This started in the middle of October, but I have no idea why. Also Zazzle and Fine Art America are late this year with the increase of sales for the holiday gifts. It was the best month ever for DepositPhotos.

October was not a bad month this year, but it came with a big scare. In the second half October my Shutterstock revenue dropped down to about 30% on daily subscription sales and referral income. It would have been devastating if I would not had an increase on direct, on demand, and EL sales. So far I am not sure what the reason is. October was compared to September the same and had a drop of 5% compared to October 2013. It was the best month ever for iStockPhoto, BigStock, DepositPhotos, Picsastock, and StockPhoto.com.
