How to Find Ideas to Upload to the Mikrostock Site
Ideas always come up at any time, but unfortunately rarely executed.
Yep, that’s what happens to almost everyone. Including me.
As a blogger who also plays on shutterstock, content is a must-have. Without it we are nothing in cyberspace.
The original intention was to make money through the internet, so something had to be done. Can’t just sit back and get money so easily.
This time I want to give tips on how to get ideas to be used as shutter stock portfolio material.
For those of you who are beginners, maybe this article can be useful.
Before that, try asking yourself. Currently, what skills are mastered in the field of design?
- Photo
- Videos
- Vector
- Illustration
- Fonts
- Love making templates for presentations
- Like to see beautiful icons on the cellphone screen
- Hobby is taking photos of food on the dining table before eating
- Hobby taking pictures on car free day
- Love to travel
- and so forth
All of this can be converted into money. If you have one of the above, try playing on the mikrostock site.
So how do you get the idea?
There are 6 categories of photos that can be managed and sold on Shutterstock to this day.
1. People
2. Culture
3. Culinary
4. Landscapes
5. Animals
6. Plants
Why is this category the most popular?
I think this is because of the need for news. Not only for online media, but also for print needs. Not a few photos of microstock players are sold and printed to media such as magazines.
You can fall into any category. Can be any or all. Just upload it, who knows if someone bought it.
And our mindset is not to think this photo is bad first. Who knows someone will buy it. If it sells, it means that our photos are not bad, because someone bought them.
Further I do the below.
- Join forums, such as facebook groups, or telegram. Look at the work of people who sell, many people used to share their income there.
- Go to twitter and see what’s trending. This is great for beginners. There is a shutter stock player whose work sells a lot just by following what’s trending on twitter. Don’t just do it too. See hashtags or things that we think will be trending for a long time.
- Open shutter stock and see what’s hot. On the front page of shutter stock, try entering the popular category. On some pages you can see the keywords that are currently trending. Make the appropriate work and then find your market there.
- Find out what days or events will take place, or are in progress. This is recommended by many microstock players, even Shutter Stock itself suggests this. For example, near Eid al-Fitr, making works with the theme of Eid, Islam, and others. If it’s good, it will work.
- In shutter stock, try to pay attention to the types of people’s work, whether it’s a vector or a photo, or something else. Try to make your version unique. Do not do things that are not in accordance with the rules of the shutter stock.
- More references for better quality of work. Self-introspection, try to see what tools you currently have, a DSLR camera, mirrorless, or even a cellphone camera, you can create works to be uploaded on shutter stock. Even if you only have a laptop and don’t have photography talent, try making something like vectors such as icons, templates, backgrounds, illustrations, and so on.
- If you used to have a hobby of taking pictures, try to see the contents of the hard drive. Who knows there are photos or videos that can be sold. Just upload.
The final word
These are tips for getting ideas to upload to the microstock site.
A microstock player should continue to work and periodically upload photos/works there.
Mikrostock as an alternative means of getting money from the internet quickly and easily, of course with great effort.
If you’ve been playing on shutter stock for a long time, try commenting on what you’ve made. As for my cellphone camera, a lot of it has been approved there. Spirit. 🙂
