iStockphoto Upload Trends In 2012

Posted on 1/2/2013 by Jim Pickerell | Printable Version | Comments (0)

This story is a follow on to the previous story about iStock's declining downloads over the past two years.

At the end of 2012 the 423 contributors discussed in the previous story had a combined total of 1,601,662 images on the iStock site. Of this number 216,191 images (about 13%) were added during 2012. It is interesting how this uploading breaks down. The top 20 uploaded 74,399 images (34% of the total). Their upload totals and the number of images they currently have in the collection are listed below.

Clearly, massive uploading seems to have worked for most of these individuals. Their downloads went up significantly. However we do not have sufficient information to determine if the increase in downloads was enough to offset the costs of production of the new images.

At the other end of the spectrum, a significant percentage of the 423 contributors that were very active and successful in the past seem to have pulled back and stopped producing. Fully 25% of the 423 contributors (106) uploaded fewer than 20 new images in 2012. Forty-two added no new images and 20 actually pulled images and reduced the size of their iStock collections.

The chart below shows the size of each individual's collection and how much it grew in 2012. It also shows the total images individuals had in the collection at the end of 2012 and the number of images added during the year.
