Photographers of all sorts used to have a very tough time getting their work seen. Only a handful of photographers enjoyed having the world see their work on a regular basis.
The Internet did indeed change all of that. Photographers can now use the Internet to get their work in front of the public and even get their work sold.
IStockphoto has been one of the more popular websites on the Internet for years. Part of the reason that millions of people visit the site each and every year, is due to the fact that IStockphoto has well over a million photographers from photographers all over the world. In fact, IStockphoto has even branched out into the world of video clips.
Internet marketers and Internet entrepreneurs may find IStockphoto to be of interest due to the fact that it is an easy and fast way to get photos for websites and other purposes. The real question is whether or not it is just as useful as it once was.
In 2006, Getty Images purchased IStockphoto. Ever since this happened, the charges for using photos has consistently went up and up. Today, prices have risen quite considerably from where they were in 2006. Those looking for a good deal might want to look elsewhere as a result.
While it is true that IStockphoto prices have continued to rise, it is also undeniable that they have a simply fantastic array of photos to choose from. Yet, there is also no denying that for entrepreneurs on the budget there are most certainly cheaper options.
When you opt to use photos from an independent photographer posting their work online, you are effectively supporting a visual artist. The odds are that you will even be able to save some money in the process.
In the end, IStockphoto might not be for everyone, as many will find that their prices have risen too much in recent years. However for those in need of one or two photos, this vast site might still be a good pick.
Finding what works for you isn't always easy. I was lucky in that I found what worked for me in the form of yoga and meditation. In fact, I will tell anyone who asks that I believe deeply in both of these ancient practices as a way of calming one's mind and reaching the best decisions.
I discovered how important maintaining one's center was in 2007, when I lost both of my successful real estate businesses. The real estate market collapse sent me off in a new path. Through carefully analyzing my situation, I was able to chart a new course. These days I am once again financially secure, and I love helping people learn to their own paths as well.
