COMPARISON TABLE
Warren | No Comments »Below is a helpful guide for those starting out in the microstock industry. I have compiled a comparison table showing commission structure, subscription sales commissions and standard image price at each microstock agency. This is just a guide, I suggest that you read my full reviews before you decide on where to register. Whilst some agencies have a very attractive commission structure, they may have low sale numbers when compared with other agencies.
