The trends you point out are similar to my sales. Another possible explanation for the summer rise in earnings/dl is that buyers are buying images for Thanksgiving and Christmas ads in the summer, and they involve a lot of print. Perhaps a designer-by-day person can comment on this possibility. It would be interesting to see the rest of the year trend for earnings/dl. Thanks for the stats Rahul.

Fotolia) or your files (eg. Dreamstime) through the ranks. Yep – over time the subscription value on SS will go up to $0.38 and the RPD figure on other sites will go up as you go (eg.

I hadn't thought about subscriptions being a big driver of weekend sales but it's definitely a possibility. Thanks fo sharing your thoughts and I hope you're having a great trip! Rahul Hi Holgs:

My first thought was as well that on weekends mostly private buyers use stock for blogs, brochures and the like, while corporate buyers will be bigger images for posters and print during the week.
