 So if you already have an Adobe Stock account, you've uploaded photos and are already getting sales, this video probably isn't for you. But I do have another video that you might be interested that I'll put a link into up here. Now if you're new to Adobe Stock or you haven't even signed up yet, this video is for you. You're in the right place. Hi, I'm James Wheeler. I've been uploading to Adobe Stock for over five years. So if you don't have an Adobe ID yet, then that's going to be your first step. If you are already a subscriber to the Creative Cloud, you can use the same Adobe ID for Creative Stock. But if you don't have an, I'll put a link down below. Now, once you have an Adobe ID, you're going to need to sign up to be a contributor. You can do that by clicking the sell button in the top right hand bar, and then just accepting the terms and conditions. After you have your contributor account set up, you can start uploading photos. Just click the upload button in the top navigation bar. Now if you're setting up your Fortaloo account, this is also where you go in and get your credentials to link your Adobe Stock account to your Fortaloo account. For those of you who don't know what Fortaloo is, it's an online website that we've created that allows you to upload your photos to multiple stock sites at once. And if you're interested in that, there's a link down in the comments where you can go and sign up for a free account. Now you don't need Fortaloo to upload photos to Adobe Stock. You can actually just go and drag and drop them into the browser or use the browse button to go and choose the photos you want to upload. Now whether you upload the photo manually or you do it with Fortaloo, the next step is the same. You need to add in the metadata and then submit it to Adobe Stock for review. The first thing you need to enter into the file type. So you can choose from a photo or illustrations. This will typically default to the correct one. Next is category. Now Adobe's image recognition software is going to look at the photo and kind of make a best guess at the category. And it's pretty good. But if it chooses wrong, you can update it here. Now you can also enter keywords of different languages. But if you're watching this video, I'm guessing you're going to choose English. Next is model releases. So you need to have a model release for every person in the photo. Now other sites like Shutterstock will have an editorial section of the website. So if you don't have releases, you can still submit them to the editorial section. But Adobe doesn't have that. So you really need to have a model release for every person in the photo. Otherwise, you're out of luck on Adobe Stock. Now if you haven't got a model release template yet, you can download it from here. But Adobe Stock will also accept model releases from other agencies as well as apps. Here's a list of all the agencies and apps that Adobe kind of guarantees that they'll accept the model releases from. Now this next section is really important because this is how buyers are going to find your photos. The first is the photo titles. You can enter up to 200 characters for the photo title. What you're going to want to do is just write a description of the photo that includes a lot of keywords. So for example, for this photo here, I would probably put something like woman walking down a beach during a golden sunset in Maui, Hawaii. So if somebody searches for, you know, a beach in Maui, Hawaii, they might get this photo. But also if somebody was searching for golden sunset on a beach, they also may find this photo. So next is the keywords. Now if you enter the keywords in your photo editing software, like LightWrite Room, they will already be here populated for you because Adobe will import them and read them from the metadata. One thing to note that Adobe, unlike a lot of the other stock sites, take into consideration the order of the keywords. So you really want to put your most relevant keywords at the top and the least relevant ones below. Now Adobe will allow you to do up to 50 keywords, but you only really need to have five in there to be able to submit it for review. Now I typically recommend having 20 to 30 keywords per stock photo. I find that's a pretty good number. Now there's two ways to enter in keywords. First is you can enter them line by line or you can hit this little toggle and enter them in by a comma separated list. I prefer to do the comma separated list. I find it a bit faster. So now that you've got all your metadata entered, you can go ahead and submit your photo. Adobe will go ahead and review it and let you know whether it fits their criteria. Once they've reviewed the photo, they'll send you an email to let you know whether it was accepted or rejected. This normally takes a couple of days. Now I've made around $1,900 selling my photos on Adobe stock so far. And if you're interested in which of my best selling photos, take a look at this video right here.
