Fine Art America will not make you a rich man, but in my opinion the ROI is favorable. Just upload and sell. Set your price to be competitive, and they then do all the hard work of processing the product, fulfillment and shipping. Multiple product lines will surprise you at what sells.

I use Fine Art America, after you upload they do everything and send a check, but there is a sea of millions of photos that your work is swimming in, sold a couple, haven't lost money yet...
If I really wanted to work at selling photos I'd probably try to sell prints at craft shows but I'm too old for that now.

I suggest you sell through your local art shows and galleries. In order to keep your costs down you should print for yourself on a Professional printer the size determined by what you intend to sell .I am mainly a landscape photographer so I print usually 24 x 36 and larger . But birds a other wildlife always sell faster . And you want to have a range of sizes from 12 x 16 , 18 x 24 , 24 x 32 , 24 x 36 , the 12 x 16 sell quite readily to tourists that want something to put in carry on luggage. With most sales being Canvas Gallery wraps . I do not have that many sales of my own work but print daily for others . If one of my photography friends sells something it is the same as if I sold something , that is my point I make more printing for others . I was only able to do this by obtaining a broken large format printer a IPF8300 a 44 inch wide printer only needing a new head 1 of 2 . $500.00 dollars I was up and running . I now have a new Canon PRO 4000 also . My most successful seller keeps me printing every week . He has a Blog He sells from And posts new photos on Facebook a lot is sold there and his blog . The rest at Two galleries one locally and one in Cedar Key here in Florida . He has just started doing matted only paper prints along with his gallery wrapped canvases .I sell 12 x 16 Gallery wraps for $35.00 he doubles that and adds gallery commissions .

I have my work on FineArtAmerica but have had better sales via RedBubble.com. They have a similar setup to FAA but are free to sellers.

Soo, I have been in photography for 55 years now - I am currently on FAA. I will not go into marketing per se - but will talk about what makes marketing and sales EASIER. I am 74, not rich nor do I pursue "richness" .........

1. Having the BEST/LATEST gear and knowing how to use it and being at the right place at the right time.......this requires $$$$, good social connections, and a very flexible time schedule and a willingness to be away from "home".

2.Having a niche - by this I mean having unique opportunities. Unique opportunities usually require travel and considerable physical activities. Travel requires $$$$ and physical activities require youth and/or good physical health.

If you have these two attributes and even a basic marketing then you have a good chance of SELLING - but not necessarily turning a profit ! .....

In short, there is really not much money in selling images these days - but there is still some money in blogging and TEACHING others and doing workshops ect.

NOT easy. I found a market and im exploiting it to the best of my ability. what is it??? NOPE not telling you....
I can make $400 to $1000 on a weekend with my work. I can do that almost every weekend if I want.
I tried using the services. I made a few bucks and that was it. Very hard
the one thing I did find that sold much better than anything else was city pictures from a distance.
Philadelphia from across the river in NJ, NY from across the water in NJ .... and if you update them every year and mark as such you'll make a lot more.
I did weddings for a few years . That will drive you to drink.....Brides be crazy ......
