I was reading one of the member "success stories" in the PhotoPortfolios.Net side of the site, and they mentioned something about responding to a "Daily Image Request."

Is this a feature or benefit that we receive as subscribers? If so, where can I find these requests?

As a member, you'll receive a Daily Image Request through email when a photo buyer is interested in one of your photos, or if they have an inquiry about other photos you might have to suit them.

Monthly would be a more appropriate term than "daily", since they aren't too common. In the few months that I've been a member, I've received 2 or 3 very general inquiries.

Since I have been a member, I only have seen 2 general request (meaning it was addressed to the general members) which I could not comply with since I did not have any medical
images.

"Daily" means that all requests are sent once a day. If no requests come in, nothing is sent to the membership. We are working on a marketing plan that will hopefully increase the frequency of those requests in the near future.

I'm brand new here and this is an question that I'm naturally very curious about too. I'd really appreciate some feedback from long-standing members about whether and how NPN has helped them market their pictures. Do you feel it's been a good venue for getting your images out there and generating sales?

Is there any information about the kinds of buyers who visit this site and what kind of promotion NPN does to get our images in front of them? I saw only a brief mention of these issues in the information I read before joining.
