Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to build a 10,000-asset portfolio?
Production speed varies dramatically by asset type and niche. Photo portfolios of 10,000 assets typically take six to thirty-six months. HD video clips portfolios take longer.
Does portfolio size scale linearly with earnings?
Approximately yes within a single platform and niche. Doubling a 10,000-asset portfolio to twice the size typically doubles earnings, assuming consistent quality and keywording.
What is the best platform for a 10,000-asset portfolio?
Best-platform depends on niche more than on portfolio size. The calculator's per-platform breakdown shows which marketplace pays most for a 10,000-asset portfolio in your specific scenario.
Should I focus on a niche or build a generalist portfolio of this size?
At 10,000 assets, niche specialization typically outperforms generalist content by a factor of two to three on per-asset revenue. Generalist portfolios need to be larger to match niche earnings.
Can I earn full-time income from 10,000 HD video clips?
Full-time income from a 10,000-asset portfolio is possible only in high-demand niches with multi-platform distribution. The high scenario in the calculator above shows what is achievable.
