Most of the larger stock agencies are pretty well established and well known. Hoever as more buyers learn to find and use affordable images form online microstock websites there are going to be more new niche agencies that focus on a particular subject or style of stock photography. With this in mind we have started the:

Niche Market Stock Agency Review List

If you know about or own an agency like this please let us know by posting here or filling out the contact us form. We have a short questionairre to fill out about your site.

When is it worth it to submit to these agencies. I saw the Jewish stock one on your listing, I have maybe 5 images that would qualify out of a portfolio of over a thousand. Is it worth the effort to signup?

I have hated waiting to earn $50 on a normal site. With only 5 images, the threshold for cashout could be forever.

I have a similar doubt about these agencies. On the other hand thats because "our" images are not normally what their looking for. Imagine that you were a photographer in an area with a high Jewish population that happened to already focus on this topic. This would then be a great way to extend your earnings. I think for the average person with a 1-5% match rate of approriate images, this would do no good. But for the right person it could be excellent because there is less competition on a niche agency and a more focused stock photo buyer (assuming they do a good job of advertising).
