Photo Web site business model

What is a public package, what is the public benefit

Public package (Crowdsourcing) concept from the "Connection" magazine reporter Jeff Howe, referring to the use of the Internet will be to work out the distribution and found that creative or technical issues. This is not to say that nothing new is the concept of traditional outsourcing, package the public's strengths is that the scope of outsourcing more and more access to valuable content, while at the same time lower costs.

The deduction by the package open to the public, will have a "public benefit", that is, through the public packet with more people sharing the proceeds. Wei-off mode is a typical pattern of public benefit, a task extensive collection solutions are the best profit, or more than profit.

At present, many of the industry, the public application package and the concept of public benefit, will bring about many new business model, I am here to look at pictures Web site.

The article iStockphoto picture of the development model

Look at an example ─ iStockphoto ─ This is a picture I often find material of a Web site, there's a lot of picture material, high quality, the only bad thing is there is a watermark. However, I am nothing, because they rely on the profits.

iStockphoto on the picture are independent photographers or photography enthusiasts and upload the shooting, according to the size of the price of different codes (a few dollars 1,3,5,10,15,20 file), anyone can buy into iStockphoto Picture, but here are pictures of the RF work, you can purchase a limited number of limited-purpose use. Photo sales by the iStockphoto Web site and the author is divided into picture.

Do not look at a picture of your case, the importance of copyright abroad, in relation to the quality of the picture, this price is very attractive, at least the Getty picture more attractive (Getty images are very expensive, often to see translated The statement said that plans a 24-hour series of friends should be familiar with many of those images from the Getty). Small profits but quick turnover of the reason we understand, but more importantly, those who can not enter the picture of the market and amateur photographers are unknown independent open the door of a profit.

iStockphoto model is simple: provide a platform for sellers and is divided into familiar ─ what? is eBay, Taobao, although into the abyss, but from the model, the defects do not have strong, and rumors to the end of the free Taobao It is estimated as Eventually, as the main mode.

iStockphoto model of development of a number of advantages

A large quantity of goods, the buyer will be great choice.

Source of a wide range of goods, the average price low.

Web site need only to pay operating costs, without the need for the goods from the hands of the seller to buy down, a lot of pressure on the small.

iStockphoto model of development issues

Large picture, the uneven quality means that it will be difficult to select and find a suitable picture of the need to spend a lot of time (with Taobao in the shopping needs of a large number of comparison and selection is a reason).

Picture of the illegal use of preventive measures is loosely (picture watermark can be removed, as long as you use Photoshop and have enough patience, I did so on).

Earnings instability, the sales picture depends entirely on the buyer's needs.

Fortunately, in addition to earnings instability, the other two problems can be solved. The contents of the picture, size, color, and other attributes of the precise classification and indexing, so that buyers can more easily find themselves in need of pictures, text similar to the semantic analysis. Photo by reducing the size and reduce the quality of the picture display to prevent illegal use.

iStockphoto development model variants

In addition, this model can also join the many variations, such as:

Free with advertising through the release of the earnings picture to come.

Monthly, membership, such as the sale of packaged image to promote sales.

Sellers joined the initiative of the pricing model to attract more high-quality image sources.

I have not carefully analyzed the domestic market, I do not know whether this model also work at home, but what is certain is that more and more attention to intellectual property, the sales picture will be gradually enlarged .

The economic crisis, the station can deal with a number of ways

By the time the loan crisis caused by the global financial crisis, is the speed of hurricane-like sweeping the globe, China is no exception. As one of the more than 100 million head, how do we survive, and even counter-current progress, I think there may be some way to deal with:

First of all, "grain, the relief win."

This remark by the Ming emperor Zhu beggars out of the eight weight, then re-eight Chinese military power, money, food, but large natural than the "Company", like small and medium-sized station, they must first consolidate their own Web site, stability Flow, adhere to the patient. Into a class on Web site to do a good job of honest, so steady, grow in size and strength, and Internet users toward its own goal of a follow-up, Chaosanmusi not to eat the bowl like the pot, as individuals, can not do Not to do, from the content and depth as far as possible to start doing fine, meticulous, so there is a high degree.

The second point is going its own way, so that other people have to go to father

Many station, it is easy to be on the impact of other people, see the station master to make money on the other jealous, along with other people's road, but do not know to make money is to regulators often in the best position to uphold. To know that the success of those who are able to hold on until the end, this station can learn more than 3 Xu, simple, simple, and a reinforcement of more than 3 Xu.

As head of the money that lose money as their own, the way to make money because very few people know that the loss of money but it is clearly the balance in the market or the stability of the site has not yet there are still enormous potential for development time , To be installed grandson, a low-key way of doing things can be each other's palsy, although the industry do not attract much attention, but you can have the last laugh. Master secret Cangbu Zhu was a lot of stamina or not, to abandon the original results of a profit-making channels, and at the school, at the school, as the results of monkeys picking bananas, get nothing at all.

The third point, and their ability to "winter" to find "Sunshine."

To know that in the spring, people are enjoying the sunshine is equal, but in the winter, how to find the sun, is the ability to master the test of time. Perhaps following the example of some master to be able to think and to help:

The United States in 1929 during the Great Depression, an unemployed young man invented a strong game, swept the entire United States, this is the contemporary game of Monopoly originator of God. 90 at the end of the Asian financial crisis, the South Korean government found that the ranks of the unemployed are at home playing StarCraft, so vigorously support the development of online games, South Korea now have an annual production value of multi-billion dollar gaming industry.

It can be said that the worldwide economic crisis is often an opportunity to bring to the game industry, because of reduced income due to reduced such as: Paoba, Kara OK, tourism and other relatively expensive cost of entertainment, on the contrary choose to play games at home this price Cheap entertainment. Among them, South Korea and Japan, the game industry to keep pace with the rapid development of a century of economic development is directly related to obstruction.

The global economic crisis How long will the so-called economists still pinch plane, who also are not allowed to count, however, is the rapid development of China's online games industry is affected by the economic crisis the industry's smallest, two examples to prove: 1, in a recent online games there, a player to create an additional 140 non-physical level of arms, asking price 100,000 yuan and ultimately to 50,000 transactions; 2, the National Tax Administration of China stipulates that the sale of virtual currency to levy personal income tax , A fixed tax rate of 20%, to choose at this time of virtual currency income tax, National Tax Administration of the virtual world of the market's confidence can be seen.

But also relative to the web master of the game, no upfront investment, it's easy to be able to have their own games channel, is the master site combines online games and an effective way.
