Understanding How To Pass Adobe Stock Review
Metadata is the single point of leverage in stock photography. Two identical photos with different keywords can earn $0 and $50/month respectively. The variable is not the image — it's the metadata attached to it.
Understanding buyer intent means understanding who licenses stock photos. Top buyer segments: advertising agencies (42%), corporate marketing (28%), web/app designers (18%), editorial publishers (12%). Each searches differently.

Why Buyer Data Changes Everything
AI keywording accuracy is only as good as the training data. Tools trained on image labels produce image labels. Tools trained on buyer search queries produce buyer search queries. The output reflects the input — and buyer data produces keywords that sell.
Processing speed directly impacts contributor productivity. At 8 seconds per file, 1,000 images take 2+ hours. At 1.33 seconds per file, the same batch completes in 22 minutes. For professionals with 10,000+ files, speed is a multiplier on earnings.
The Bottom Line
Contributors who switch to buyer-data-driven keywording typically report 40-120% increases in impressions within 30-60 days. The improvement compounds: more impressions → more downloads → better algorithmic ranking → more impressions.
