Leap forward

Now is the time for another leap forward at Pixmac. It might be controversial, but believe us, this is the future of microstock. Let’s get things straight. We’re all here to build a profitable business or at the very least a profitable hobby.

Recently our Pixmac strategic planning executive team focused on extensive research and came up with an idea. If we really want to satisfy contributors and content suppliers we need to have the best tools to do this. So that is what we are doing…creating these tools.

Why iSyndica?

The Pixmac microstock agency is proud to announce that we now offer 7 million stock photos for our customers. Only a few competitors can say the same. Our collection consists of 3 sources- two are creative and one editorial called “Celebrity”. Pixmac is the fastest way to get a stock photo or illustration for your design for a price that might surprise you.
When the pink company launched its marketplace in September 2008 it might have seemed like just another microstock company that is trying to make it. But look how much we have grown in a year! Pixmac has partners in 9 major markets and its sales are growing faster than expected.
Our company is  growing faster than other competitors in the microstock market according to respected site Alexa.com and  the amount of pictures grows with it. Not only that, Pixmac invented the “One Stop Shopping” way to get inexpensive quality photos in a matter of seconds without needing registar. Lee Torrens, a well known microstock blogger, says: “I LOVE your one-stop-shopping idea! It has always been a missing element of microstock agencies…” Yes, Pixmac is focused our speed and user friendliness.
Pixmac has a lot to offer and more in the oven to offer our customers. For example, Pixmac is working with a University on a project that will change your searching abilities that will make searching quicker and easier. We are also adding another few million photos to the database soon and working on some nice stock photo searching tweaks.
This week we´re launching a new updated website together with features such as Moneybookers payment method which added with payments by PayPal and/or  Credit Card. Also we have included a popular feature that sorts search results by downloads or date.
Vitezslav Valka (CEO) comments: “I’m always thrilled to see our customers happy with the user interface. Everybody deserves an easy tool that just works. I’m watching everything that happens in the company and believe me, it’s better than Red Bull and Duracell together!”
