There are tons and tons of content being uploaded online every day, and a lot of it features at least one image. Everything from blog posts to homepage backgrounds may feature a quality image, so there is plenty of work to be had as far as stock photos go.
Most stock photo sites offer about 50-60% of each sale to the artist, and if an image proves popular, it can earn you a nice sum. Of course, you need to invest in good equipment to set up a small studio and need to have some talent and experience, so it is not something that everyone can just pick up as an additional source of income.
It may also be a while before you see some real profit, and you will have to put in the work. However, if you have already dabbled in amateur photography as a hobby, have some decent equipment and enjoy snapping photos, then you can take the extra step and make some money from it.
