Stockxpert.com claiming strong growth
One of the leading micropayment stock photography sites Stockxpert.com has announced that it now has more than 120,000 images to offer and is growing at the rate of 10,000 new images per week. Stockxpert is owned by the Hungarian based HAAP media Ltd which also owns the popular free stock photo site Stock.XCHNG with more than 40 million page views each month and 700,000+ registered users. In January 2006 Jupiter Media purchased a 49.7% equity investment in HAAP Media. Since the investment Jupiter has leveraged the relationship to promote its other stock photography brands while providing HAAP media with additional resources to refine and develop its products. In addition Stockxpert has also announced that it now accepts payments via PayPal. Alan Meckler, Chairman and CEO of Jupitermedia Corporation had this to say about Stockxperts recent growth. "In less than seven months we have added over 120,000 images and the number of submissions by photographers around the world is accelerating. The addition of the PayPal service makes Stockxpert.com that much more accessible for image buyers worldwide. We plan on adding additional user features in coming months. Our ownership interest in Stockxpert.com combined with our many subscription, royalty-free and traditional rights-managed image offerings, distinguishes Jupiterimages from our competition as the only company catering to all levels of image buyers worldwide".
"We believe that with our flexible and friendly service, easy user interface and attention to quality, Stockxpert.com is quickly becoming a significant player in the stock photo field," stated Peter Hamza, Founder of HAAP Media Ltd.
