Hi there. Just to clarify. We don’t have any plans for SS support. Sorry if there was any confusion on that point.

Update: Just got a prompt reply from Rahul. Apparently they are fixing some glitch and hopefully ShutterStock will be included again soon.

“At the time of writing it supports iStockphoto, Shutterstock and Dreamstime. Fotolia is next on the list and coming soon.”

However, when I create an account I find:

“Which sites do you support for Analytics?

iStockphoto
Dreamstime”

Shutterstock is apparently not supported as this review indicates. Data analysis which excludes the vast majority of my sales, is of little use.

Cory, we just added ‘This Year’ and ‘Last Year’ as options.

Hi Cory,

This is something we’ll be adding to the system. Ultimately, we will provide the ability to look at arbitrary time periods. One stop gap in the meantime is to click on a thumbnail and look at its all-time stats. I’m happy to go into this further if you’d like. Please feel free to email me at rahul at lookstat.

Thanks for trying out the service and for taking the time to post your thoughts.

@Rahul, I’ve been using your site for the last week and can say I’m very impressed!

Very interesting tool. When using it, I didn’t see options for statistics for a year or 6 months. I would think those would be the most useful because you can see what images are picking up steam.

Sure, feel free to contact me via twitter or facebook..

Our presence in micro is still relatively small, but we have a rather extensive collection in “traditional” where the data you have on there is not readily available other then sales reports, hence my reason for creating an in-house asset management and tracking system. It is rough and still evolving, but has already given me a breadth of information I did not have compiled before.

I think even having your information in an exportable format would help if someone has set up a proprietary system.
