Why Create a Free Collection?
Pond5’s marketplace is built on a per-asset pricing model, so you may be wondering why we’ve made the choice to offer free media. Well, it all started with our Free Clip of the Week.
Since we’ve received so much great feedback about our weekly free clips, we’re offering even more free assets! We love that these free downloads keep you engaged and delighted, whether it’s your first time using Pond5 or you’re a long-time customer.
Additionally, our weekly free clip also offers increased exposure (and income!) to featured artists. After being selected for a free clip feature, artists see revenue rise by an average of 10% in the following month. The Free Collection aims to build on that success, offering participating artists broad exposure to millions of Pond5 customers around the world.
We designed this product to engage users in the breadth and depth of the Pond5 library and show visitors how much value they’ll unlock with our full collection. But, before they do, they can always sample our content with items from our Free Collection.
Simply put, we want you to be as excited about the content on Pond5 as we are!
