With every day that passes, more and more people are carrying a camera at almost all times. I’m speaking specifically about the camera in your smartphone. Not only are we carrying that camera, the quality of the pictures it takes continues to improve with each passing year.

It is fairly common that mobile snapshots get posted to social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. If you take a great shot, how much money are you paid for posting that picture to the typical social media site? Zero, nothing, nada!!!

That’s where the developers of the Scoopshot app saw an opportunity. Each photo you upload through their service is offered for sale. Even pictures that do not directly sell can earn money if they are used. If you want details on how you earn, you’ll find those answers on the Scoopshot Web site.

While we’d all love to get rich just by uploading the pictures we take with our smartphones, keep your expectations fairly low. Think small at first such as trying to earn $10 a month. After you hit that first goal, then you can raise your goals in the future. While it make not make you rich, it can at least earn some money to help you buy your next smartphone.

The app itself runs on either iOS or Android devices and it is completely free. It took me maybe a minute or two to install it on my smartphone. You’ll also need to create an account. They do want to verify you are a real person, plus they want to give you credit and cash for your photos. Give the app a try, I have. If you start to earn some money with it, please share your story with me!
