Have you seen the ads for Photojobz popping around online? In this Photojobz review you’re going to see whether they are a reputable resource for selling your photos online or not.
Can you upload your everyday photos to Photojobz and earn commissions? How much does Photojobz cost and what do you get for your monthly membership dues? Is Photojobz a great way to sell your photography online or a total waste of time?
Unfortunately for me, what I thought I was going to get and what I actually got were two completely different things.
Photojobz Review – Great Way to Sell Photos Online or Waste of Time?
Watch my video below and get a sneak peek of what you get when you buy membership into Photojobz. Is this a great way to sell your photos online or a complete waste of time?
What is Photojobz and How Does it Work?
I first heard about Photojobz after publishing this article on how to sell your photos online. Soon after publishing, I started getting lots of spam bot comments with links to the Photojobz website.
It is a HUGE red flag when a business uses spam bots to advertise with unsolicited comments and links back to their website.
Since publishing reviews on online opportunities is what I do, I decided to take a look at the website for myself. At first glance it presented itself much like any other stock photography website.
What I found out is that Photojobz isn’t a stock photography website at all. A ClickBank product, it is simply a collection of eBooks and very basic videos with common sense info on how to get started selling your photos online.
There wasn’t anything special about this info, and most was common sense. The most surprising part is that they charge monthly membership dues for information you could easily find for yourself online.
How Much Does Photojobz Cost?
– $1 for the first 5 days
– $27/month thereafter
The one good thing I found about this service is, since it is a ClickBank product, it has a 60 day money back guarantee.
Photojobz Membership Area
Upon arriving in the membership area, you’re greeted by a tab filled page linking to resources like videos, eBooks, and links. The tabs include:
- Sell Your Photos Video Training
- Sell Your Photos Guides
- Upload Your Photos
- Digital Camera Guides
- Digital Photography Mastery
- Ultimate Photoshop Training Videos
- Photoshop and Photography Guides
- Photo Editing Tools
- Premium Photography Jobs
- Stock Photos Agencies
The screenshot above shows 2 of the 7 videos that make up the “Photo Video Training”. These are very short videos, averaging just over a minute in length.
Some of the “photo tips” included in the video training:
- “Only high quality photos will be accepted into stock photography sites.”
- “If you’re going to take high quality photos, you’ll need to buy high quality gear.”
There is little to nothing presented in these videos that I didn’t already know, and I’m no expert on photography.
Still, I assumed that all these eBooks and video tutorials were simply being used to lay a well rounded foundation for this site. What does it matter if it’s common sense type stuff? If the photos I upload to the Photojobz audience get seen and sold, what do I care, right?
However, when I got to the “Upload Your Photos” tab, reality set in.
The “Upload Your Photos” tab just opens up some links to the most common stock photography websites that you could EASILY find for yourself online, such as:
- Shutterstock
- Adobe Stock
- Alamy
- Crestock
- 500px
- Fotolia
- Dreamstime
- BigStockPhoto
- 123RF
- CanStockPhoto
- PhotoStockPlus
This begs the question, “What exactly am I being charged $27/month for?” It’s not like your monthly dues to Photojobz give you unlimited access to these other stock photo sites for free. You’d still have to pay there too. It’s really bizarre to try to wrap your mind around.
And if that wasn’t bizarre enough, there is a Premium Photography Jobs tab. This gives you access to completely random job listings, such as:
Maybe there’s someone out there sitting in Norman, Oklahoma who’s reading this right now screaming, “JACKPOT!!!” But it seems pretty random to me and completely bizarre. Would you pay $27/month for this?
Something else that I found just a little suspicious after doing my research is that there are seemingly no reviews that go into detail about what Photojobz is. The ones I saw reviewed it as “Great”, with one reviewer telling of his continued commissions he’s receiving for a hamburger photo thanks to Photojobz.
Seems a little fishy to me, but that’s just my opinion.
Photojobz Pros and Cons
Final Thoughts
Photojobz is an online website that give some very basic resources for people looking to sell their photos online. They charge a monthly membership, however the information they provide through eBooks and video tutorials is freely available online.
Unlike stock photography sites that charge a monthly premium in exchange for getting your photography viewed by thousands, Photojobs only provides links to these stock photography sites and the value of what you receive for a monthly membership is questionable.

Almost jumped on board. Appreciate you running defense for all of us Eric. 🙏
Do you recommend any legit affiliate marketing sites/training or online biz opportunities ?Took a beating on last one. Thanks again Eric
I’m glad this helped you out. You can see the link at the end of the article to the training I owe all my success to. Get started free to see if it’s for you. Hope to see you on the inside!
This is REALLY helpful, as is your article that gives LEGIT info on selling photos. I am glad that looking for reviews of this scam company (Photojobz) led me to your site. It’s a great idea (i.e. what YOU are doing), especially these days when so many people need to be able to work from home. Thanks for doing this. I think there are a lot of businesses out there now that, rather than actually wanting to provide help and service to others, are mainly working up schemes to get people to pay monthly subscriptions while providing NOTHING for such payments! Photojobz is such a scheme. I believe they hope the subscribers will forget and just keep paying and paying indefinitely. It’s a great idea to use photos to lure unsuspecting “victims” in – everyone has a phone and shoots a lot now, right? Brilliant, if you don’t have a conscience. You obviously have a conscience, and a kind, caring heart. Thanks again!

I’m really happy this was helpful for you! Thank you for all the kind words and thanks for the comment!
Thanks a lot! I almost fell. Very hepful review.
Very happy you enjoyed this! Thanks for the comment!
That’s awful. It is awful to see sites like this that exist to scam people out of money. Not only does it hurt the poor slob that wasted money on a service that he could get for free, it casts a shade on legitimate online opportunities. By now folks should realize that if the opportunity sounds too good to be true them it’s most likely not true. Buyer beware… complete your due diligence before spending money.
Thanks for the honest review

Technically, it’s not a scam since you’re getting a product for your money, but I totally get what you’re saying. This info is freely available. As someone else commented earlier, if this was a one time fee for this information, and you felt it was worth it since all the info had been compiled for you, then that’s fair enough. But a monthly charge for this? Kind of bizarre. Thanks for the comment!
For me photojobz doesn’t really worth one to paying such an amount for services or informations that can be easily sourced for online without paying a spending a dime, and still at the end do not get a good returns.
A system where you spend and do not earn any reasonable return of investment doesn’t worth investing on. So photojobz is a no for me. Thanks a lot for this review, it’s more like an eye opener.
Agreed! Glad this helped! Thank you for the comment!
Hi Eric
This a very helpful review. I saw an add about photojobz, I even thought it was for hiring photographer, LOL. But I never clicked on the add to find more.
I think people should be real sometimes, why would I pay a monthly fee to learn what I can easily find online? I could give you a one time fee for the compilation of the information, because sometimes when doing an online search, you can get confused or overwhelmed with the results. So, creating an e-book that gathers everything can be helpful.
Is it possible to pay one-month subscription and download all the information needed and cancel the subscription at the end?
Thanks for sharing!
I actually thought about that myself. If someone felt that this info was worth the $27 you could, just as you said, download all the info and then cancel. Personally, after checking out the ebooks and videos myself, it’s not something I would spend $27 on. Great point made! Thanks for the comment!
I went through your site but not sure whether it’s good or it’s bad. It’s very well written or so but you put pros and cons and reading that makes me think that it may not be a great idea. We need to have more information on the facts it is good or bad. You write very well. Don’t know it is your site or not. I like Pros and cons.
Like your write up.
You watched the video and read the article and can’t tell if I’m saying Photojobz is a good investment? I suggest watching reading the article and watching the video again. I couldn’t be more clear. Thanks for the comment!
Eric, very informative. You were not frightened to tell the truth and displayed full understanding of the topic. As a novice photographer I appreciated the detail you have presented. The video was excellent and answered all questions without having to read the dialogue. Thank you for your interest.
Thank you so much!
Hmmm, you seem to be right on the money with this one. It does sound a little dodgy, but I have also seemed to find that a lot of products in click bank aren’t up to standard. Thank you for your information on this product.
I appreciate the comment. Thankfully there’s a 60 day money back guarantee. Thanks again!
That job listing for a nightclub in Oklahoma! hahaha That had me rolling! Thanks for the posting and explanation. It’s hard to know which services you find online will actually give you something beneficial and which ones will give you nothing special. I’m glad I read this. Thank you so much and continued success!
Yes, that job listing is completely bizarre, no? lol. Thanks for the comment!
Wow… basically paying this platform for some random eBooks with information that you may already know (if you come to the website you’re obviously trying to sell your photos so you do have knowledge on how it all works) 27$ may not sound like a lot of money but it is definitely something you can invest into something more productive.
Agreed! Thanks for the comment!
$27.00/mo. to provide you common sense information that is freely available online? Sounds like a lazy person’s way of tying to break in to an industry that is established. You need a good camera, a PC, maybe a photo editing software program and an internet connection and you’re pretty much set up. But to pay for a monthly service for services that already exist? This program sounds like a waste of time and money to me. Thanks for the warning.
My thoughts exactly. I really tried to find the service they were providing that would justify the monthly membership charges, but none ever turned up. Just goes to show how people will make money off of others. Thanks for the comment!
Thanks for this review.
I wonder how people pay 27 dollars each month for such a photography website that will yield nothing or little. Though they have money back gaurrantee but I consider it a waste of time to engage in such website. I thin I’m as confused as you, lol. Thanks once more!
Agreed! It was a bizarre experience for me just putting this together, lol. Thanks for the comment!
Oh, this is a very good review on photojobs. I have seen the adverts of the platform on the internet a couple of times and I was wondering if it is true because I am a photographer that works with an agent and I was thinking I could probably sell my own personal pictures and make money on it. Now I see that j would’ve just wasted my time and my product. Glad to read your review. Thanks!
Very glad to help! Thanks for the comment!
