If you‘re on Twitter, we just made it easier for you to tweet about all the cool work you‘re showcasing on Shutterstock. If you haven‘t yet taken the plunge into the Twittersphere, there‘s never been a better time.

Introducing Shuttertweet, a new tool for Twitter that allows you to automatically send out tweets when new images and footage clips are added to your portfolio.

You can even make money through Shuttertweet because we include your referral ID in the Twitter URLs, so you‘ll earn a commission from anyone who makes a purchase after clicking on the tweeted link!

Shuttertweet also sends an update regarding your download counts on a daily basis to share the success of your portfolio with people who follow you on Twitter.

Here‘s how the tweets will look:

- I sold 10 images today through @shutterstock! My gallery is here: http://www.shutterstock.com (link to your gallery will be provided)

- I just got 10 images accepted to @shutterstock! Check out my gallery here: http://www.shutterstock.com (link to your gallery will be provided)

To sign up, login to the submit site and click the option under "Make Money" (or click here), and then connect your Shutterstock account to your Twitter account, which will approve us to send tweets on your behalf. You can deactivate Shuttertweet at any time.

“Shuttertweet is truly a win-win for our submitters: not only does it automatically showcase their work on Twitter, it also allows them to make money via our affiliate marketing program using Twitter,” said Jon Oringer, founder and CEO of Shutterstock.

“Shuttertweet is a great way to advertise my work,” said Shutterstock Submitter Jake Hellbach. “I used to post links to my images and footage clips manually on Twitter when I had the time, but with this tool, I know my name is getting out to stock image and stock footage buyers each day, so I can get back to shooting.”
