If you want a constant (and constantly growing) revenue stream from microstock--upload new images regularly. Many of the sites sort images in a number of views from newest to oldest by default, so that designers who are regulars can find the fresh photos and vector images quickly. This means that the more new images you keep in front of them, the more likely sales will be. As well, the more images  that you have in your library, the more statistically  likely they are to show up in keyword searches.
