Build Your Own Stock Footage Website

Hero banner for a stock website: black background with orange and light-blue stripes across a bold 'STOCK WEBSITE', 'FIX IT IN POST' at the top, and the subtitle 'Your own stock footage store' with the URL fixitinpost.media/stock-website.

Part of the Fix It In Post toolkit

Your own stock footage store. Your prices, your niche, your customers. The agencies take the lion’s share and bury your clips in a catalogue of millions. This template gives you the other option: a stock website you own, selling the footage only you have.

  • Built on WordPress + WooCommerce

What it includes

  • A real storefront. Browse, search and filter by category, location and collection, built for footage rather than bolted onto a shop theme.
  • Streaming previews. Watermark-free browsing pain is over: clips preview instantly via CDN streaming without giving the master away.
  • Instant delivery. Customers buy and download full-resolution files immediately, with licensing baked into the product.
  • Early-access windows. Offer members-only access to new clips for the first weeks before they go on general sale.
  • Direct publishing from your Mac. Clip Up Pup pushes finished, keyworded clips straight into the store: media upload, product creation, pricing, live.
  • Ownership, permanently. It is your WordPress site on your hosting. No commission, no platform risk, no algorithm deciding your visibility.

Why go direct

Niche beats volume. A regional or specialist library that owns its audience can charge real prices for footage nobody else has, instead of competing with ten million generic clips for pennies. Agencies still have their place; this gives you a second income stream that compounds and stays yours.

Running live  This template is not a mockup. It runs a real, trading stock footage store today.

Frequently asked questions

Can I still sell on Adobe Stock and Shutterstock?

Yes. Most contributors run both: agencies for reach, your own store for margin and the niche buyers who come looking for exactly your coverage.

What does it run on?

WordPress and WooCommerce on ordinary hosting, with media on CDN storage and streaming built for video. Nothing exotic, nothing rented from a startup that might vanish.

Do I need to be technical?

Comfort with WordPress basics helps. The heavy lifting, from the storefront to the publishing pipeline, is already built.
