Fotki is a digital photo sharing, video sharing and media social network website and web service suite; it is one of the world's largest social networking sites. As an image hosting service, Fotki licenses photo-sharing software for global companies such as Telecom Italia, Alice.it, Sears, Mark Travel, Vegas.com, and Funjet.com, among others.
As of January 2011, Fotki claimed to have over 1 million 600 thousand registered members from 241 countries and hosted over a billion digital images. It has been ranked in the 1400s in popularity by Alexa.[citation needed]
Originally offering free accounts, Fotki ceased offering free accounts in 2015.
Fotki was founded in 1998 by Katrin Lilleoks and Dmitri Don (who became President) to store and share photos and communicate with others around the world. The name is derived from colloquial terms for photography in several Slavic languages.[citation needed] It was initially used heavily in Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, and Russia, later becoming registered in the United States.
In 2001, the commercial version was launched. In 2003, Fotki became a registered trademark in the United States.[citation needed]
In 2007, Fotki.com was recognized by CNET as one of the best Web 2.0 applications. In 2008, founder Dmitri Don described it as a photo-sharing, photo-printing, photo-selling and blogging website. Daily figures, according to Don, included half a million unique daily visitors. The company remained based in Tallinn, with annual turnover of over $50 billion on its licensed or hosted services. Pavel Merdin oversaw the development team. In 2008, Fotki moved its office in the United States from New York to California. Telecom Italia and Alice.it both had web portals using the Fotki photo engine.
In 2011, Fotki stated it had over a million users and a billion images, and was registered in the United States. Features also included printing services, e-commerce photo sales with Fotki taking a 15% commission, and "guestbook facilities". In 2011, a free account had 50 MB of storage, with another 10 MB added monthly.
In June 2012, paid members with 5-year unlimited storage accounts received message that they no longer have access to the original images unless they paid extra fees. In August 2015, all free members received a message to upgrade to a paid service. Fotki stated they could no longer support free members since they were doing away with ads.[failed verification] On October 1, 2015, all free member accounts were deleted.
