As the majority of my pictures are motorsport, they can't go on there anyway so never followed it up.
I am a member of a photograph forum and I know that some of the members have sold their photos for as much as £30 each. Is that the sort of ball park figure you are thinking of? Less or more? The topic occasionally comes up when someone complains about a copyright infringement and asks for advice.

I sometimes enter photography competitions for cash prizes etc, but have never considered selling any of the photos as it is a hobby
