Top 10 Websites To Find Free Images To Use In Your Blogging and Marketing
We all want to use images in our marketing and blog post so I want to share with you some of the FREE sites I have found that allow you to do this.
I know it’s easy to go to Google images and find lots of images but sometimes these may be copy written and you may not find the one you want.
Here are a 10 Free sites I found that has amazing images you can grab for free or maybe for a small fee.
1. picjumbo.com
First of all there are no restrictions – you do not need to give credit the author when using images from this website. Many new photos are uploaded every day and organized accordingly. They furnish a wide range of images depending what category you’re looking for.
2. Flickr.com
In addition to the large collection of high quality photos, Flickr gives you the option of sharing and saving your photos. You can organize all of your pictures and not worry about losing them. You can edit your pictures. One thing I suggest is when using someone else’s photo is to ensure that you link your picture to them. You will need to register as a member to be able to gain access to the variety of options offer by Flickr.
3. FreePhotosBank.com
These are really easy to download photos. They focus more on abstract shots, architecture, landscape, nature, backgrounds and patterns etc. Keep in mind that you do not any to create an account.
4. Wikimedia Commons
Is a free use database with millions of images, sounds, and videos.
5. Pexels.com
This is one of the largest free image directories. It has collated photos from many other free image.
6. Morgue file
This is a mix of CC0 licensed images and images with other licenses.
7. Unsplash.com
A small one-column site that was built on tumblr. They post 10 fantastic images every ten days. No need to be registered. You can subscribe to receive photos directly into your inbox.
8. FreeMediaGoo.com
This one allows you to credit them if you want to but you don’t need to. They upload high quality illustrations of backgrounds and many other photos. They have plenty of visual mediums you can choose from. Images have no restrictions.
9. Pixabay
This website allows photos to be uploaded by users as in Creative Commons. You can search and sort your pictures. There are no image restrictions. It offers a range of high quality photos and thought to be one of the best internal search engine sites.
10. Blogphoto.tv
Actually, there are plenty of free images. The disadvantage is the loose image restriction that comes with it.
In Blog photo, there is more than just getting you the photo you need. They offer resources such as templates, articles planners etc. to help you grow your digital footprint.
