12 Places to Find Free Photos To Use for Marketing
Published by liorwn at July 12, 2016
When it comes to marketing your business the old adage “you have to spend money, to make money” normally applies.
However when it comes to photos to use in your marketing efforts, you may not have to spend a dime.
So whether you’re looking for pictures to use on your blog posts, emails or social media accounts , you’re in luck.
There are more sites than ever before that offer this service. Here’s a look at some of the best:
1. Pexels.com
Pexels is one of the best and largest directories for free images. The site collates photos from many other sites and puts their collection under one roof. If you need a wide variety of photos quickly, this site has what you need.
Just by searching for “House” on pexels, dozens of images that are suitable for advertising your inspection business pop up. For example, if you wanted to post a picture on your landing page describing some of the benefits of a Home Inspector you can post an image and speak about the feeling of security.
In practice
One of the biggest advantages of hiring a home inspector is the peace of mind that comes along with buying a home that you know is up to code. Whether you’re buying your first house, or your 30th house, having a professional make sure that it is the ideal place for you and your family is never a bad idea.
2. Picjumbo.com
One of Picjumbo’s best assets is that you don’t need to credit the photographer when you use their images. Every day, they upload and organize many new photos. You can also sign up for an email where they send you new images straight to your inbox.
This is so great for brainstorming and writer’s block. We’ve previously mentioned how important it is to update your website for google ranking purposes.
So if you’ve decided on the route of keeping a blog, it doesn’t hurt to constantly have inspiration coming your way. All it takes is a picture of rainfall to make even the newest home inspector think of about water damage. And all the ways to prevent it.
There you have a topic, and picture by simply checking your email.
3. Flickr.com
Flickr has been a popular photo option for years. Besides having a vast collection of high-resolution photos, the site allows you to share and save your photos, so you don’t have to worry about losing them. Flickr also allows you to edit your pictures. They do encourage you to link your pictures to the original owner. Once you register a free account with them, you can access their photos.
When searching on Flickr you have the option to change the license on the picture, allowing you to find thousands of unlicensed photos. A quick search for home inspection while having the ‘commercial use allowed’ option chosen, brings up a plethora of free images you can use to spruce up every page on your website.
4. FreePhotosBank.com
FreePhotosBank offers high quality, easy-to-download photos. Most of their images are “abstract shots” like backgrounds, patterns, nature shots, and other pictures without people in them. FreePhotosBank doesn’t require you to open an account to use their photos.
Some of the best uses for images like this are as backgrounds, it’s very easy to take your logo, put it over an abstract background and make a nice looking twitter or facebook timeline photo.
5. Unsplash.com
Unsplash doesn’t have a huge database, but they have unique and fun images. This single column Tumblr page posts 10 high-resolution images each week. They don’t require you to register, but subscribing to Unsplash allows you to receive these images in your inbox.
