How to get copyright free images for commercial use

Welcome to InfoByAK's new article on Blogging. Today I am gonna explain how you can find copyright free images for your Blog post and YouTube video thumbnail.

It's very hard and time consuming to create images for Blog post or YouTube video thumbnail by yourself. So, I'll explain how you are gonna get copyright free images for comercial use.

Why to use images in Blog Post?
If you are a new blogger, then let me tell you that according to Google, content is considered as a king, but to rank any article, just having content is not enough. Using images is a very important part of SEO, which also helps in ranking your blog posts and also brings traffic to your website or blog.



When a person searches any keyword on Google and sees the image by going to the image section, then he/she can download it or redirect it to the website from which the website is ranking the image.



Can I use Google images in my blog post?

No, you should not download images from Google Images and use them in your blog post or YouTube video. If you do this, you may receive a copyright email from Google, which may endanger your blog or channel.



Tips to use Google images in Blog Post?

95% of the images shown in Google images are such that you cannot use them in your blog posts or YouTube videos, but about 5%  images are that you can use directly or a little bit by modifying. Now we have to find out where those 5% images will be found?

As you search any keyword on Google and click on the image section of Google, you will get thousands of images within seconds, but the problem is to find out which of these images is copyright free? The good thing for you is that you can filter images by usage rights, which will help you avoid the issue.

Here’s how to filter google images:

● Click on Tools. This will expand a drop down menu that lets you sort the images by their license.
Depending on what you need (you might want to use the image as it is or make certain modifications to it) select the category that best fits your intended usage.
That's it.

Now you can download the images and use personally or commercially. Although copyright free Google image is not much better than paid image, but at least it's free to use.


If I talk about myself or professional bloggers, only a few people use Google images, otherwise all bloggers and YouTubers download images from free stock photography sites. Below are some free stock photography sites from which you can download the image and use it anywhere. Images obtained from these websites are copyright free, high quality and professional look.

Hre are a couple of my favorite free stock image sites:

Unsplash
Pixabay
Pexels
StockSnap
Burst

PNGimg

हालाँकि इन साइट्स से डाऊनलोड की गई इमेज को आप बिना किसी मोडिफिकेशन और क्रेडिट के यूज़ कर सकते हैं लेकिन मुझे लगता है हमें उसके क्रिएटर को क्रेडिट देना चाहिए ताकि उन्हें भी अच्छा लगे और वे और ज्यादा अच्छी-अच्छी इमेज बनाने के लिए मोटिवेट हों।
