Top 5 free Stock Photo Sites

Yes, I have a favorite top 4 free Stock Photo Sites that I use all the time. I have been blogging and working on websites for many years now, and I wish I had known about these free Stock Photo Sites when I first started. Over the years, more and more of them pop up, and the image and stock footage quality are amazing. So amazing that it is hard to believe they are free, but they are.

Let me be clear. Free means you access the site. Pick your photo or video. Download your photo or Video. No payment is needed for anything. Most can create an account, but you do not even have to do that if you don’t want to.

These Stock Photo Sites also allow you to use the photos or videos for your websites, video creations, and you can monetize them on your platform of choice. Credit to the photographer or videographer is not required, but it is still nice to do so.

Now! On to my list of iMarly favorite top 4 free Stock Photo Sites.

1. Unsplash

I started with Unsplash because it is my Favorite. Unsplash only features high-resolution stunning photos in JPG format. The library is extensive and growing every day. It is my favorite because I always find what I need, so when searching, I start with Unsplash. I should add that I have my own profile in Unsplash. Check out my collection while you are there.

2. Pixabay

Pixabay is my first go-to for Video Footage. Another huge library that is constantly growing. You can also find an extensive library of Royalty Free music free for commercial and non-commercial use. Pixabay License.

3. Pexels

Pexels has amazing 4K footage and videos. You can search by orientation, size, or color, which can be handy for websites where design can call for specific sizes and colors. Pexels License

4. Coverr

Coverr has beautiful and breathtaking footage of all kinds. I love aerial videography but I have yet to come up with something creative to do with it. Stay tuned I will think of something. Coverr is all video footage with amazing choices. Coverr License.

This is the end of my top 4 Free Stock Photo/Video Sites. Again I say I wish I would have known these when I began. Please carefully review the license for each site before downloading, and if there is a special license needed, you will be prompted to review the requirements before the download.

I use many other sites, but they can be difficult due to the mixed license requirements, so the above sites really have it together with a large selection that is easy to use.

Before I go, I have to share that there is another thing I wished I had when I began, and that was somewhere to go for honest real help. I have learned all that I know on my own and had my fair share of scammers and unnecessary expenses. I created that place, and I hope to get members like myself who want honest feedback to help them grow. Please join my Facebook group YouTube Creators and Bloggers Support Community.
