When many people need images for their website, they think of Google Images. I will explain how to use Google Images for your website safely because you cannot just use any image you see on Google. Just because they are posted in Google Images does not mean they are free to use.
WHERE I GET MY IMAGES FROM
There are many different websites that offer free images but I am going to share with you the 4 places I get my Free Images from. 1 – WikiMedia Commons, 2 – Pixabay, 3 – Free Google Images, and 4 – I take them myself with my smartphone. I bet you are probably wondering what are Free Google Images and where can you find them? See below.
