How to find legal and free images to use on your website

The Morgue File

I'm cheap. I also love Free Images.  Every post on my site has at least one image.  Often times there's a pun involved.  In this case it's a dumb picture of my dog (lucky you).  They say it keeps the reader interested, but really I do it mostly for me. It's important to …

Searching for images

Images, Images, Images

It's definitely sucking

A blog post is nothing if it doesn't have images.  That's my opinion and I'm sticking to it. When it comes to the finding the images there are generally three options - using your own, using 'stock' images, or searching the internet.  I'll show you how to do all three but before I do let me first …

How to write a blog post

I write blog posts daily.  Typically they might be about a change in a social media platform, or a ‘how to’ strategy ranging anywhere from beginner to middle advanced. I don’t know why but the advanced advanced stuff turns people off. Often times you’ll hear me mention that you always need to …

I Take Crappy Photos

No really, I do.  If I do manage to get a good shot, it was ALL LUCK. Speaking of luck...  Lucky for me there is a plugin called PhotoDropper. With it I can do a search for Creative Commons Licensed images that are approved for my type of blog and with a few clicks I can find, insert and give …

Pinterest Poorly

So…   Last week I created a small graphic voicing my opinion on how some people are using Pinterest poorly. Just my opinion, and I'm sticking by it. The graphic got a few shares, a few re-pins, and generally spread around as you might expect.  Yay for me! In a seemingly an unrelated post, …

Thoughts on Censorship

I was watching some regular TV in the early evening and was a little surprised at some of the words they were able to say with having to bleep them out.  You’ve probably noticed this as well.  It got me to thinking about censorship. FOR THE RECORD I can swear like a sailor and often do (maybe even …

Homebase: Why you need to OWN your content

The other day a good friend of mine Lesley Lambert tweeted that her Facebook Page was still there but all the content of hers was not. That’s weird.  She’s been adding content to her Facebook Page for a very long time.  She’s a regular blogger and has hundreds if not thousands of posts, most …

Finding Images

Sometimes I’ll use a photo or screen capture that illustrates a point.  I’ll also use an image more as a pun.  No matter which, it’s images are what make our posts interesting and appealing to the eye. What happens when you don’t have the right image?  Do you do a Google Image search and just …

Who to host with?

It's the #1 question I'm asked - where to find inexpensive shared hosting. Here's who I recommend.
Data Servers are a HUGE drain on the power grid. Here's a host that sources 300% of it's power from Wind and Solar! On top of that, their service ROCKS!
Check out GreenGeeks

Need more power?

WPEngine has it!
