‘How to get FREE images for your Blog or PLR content?
When you buy PLR it mostly comes without images either to support the content or for the accompanying social media or blog posts, many of us end up questioning how to get FREE images for your Blog or PLR content?
I always try to include images with the PLR content I create on plr-printables.com. For example, while creating my tech neck PLR pack I was able to take some photographs in the hospital and used some images from my own x-rays. This was possible as I have personal experience as a sufferer of this condition. In fact, I only really write about subjects that I feel I know well enough. It makes the research easier and the writing better. You can pick up my Tech Neck PLR here.
Sometimes it is not practical or even possible to use your own images but you can’t just do a google image search and use any image you find. Even searching for creative commons or royalty free images is not a reliable way to ensure you can legally use an image.
I have put together a list of my current top 3 reliable sources for high quality and really license free – and free in the financial sense too. These images are great for your blog posts for your out of the box or repurposed PLR digital products.

The images are great quality and no attribution required
Jeffrey Betts has provided a wonderful selection of photographs and videos in a range of categories and says ‘They can be freely downloaded, used, and redistributed for both personal and commercial purposes. Credit or attribution is not required under this license, however, we always love a shout out. It spreads the word about MMT and the photos/videos that are available.’ sounds fair to me!
The desk and technology photographs are excellent.
