It's a real pain to find right image for blog or website which is free for commercial use. Image we use for our blog, website or artwork should be apropriate with our theme or article, and if it's free for for commercial use it would be best.
You can get free stock images that fall under the Creative Commons Zero license or similar; meaning you can copy, modify, and use any photo you find, even for commercial purposes, without having to ask permission or provide attribution.
In this post you can find 20 websites with best free images. Specifically I chosee sites that offer Creative Commons Zero licenses or similar so that the images are free to use for commercial purposes.
