One of the biggest blunders most of the newbie bloggers commit is by downloading images from Google directly. If you are one of those who is doing something like this, you might end up facing the legal issue shortly.
Not only Google but if you are using someone else’s images without permission, you are violating other’s copyright. I have talked about this in detail over here.
Now, you might be thinking:
Hey Harsh, then where we should get images for our blog & social media?
Well, there are many ways by which you can download images for commercial use & you don’t have even to give credits. I have listed down such websites over here. Alternatively, you can use Google or Flickr to find such images. For that, refer to the below-listed blog post:

Today, I’m sharing one free mobile app that is going to be very handy for every blogger, social media influencer to get free images even for commercial use on their mobile. One of the most popular free images site ‘Pixabay’ recently launched the mobile app for both Android & iOS. Using the mobile app you get access to their over one million quality CC0 image at your fingertips.
Pixabay free images app for Android & iPhone:
Earlier finding free to use images on mobile was not easy at all & with the launch of Pixabay app, millions of users can enjoy free images for various work directly on mobile. The app is available for both Android & iOS.
Once you have downloaded the app, it’s pretty easy to use from there. You should register yourself which takes about few seconds & then enjoy the mega collection of quality CC0 images.
Some key features of the app:
- The app is completely free with no distracting ads
- Blazingly fast search and a user-friendly interface

Images must be important for any blogs. Publicly shared web images is not right for blog some images is copyright. Thanks for share it !!!

Lol…I was doin biggest mistake well. I was downloading pics from google. Now I am gonna use pixabay from now…thnkew harsh sir
Pixabay is the one of my favourite site to get free images. It has listed thousands of high quality images.
Another my favourite sites to download images are Canva and Flickr.
Thanks for sharing.
I love pixabay and I’m using it since years now but the only problem with its Android app is when I try to download images it says ‘download failed’. For whatever reason and also I check the app’s review where the users are stating the same problem.
Good information. Pixabay seems to be a bit ahead of its peers in its business. This is also a good news for webmasters as they will probably be getting access to images optimised for mobiles. This may help ensure accelerated mobile pages for your site which is important as Google is considering it a significant ranking factor for SEO in 2017.
Really nice app to search commercial images for free 👍
Hello Harsh,
I have been using them for a long time. I know they have their Android App, which is what they are promoting since the past a week or so aggressively. Beautiful collection but my question is can we edit those photos and what photo editor are you using?
Yes.I have learnt new sources for beautiful images to be used on the blogs.Good that pixabay launched mobile app to use it same.It will be more usefull,as we can search on the go.
Thanks harsh for the sharing the great source again . :)
