If you have an eCommerce and you usually publish articles so that Google visits your store more often, one of the needs you have will be images. These you already know can be copyrighted. AND One of the ways to avoid problems is to use the best image banks to download the ones that are consistent with the topic you have written.
But which ones are there? They are all the same? Are there free image banks without copyright? Well yes, and here we are going to leave you a list of all the ones you can visit to find that image you are looking for.

We start with one of the best image banks, and also one of the most used. We let you know because, if what you want is to use free photos, royalty free and that no one uses them, this may make things more complicated for you.
Still, it is one of the best because it has almost everything. Of course, if you ever put a word in Spanish and it doesn't give you results, try doing the same with that word in English. It's silly, but we have noticed that your search engine sometimes gives some results for Spanish and others for English.
Just as they warn you, You don't have to give authorship to the author, although if you want to do so that's fine.
Jay Mantri
We went from one very well known to another not so well known. Actually We go to Jay Mantri's website and there we find a site full of photographs by the author himself that allows you to download and use them.
In fact, new ones are uploaded month after month and they have exceptional quality as well as being impressive.
Now, it is true that they do not work for everyone, and it will depend on the topic to be discussed in your eCommerce whether you find a suitable one or not.
StockSnap.io
Another of the best image banks that you have on the Internet, to download for free and without having to give authorship, is this one. They are high definition photos that, as you will see on the page, are classified by categories.
Of course, you have a search engine so you can go directly to the ones that are most useful to you. And there is also an extra: it has an online image editor with which you can modify the photo to your liking so you don't have to do it later (you already download it perfect for your publication).
Cupcake
No, we are not giving you an image bank with photos of cupcakes (or decorated muffins). It is the name, curious to say the least, of the photographer Jonas Wimmerström's page who offers their images for free so you can use them anywhere without giving them authorship.
The photos are varied but, as we told you before, it will depend on the theme you need them to be to find some suitable ones.
123RF
Yes, we know, this is one of the best image banks but paid. However, it has a section that is not so well known where you can download free vectors and images.
The only thing it asks you for is that you register.. But once you do it you will be able to access that content.
Of course, the photos are sometimes not exactly what you are looking for, nor are they of good quality. In fact, when you see the free ones and the paid ones, the difference is very noticeable.
But who knows? Maybe you will find the one that really works for you for publication.

This site is not that well known. And yet it is a huge library of images that are not copyrighted.
It only has one problem and that is that it does not have a search engine. You have to look based on the classification they have made to see the images that fit what you are looking for.
We recommend it because It is one of the sites where photos are least repeated among search engines. They have many originals that you don't find on other sites (and that is good for you to publish photos that no one else has, without paying).
freepng
Another of the best image banks, also with photos that are not usually seen on other sites, is Freepng. It is characterized by offering vectors above all, and with a transparent background (hence the png).
It has its own search engine, but you can also see the different categories in which the images it has are classified.
Foodies Feed
If your eCommerce is based on food, this is going to be one of the best image banks you will have. And it is that There are only images of food, dishes, ingredients, foods...
And all of this for free. So for articles related to food it can be perfect, although for now it does not reach 2000 files (time at time).
Burst
A priori, this is one of the least known image banks. But for online stores or websites it can be the best option to find images that work.
The only thing they ask you is to register on the page. And, in return, You can have thousands of free images that you can use commercially or personally.
As we tell you, it is one that, for eCommerce, is worth having signed because you can find photos that fit well with your business.

Although we are talking about the best image banks, this one, which also has thousands of them, also has videos, all of them with a Creative Commons Zero license (it means that you can download them for free and without authorship).
It has many different categories and photos that you don't see in other image banks, so there is a greater chance of finding some unique ones (at least when you use them).
As you can see, there are many better image banks. And more and more come out. What you should keep in mind is that when you download these images, many others may already be using them. And if you want something more original and unused, you'll have to dig a little deeper and go to what they don't use. Do you recommend any more?
