I've largely been using Google images to source the images I use on one of the blogs I write, and I'm obviously aware that this could lead to all manner of copyright issues if found out. You're so right about images though. If placed strategically they can help to guide the readers eyes down the page, and also beak up what might be a large and unsightly block of text.

We've jut started our own blog and we're dealing with a rather high bounce rate at the moment on the new pages. We observed though, that more of our visitors are staying beyond the make-or-break 5 seconds on the pages where we also posted some images. The Flickr Creative Commons search page is just fantastic. Thank you. Thanks for this post and the resources you’ve shared here. We’ve jut started our own blog and we’re dealing with a rather high bounce rate at the moment on the new pages.

Some stock photography can cost from $5 all the way up to $100 per image. Some of the images we have from Getty go for around $50 per image. And when you factor in such prices, I'd like to think that PicApp really makes sense. :) Thanks to both of you for your comments. Ruth - You hit the nail on the head.

It can get pricey paying for images when you post 3-4 articles a week. Thanks for sharing sites for free images. It can get pricey paying for images when you post 3-4 articles a week.
