Images have the power to act as click-bait - photographs can illustrate blog posts, make your professional website more attractive, and help illuminate a historical topic. In this episode I discuss using creative commons and public domain images as part of your online presence. I breakdown the types of image licenses and mention some of my favourite places for finding photographs.
I would love to hear about where folks find public domain and creative commons images, leave a comment or send me a message on Twitter.
