The Wild World of Stock Photography

Posted by on November 29th, 2021

Throughout my travels in ghost writing, webpage building, and social media managing, I often find a need to use stock images, or creative commons images to use beside text copy. Generally, the world of stock photography is infinite; you can pretty much find anything you’re looking for when you go on iStock or otherwise. But… Sometimes you find a lot of weird stuff too.

Everyone messes up at some point or another. We are all human, and because of that, things can — and do — go wrong.

That’s why it’s important to have a variety of methods to reach your customers — and your target audience — when it comes to announcing new products, new service offerings, discounts, changes to your business, and more.
