Especially if you are running low on flat-lay images or didn’t think to get them when you worked with a professional brand photographer for your website photos.

But how do you use them effectively so they mesh well with the look of your site?

➡️ When using stock images, you need to be strategic. You shouldn’t use stock images as your only image source throughout your website as it does not provide originality, show off your personality or your brand. Use stock images where needed and only where they’ll work best.

➡️ When selecting your stock images, select those that align with your brand colors, website branding, and overall website style. We don’t want any pictures here that look misplaced!

➡️ And finally, when selecting your stock images, I’d recommend that you first search on Wix or your website builder may have pre-vetted images for commercial use. I also shared this great post last month in which I shared all the juicy details on what sites to use.
