If you are a web developer, content creator, or graphic designer you could need stock images. But finding stock images might be very expensive and hard therefore I will show you the best three free stock image provider sites.

1.Unsplash

Unsplash allows photographers to upload photos, which are then curated by a team of photo editors. That's why it is not that easy to make them accept your photos.

Every photo inside Unsplash is free, if you want to upload any photos you must accept the creative commons.

According to Similarweb, Unsplash takes 35.99M total visits a month.

🔴There are no videos inside Unsplash.

2.Pexels

My favorite: Pexels is a free stock photo and video website that helps designers, bloggers, and everyone who is looking for visuals to find great photos and videos that can be downloaded and used for free.

There are no curators who control your uploads so it is so much easier to upload images or videos against Unsplash.

According to Similarweb, Pexels takes 31.40M total visits a month.

You can visit my Pexels account here.

3.Pixabay

Pixabay is the same as Pexels but it also includes PNG’s and animations. Actually, I don’t recommend Pixabay for more professional works because Pixabay accepts all kinds of work. For that, it is not easy to find the professional images or videos you want.

According to Similarweb, Pixabay takes 34.31M total visits a month.
