Free Photo Website Comparison

Comparing four free photo website, Morgue File, Pexels, Gratisography, Unsplash.

I was searching for the photos of sunsets.

Pexels provided the best overall photo.

Pexels offered the widest variety in photos.

Morgue File and Pexels are tied for the easiest search engine to navigate.

Gratisography was the easiest website to download photos off of.


Morgue File  

Pro: Easy to search with many photos.
Con: Downloading process is slow and sometimes doesn't work.








Pexels

Pro: Easy to search with a WIDE variety of photos.
Con: Downloading process has a couple steps that could be cut out.








Gratisography

Pro: Easy downloading process: click and it's downloading.
Con: No way to search for a specific photo.






Unsplash

Pro: Offers a variety of very high quality photos.
Con: Downloading process is very confusing.













The next time I need a free photo for a website I will use Pexels, because they have the widest variety of high quality photos with a decently easy downloading process.

  1. You might wanna change the link color of the dark orange in your theme, just a little hard to read. Overall a good review though :)

  2. I like the content, it's short, simple, and easy to browse. I would add captions to your photos, or make them link to the site you got them from. :)
