12 Steps To Implement A Powerful
Image Strategy For Your Blog

Image Traffic Secrets

Images Are Potent And Are
Readily Shared Across The
Internet Through Pinterest
And Like Minded Networks

Including images in your blog posts draws your visitors in since most people will scan rather than read your posts word for word.

There are many sources for free images that can be downloaded.

Be aware that images called royalty free may actually require a one time fee.

Copyright free images are essentially completely free.

Follow these 12 steps for an effective image strategy:

1. Download suitable images for your blog/site's content from any or all of the following free image sites:
   

   • Flickr
   • 123RF
   • Stock.Xchng
   • Free Digital Photos
   • MorgueFile
   • PhotoXpress
   • EveryStockPhoto
   • StockVault
   • FreeRange
   • Photl
   • FreePhotosBank
   • Image After

2. Upload images to your blog's (WordPress) media library.
   
   Having them in the media library means you will have a ready made image url for insertion in your posts.
3. Start each post with content appropriate image. (150 X 130 pixels - Image will show up in your RSS feeds.)
4. Use images within your blog posts and make sure you have an Image Resizer in your marketing arsenal.
5. Make you have joined Pinterest
6. Create one or more boards on Pinterest that correspond to your blog content.
