At Q2B we know how important images are, which is why we insist to our clients on the impact they have on people who view their website. An image can make you stay to read or run away from a page. Without neglecting the textual content, it is essential that the images are high-quality, impactful, and positive.

The suitability and empathy of those images with your target audience are fundamental for them to understand and feel identified with your business, to feel that you are addressing them. That is why from the design department we advise our clients to include people in their images, people with whom they can identify. This gives the page a closer and more human character, attributes that are sometimes lacking on the internet and are increasingly important.

With the visual bombardment we "suffer" daily, we can lose the value of photography. But we must not stop giving images the importance they have, appreciating the art behind each one, the intention and work of the photographer, as well as the fact that they can help us emphasize the message we want to convey. That is why it is important to use image banks and not just grab the first photo we find without considering all this.

In the image banks we find on the internet, there are two variants: free banks, with very high-quality images but sometimes lacking faces or more specific cases, and paid banks, which include image packs and greater variety than free ones.

Today we make that search easier for you with a selection of our favorite photo banks:

FREE

PEXELS Our go-to free image bank. You can find a large number of quality images with a good search engine to refine results.
