Find Legal & Free Content for your Website

As a blogger I was always worried about getting free contents to maintain my blog. Like me, most of all the bloggers around the world are on the way for getting some free contents because good things cost much and in my case I can't afford much of that. So I have searched for such free contents and some times I got good free contents but not at all the best. But then I found a way of getting free contents like images, web templates which are very useful, good and legal at the same time. 

The are different ways you can find free contents from the internet.

1. Just Google  it

If you want to find something, search with its name + "free and legal". If you found something interesting, go for it.

2. Creative Commons 

Creative Commons search
CC is a web licensing website which provides licenses for various projects, images, videos and almost all the type of data available on the internet. So if you want something legal and free, go for the Creative Commons. CC provides a number of licenses which can be added to your site too. CC0, CC1.0, CC2.0, CC3.0, CC4.0

Things with CC0 license is absolutely free to use for any purposes. CC2.0 needs some attributes
CC3.0 needs attributes/credits and it cannot re-sell as it is.

There are different ways you can find a website which provides free contents with CC licenses.
a. Check for CC badges

Check if there any badges with CC placed in the website you want to download things, and if it is there, check for the license type. Some websites provides things but you need to give credits for them in your website.

b. Search with Creative Commons

CC provides an amazing search tool which connects you to other search engines. CC provides a filter by which you will get CC licensed contents. To get this go to CC Search and you will see a search bar and you can type what ever content you needed and you can select what search engine is to be used to search. The search engines like Google, YouTube, Flickr, SoundCloud, Pixabay are available for searching. By selecting the search engine, you will be re-directed to the selected search engine with the searching query with CC's filter filtering the results. Now you will get a number of results which are associated with any of the CC's license.
