Make Your Blog Posts Catch Attention

cargoinginlake

Not a pretty thought, is it? We set a record low for the date of 14 degrees last night at the Tallahassee airport. I sure wouldn’t want my car to veer off the road and plunge into the lake in THIS weather.

Or – actually – any other weather.

And what if that car was your blog? You sure don’t want your blog drowning, either. And that graphic you see might actually help you keep your blog afloat & effective.

Studies show there’s a big advantage, consistently, to including a graphic in your blog post. More people will start to read the post, and more will finish it. With a WordPress blog, it’s easy to add a graphic in your post.

Now … about graphics.

You can’t just right-click and “Save” any graphic you see online. Most of them are copyrighted.

However, there are some really good online sources of graphics. These 3 all have free graphics and some also have pay-for graphics, that you may find worthwhile:

Public-Domain-Photos

You can find a lot of other resources for free images here:
