I hope you didn’t know that online magazines, blogs, news website or any company websites requires images for their projects or blog post. You may have used images from searching on google images for your school projects but these website can’t do soo all images you found on internet must have owned by someone and using such pics may get a company or website I legal trouble so stock websites came up where anyone can buy licensed pic. They also allow anyone people to submit their photos for sell so here are some website where you can sell your photos.
