# The best FREE stock photo and video websites

[Previous](https://www.missiondrive.io/blogs/little-missions/how-to-find-broken-links-on-your-website-pages-fast)

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but if you use the same stock photos that every other website is using, you’ll blend in with the rest of the crowd.

The answer? We’ve compiled a list of the best stock photo and video websites that you can use for free. So check out our top five, and let your content stand out from the rest.

1. [Pexels](https://www.pexels.com/)   
Pexels is our go-to website here at Mission Drive. They have millions of stock images that are tagged and searchable, making it easy to find the exact photo you need. What’s more, when downloading an image you can choose several size options, including a custom size.

2. [Pixabay](https://pixabay.com/)   
Pixabay is also a free stock photo website that is perfect for finding unique images. Plus, it’s very easy to navigate through the millions of options using the filters.
