Content at Scale vs. Pexels vs. Shutterstock

Anyone looking to update or add long form content on their website would greatly benefit from using Content at Scale! I can't imagine not using it for our business. Keep in mind you will need to edit what it produces. In our experience we could not have published without editing. They offer great resources to assist you with the best way to edit and ways to use the tool in general

It is best suited for medium enterprises who get a lot of workload for their video productions and have many clients but lack of creative individuals. because it is a bit expensive than other competitors, but for some studios having good budget and looking for improving their work quality then shutterstock is the best platform with very good quality and quantity of graphics, photos and videos. for small studios who are just starting out i think it is bit costly you can even go for some subscription based platforms which offer unlimited downloads but their is a bit downside you will have to compromise with quality of work. so in short if you have a decent budget then shutterstock is best for your creative needs.

Pexels is extremely easy to use. Because it integrates with Canva, it makes our workflow smoother. This also saves us a significant amount of time running our business. The interface is also clean and easy to understand and follow, leading to an increase in productivity and much greater efficiency. Overall, this saves us time and money

Shutterstock is easy to use. The UI is intuitive. Queries produce applicable assets. My only major gripe with the program is that there are sometimes "preimum assets" that are in queries that I wish there was a way to filter those out as they do not come with my subscription

While I continue to SurferSEO for it's Audits, Grow Flow and other SEO related functionalities, Content at Scale has proven to be the better choice for producing content, with input from SurferSEO (and other tools) helping to select topics.

Jasper was a great tool, but I was looking for a more one shot solution to producing long form content than Jasper provided. I've produced a huge variety of other kinds of content with Jasper, including a book!, but it took a bit more effort.

Pexels has a few unique features that stand out, the most important being a 1-click download from the search results. No need to navigate to another page to find a "download" button. This reduces the time required to find and download an appropriate image. The search results load fast, with lazy loading, so there's no annoying pagination at the bottom. I often travel as I work, and at times my internet connection can be slow or unstable. This kind of feature may seem minor to some users, but when on a slower connection, it makes a big difference. If a search term is too broad, it can recommend related keywords to search for - this helps to find the right image faster.
