Overall Satisfaction with Pexels

With Pexels I found a simple and pure way to obtain images, videos, and backgrounds that I need to keep my articles well illustrated. It offers a better experience than many other similar platforms. I usually use it while I am writing articles and when I am about to finish the text I go to the site to obtain the images that are related to the main text.

  • Positive: the writing material when well illustrated gain more engagement.
  • Positive: images can inspire better descriptions of scenarios and landscapes and therefore can make long texts more attractive.
  • Positive: we saved a lot of time when writing.
  • Negative: some images do not have enough quality for printing purposes.
Pexels is more simple. The alternative options give no good search/selection experience. For example, you are limited to searching just one characteristic or the results are not always accurate. For example, your search for A and get B. Finally, I also note that the user does not always get the results listed in a way that makes easier the image choice.

Pexels is well suited for those writing reports, blogs, articles, and social media. I cannot cite any field where Pexels is not suitable. However, if you do not have the necessity of illustrating your writing material I see that Pexels will not help that much. I also cite that even in these situations you can go to Pexels to search for images that can inspire your content and writing style, with emotion or description accuracy.
