Images are an important part of any website and blog post. The Internet is having billions of images available on it but you can not use all of them for personal use as many of them are copyrighted.

Many people use the Google Image search to get the images and use them on their blog posts which is not a good way. The image owners can cause legal threats to you if you use their copyrighted images without their permission.
