I’ve joined the Unsplash content network, and you should too!

I’ve been using Unsplash for around four months now, It’s fantastic to use as a consultant to communicate a message without using text content and the fact that the content network now has over 200’000 photographers means you get access (for free might I add) to literally millions of incredible images.

As I’d used around ten images from the platform on various social platforms it got me thinking that I should contribute to the Unsplash library too, so I signed up with a few images I’d taken over the years that I’m not going to do anything with professionally and would feel proud to see others take advantage of.

To my surprise within days I was in the top 10% of creators, have had over eight thousand downloads and also received a few new instagram followers along the way, see my stats below.

I was amazed to see this level of organic reach from a photographic platform and would highly advise professional photographers, weekend photographers and also brands to sign up and start contributing to the platform, why? Let me tell you…

• FREE organic reach to millions of creatives from around the world who will discover you or the brand you’re working for, if you were running digital adds to get this kind of reach would cost a significant amount of ad spend so save yourself some money and get on there!

• To seek new photography work, Industry people use the platform to search for content creators, so you might be booking for next gig from 3 - 5 uploads.

• Give back to the creative community, have a chance to see work you may not of used turn into something increadible!
