Posts about remote work, freelancing and productivity usually rely on the same tired picture of a laptop on a wooden desk. A little thought can make your images more useful and more original.
Show the situation, not just the object
A picture of a laptop is not very helpful. A picture of a person working in a cafe, in a co-working space or at a home desk tells a small story. Browse our business images or the business collection for people, teams and workspaces.
Match the image to the message
- Post about focus and deep work: a calm, tidy desk with few objects.
- Post about collaboration: a small team at a table.
- Post about working from cafes: a coffee cup and a laptop by a window (see cafe and coffee images).
- Post about work-life balance: a person outdoors or exercising after work.
Use images to break up long text
In a long guide, add an image every few sections, and only when it clarifies the text. Do not add an image to every paragraph.
Charts and screenshots often beat photos
For a tutorial or a tool comparison, real screenshots and simple diagrams are more useful than stock pictures. Use stock images for the header and for emotional or opinion content.
Write good alt text
Describe the scene in plain words, for example "freelancer working on a laptop at a cafe table". This helps screen-reader users and search engines.
Be honest about people
- Pixvora images are AI-generated. The people do not exist.
- Do not use them as fake authors, fake customers or fake testimonials.
- Use your own photo for the author box and About page.
Checklist before you publish
- Header image matches the topic
- File is resized to the size you display
- Alt text added
- No unreal claims about who is in the picture
