I have recently noticed a lot of content online, especially on TikTok stating that selling stock photography is easy money and a way to make a passive income. Whilst there is some truth in this, what these videos do not tell state, is how much work goes into selling stock.

For example, always be mindful of sites that will allow you to buy subscribers and views.

Where to Get Free Stock Images for Your Articles and Blog Posts
As a hobby writer, blogger and YouTuber, I understand the frustrations in finding good quality, free images that can be used for articles and other creative pursuits.

However, as a stock photographer myself, I offer free images because it gives me exposure.

Are British Airways Avios Air Miles Worth Collecting?
I never collected Airmiles, but I have been collecting Avios for many years, and I do recommend collecting them if you like to travel, as you can collect them for free and get money off travel. I have flown long-haul on several occasions at a fraction of the price of a normal ticket by using my Avios points. However, you often have to be flexible with your travel dates and routes in order to get the best deal. Also, BA customer services are appalling if you even need to contact them for anything. So using Avios definitely has its pro's and con's.
