This week - For a reason I will explain later today, I didn’t have the time to shoot any picture! Long story… bad story actually! So what did I do? I went over to eBay and looked at the category list on the left side of the page. I took the first word, Antiques, and typed it into Google Image search… (images.google.com)
Google returned a page of pictures, all related to antiques!
This week - if you draw a blank… go to Google images and type a stray word into the browser, you may be surprised at what ideas you get!

This is a great way to brainstorm a niche (try radio control lawnmower) Looking through a dozen or so pages will give you many ideas to focus your category pages on. It will also give you many ideas you never thought of.
Two suggestions: First, Unless you like suprises make sure in Google the moderate safe-search is turned on (you can set this in the preferences section. The link is just to the right of the search button) The porn industry has spent years alt texting their graphics.
Second: If you add graphics (i.e. pictures) to your site be sure to make the alt text meaningful. You can get some visitors to your site when they do an image search if you properly label your images.
Great Tips Paul - Thank you!

Just wondering if those beautiful pictures in images.google.com are “free” for the “taking”. I figure not all of them will be free but how would you sort the free and non-string attached pictures ? that we can use.
