Royalty-free images means that once you have downloaded an image you are free to use it on your website or in your printed materials as much as you like. This also means that you don’t buy the exclusive rights to the image, so you cant resell it, and you might see the same image on another website. Buying exclusive rights to images is far more costly than buying royalty-free images.
The price for downloading a royalty-free image usually depends on the size you need. Web-sized images cost from $1 to a few dollars and print size images cost a bit more (around $10 and up). You pay for downloading the images using a refundable prepaid account. Simple and easy.
