The basic set of free tools for the creation of bright content [Update 2023]
Content is a titled king of digital marketing. This is the major element of the marketing campaign which affects how many people will be interested in your publications. Moreover, marketers claim that in 2018 about 80% of the content will be visualized. Even today, the use of ”naked" text and stock images is considered to be a "mauvais ton". Therefore, it is very important to insert not only high-quality but also original graphics in newsletters. But how to create it?
Not everyone has a web-design wizard who will quickly realize any of your ideas. That’s why for many entrepreneurs, the stage of visualization becomes a big problem.
To prevent such situations, we have decided to share our personal experience with you. Atompark Software prepared a list of best free tools that will help to create bright content for your email marketing campaigns.
The power of templates: how to create a perfect image
One of the most beloved tools among content marketers is the legendary Canva.
I think, there is even no need to say anything else. The brand name speaks for itself — a lot of features, free templates, and beautiful fonts.
Crello - a young, but no less promising alternative of the previous online-service.
It is a perfect online tool for creating colorful graphics of different formats using thousands of free templates.31 picture formats, many customizable settings and the ability to save images even with a basic free account.For example, creation of this animation took me less than 5 minutes.

The interface of the online service is the most simple one: enter the keyword you are interested in in the search bar, get a list of pictures, choose your favorite ones, apply one of the ten filters, and put your text or logo.
Animation — stands a good chance to become an obligatory element of interactive newsletters.

Stock photos: where to find background
If you are not satisfied with the images offered in the templates of the services above, the only place to find smth unique will be at photo-stocks. We offer you a list of free resources that we use ourselves from time to time.
Pexels Pexels - is thousands of free and quality illustrations to download. I would not say that all the pictures there are unique, but I often come across some quite interesting photos that I often used for our blog. Features: This resource attracts me by the fact that it offers the visitor not only the search for pictures by a particular keyword. Pexels also shows the rating of photographers and their works, among which you can also find something special to illustrate your offer in the email newsletter.
Unsplash The service is clear even for a novice. The tool's interface is based on the already familiar to you keyword image search. Personally, I love Unsplash for the variety of choice it gives to the user. Results of the search are not limited by a specific keyword. For example, on the top bar menu, you will see a list of related categories.
Newsletter subscription for the collections of unique photos. Death to stock is a free online service that sends its subscribers a monthly collection of unique high-quality photos. On the site "cemetery", you can find a selection of already sent pictures, all of which are available for download.
