How to Choose the Best Social Media Platform for Your Brand
Unlocking your brand’s full potential starts with choosing the right social media platform!
Creative Commons is a solution designed to support content creators who want access to attribution-free content from the artists behind various animations, music, images and more.
Creative Commons is an organization that began in 2001. The group strives to help people share their creativity in a more “accessible” world. The work supported by Creative Commons appears all over the internet, in Wikipedia, Flickr and on millions of videos on YouTube.
All over the world, pieces of content are given copyright protection from the moment they’re created. People cannot legally copy or distribute images and videos that they find online without the permission of the creator. However, many artists are happy to have their work shared and used. Creative Commons gives rights holders a way to show that they’re glad to permit specific uses of their content.
To indicate that they’re happy for their content to be shared, artists must place a Creative Commons license on their work. There are currently six Creative Commons licenses available. Some licenses allow people using another person’s material to make adaptations to that work, or use it commercially, while others do not.
If an artist wanted people to be able to adapt their content, but not use it for commercial purposes, they would choose an Attribution-NonCommercial license. Other licenses include:
Images made available to use via Creative Commons are easy to find on Wikipedia Commons or Flickr. It’s also possible to search on Google for visuals with a Creative Commons license. To search on Google:
