In the last few years, agencies like Pexels and Unsplash started giving away stock images to webmasters and advertisers. For a photographer who wants to make money with microstock, it is not the best choice to upload on those websites, even if sometimes they can generate leads for their business.
Working for free means first not being free, because if you do not get paid, it means that you cannot do what you love for the time you want. Secondly, it destroys the professionalism of those who ask for money when they work.
