Like I can see if you go to their website and download it they can make money off ads, but if I go on google images and download a stock photo how do they make money off that?

Lets say that you had a company that wants to make a brochure advertising their new product. They don’t want to spend money hiring a photographer to take photos of models to put in that brochure. They would have to find models, hire a photographer, get a location to shoot at, it’d be expensive and a waste of time. So they go to a stock photo company, and find a photo that they had professionally done that will work for their brochure. The company then pays to use that photo for their advertisements.
