Free Images for Facebook Ads, Courtesy of Shutterstock

Facebook announced that it will soon release a set of product updates that will offer its advertisers more and greater design capabilities, most notably access to Shutterstock images. 

There will be no additional cost to Facebook advertisers as Shutterstock's images are commercially licensed and available for use in all Facebook ad formats. The images, culled from Shutterstock's API, will be fully searchable and accessible directly within Facebook's ad creation tool.

Facebook advertisers will also notice that, starting today, its new image uploadeder allows them to select a range of photos or previous ads (as well as Shutterstock images). The benefit here is that advertisers will be able to create multiple ads at one time (with multiple images) for a single campaign, testing those images to determine which has the highest performance. 

The social network also has also released an update to its Android and iOS Pages Manager which allows admins to upload multiple photos for a single post from their mobile phones. Admins can also add/delete admins for the Pages they manage.
