  Is it better to “Copy and Paste” pictures and photos into blog posts or is it better to “Link” to them? I have noticed that some of the pictures I once had put onto some really old blog posts have disappeared and these were all “Linked.” So is it better to copy and paste or what?

  I will appreciate any advice on this matter a lot.

  Thanks.

  It is better to upload rather than to do either of those things. If you upload them to your own media library, you control them. If you just link elsewhere, you don’t. If you copy and paste, that’s just another way of linking.

  It’s easier to click the “Insert photo” button when writing your post. That way you can insert a photo into the post from your computer.
