Photo storage websites enable users to create an account and upload images to an online database. This database stores your photos for an indeterminate time. The storage is generally free, though some sites charge for higher storage amounts, or require a minimum annual purchase of prints or related products. Several photo storage sites have a search feature that allows visitors to locate certain photos in their database, or on public display within the site, by keyword.
