Free traffic from google images

[wurkanimal]

What is this?
I found something by accident that provides traffic through google images.

How to Do it ?
Lets say your site is related to "Mr. Bean"
Search "Mr. Bean" under http://images.google.com.

Choose any picture of choice that is preferably suitable for you . Right Click on the image which are being shown in the listing and copy an image at your site .

search_result_google.JPG [ 106.76 KB | Viewed 724 times ]


The image urls would be like for example -
http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:2Vl ... 520big.jpg
Remember that this must be the google image link , not the direct link to the site.

Now paste the image using the image url at your site . An screenshot of how i included it on a forum.

To get Targetted Traffic
If you are looking for targetted traffic then it would be better to make searches at the geo-targetted search engine . By that i mean using images.google.co.uk instead of images.google.com for searches to increase precision if you want uk based traffic .

Why do your site gets hit by traffic
I really don't know the working of the google search engine . All you should care is the traffic you are getting for free.

Results
Get about 30-100 uniques per image per day depending upon the image and popularity .
Traffic is almost permanent , it might reduce some days but never stops .
Please make sure you have enabled image indexing by going google.com/sitemaps , adding your site and enabling to index images .

I am not exactly sure what you are meaning.

How would it get me traffic by inserting a link from the Google image search into a site?

Well, to be honest I didnt fully understand what you meant.

Were you saying inserting a link pointing to an image from a Google image search result gets me traffic?

So adding this to a site will get it traffic?

I agree with neroux. How is this giving your website traffic? Isn't it instead giving images.google a link from your site or am I missing something?

looks good

But I got the same question, how would I get traffic if I link to a image stored on google's server ?

 

[wurkanimal]

I don't know how it works but it does!

 

[neroux]

I still didnt get how it works. What would I need to insert in which way to a site?
