google traffic
What is this ?
Well this is to take the traffic juice from google images . The net percentage of traffic from image searches has been increasing significantly .
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 .
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 .
You are done . Below is a preview how it looks 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
Typically when people search for images , your site also gets included in the listings for those higher ranking images . So you get some traffic when people click on these images , to get bigger size images or content related to it .
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 .
Try to use those keywords which actually do get searched at "Google Images" . For example who really searches for " WebMaster Forum " at Google Images , just try using something else .
