What to do with Google images traffic?

i'm getting alot of hits from Google images that just eats up bandwidth. Is there a way to make some money off this traffic?

A lot of the bandwidth is just google hotlinking image on google rather than hits to your page so .htaccess may not help but there are smater people than I. Check your log file. You'll probably see hits direct to your image rather than a page.

Just make a thumb TGP with top quality thumb previews and redirect all traffic there. I started few TGPs this way ;) There are also some other way how to monetize this traffic but it is my secret

I don't know much about this but I can say there is a way to block pictures etc that you don;t want people to see without visiting your sites...

Seriously - delete/rename the image - theres fucking zero reason to give google a single fucking image for free when they display it in a fucking frame of their own.

Out of interest, does the page which your image is on (on your domain) rank anywhere for any terms?

I disagree

I hold a $8-10CPM on my image traffic

that is 20 times the bandwidth cost or so, works for me.

Yes, if you click the preview on google images it loads your site with a google frame at the top and a link to "see the full size image". Most people click that before your page even loads... Basically bypassing your page to see the pic.

Because half of GFY is already using my htaccess code but I never get thanked

This will bust out of the google images frame...

1) create a file called googleimages.php in your root directory:

<html><head><title>Loading Site...</title>
<script language="Javascript">
<!--
if (top.location != location) top.location.href = 'http://<? print $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"] . $url;?>';
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body><center><a target=_top href="http://<? print $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"] . $url; ?>">Click Here To Load The Site</a></center>
</body></html>


2) add this to your .htaccess:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} ^http://images.google
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !googleimages.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.*)
RewriteRule /* /googleimages.php?url=%1 [R,L]

What happens is most people just click the pic and never see your site.

It doesnt redirect it unless you make it, it just sends the person directly to your site without the google frame, instead of just to the picture.

There is a very simple solution to this: Open the images in your picture editing program like photoshop and save it with a different compression rate. Than upload the image to your server. Google Image will see that the photo was changed in size and will suspend sending hits to you. It will take a week or two to be in effect and usually traffic will be much lower afterwards.

It's much safer than redirecting in my own experience as you will not raise red flags for getting banned on google .... just my experience.

Just break the frame, put this between y're head tags

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JAVASCRIPT">
<!-- Hide from old Browsers
if (top != self) top.location.href = location.href;

I send it to fake thumb TGPs and dating/cam sponsors, really depends on how much and how targetted, but for large ammounts from all different niches dating works best for me.

Wow, i'm glad that you guys brought this up. I've noticed a huge increase in google images hits this week, and it seems to be some automated scraping going on.

Check out these terms:

00:45 Google Search: fuck+ hot+ g
00:49 Google Search: le
00:52 Google Search: naked+ b
01:41 Google Search: gir
01:56 Google Search: wow+ women+ nak
02:13 Google Search: girls+ s

WTF? Anyway, thanks a lot for the frame breaker, DomP_nl!
