Google Images frame removal Trick

I just worry about messing with Google in any way - is there a chance G may penalize your image /search rankings for killing off their frame? I wonder..

I’ve seen a few people say they were getting 2000 visits per day from Google images, then a couple of days after they started killing the frame, it dropped to about 20. Taking it off again, brings them back to 2000.

I haven’t personally experienced it, but I’m sure Google could do something about it if they so wanted.

See that’s exactly what I’d be afraid of. Sure, Google Image traffic isn’t exactly the *best* type of traffic to get.. but I’d rather have lots than none at all, even if the monetization is difficult.

I think you got a great blog!! Thank you for that. I’m definitely going to add u to my favorite

Can’t use it with WordPress 2+ ’cause it pops you out of the Write Post page. You would need to turn off the preview which is in a frame. Not sure it’s worth it.

this trick works. i have a blog that doesn’t get hits more than 100, added some google images and now im receiving 150+ hits a day!

Actually, I regard Google’s use of my images in search results as theft. As copyright violation, frankly. My site is mostly images. It isn’t a money site really, so it’s not about gaining/losing Adense revenue (though there is some adense on there), but it just bugs me that Google displays my full images without my permission, so I disallowed most from the image search (I think. I honestly don’t remember but I think I banned the Google image bot in my robots.txt).

If this works, I would let Google index my material and show *thumbnails* like they should, just like they show a text snippet for text pages. I don’t want anyone showing my images in a frame, Google or not. I just haven’t bothered to put a framebreaker on my site.

Here is another way of stopping people from viewing the full size images on your web site through google image search (and it definitely does not hurt your rankings - at least it has not during the 2 years I have been using it):-

Using .htaccess with google image search

Although I have to say that I am very tempted to try the javascript frame removal option - as this would probably work better in getting people to stay longer on my site… I am just scared of getting on the wrong side of googel…

I tried the javascript frame removal method - but it messed up my Google Analytics statistics, and reduced my eCPM!

So I took it back off again sharpish.
