Image Search Referrals Increasing Lately
In addition to the huge volume of referrer spam in the past week, I’ve also noticed I’m starting to get referrals from Google image search. Not sure if something in the index changed, or if this is just a typical delay between content being spidered and turning up in the search results. I’ve noticed that blog postings can turn up in the main Google search results as well as in Google Blog Search in under a day. I’m not sure how quickly images from the posts get added to the image search index, though. I don’t recall seeing any traffic via Google image search before around the end of September 2005. The posts that are picking up the most traffic are from July/August 2005, and are a bit random.
