I Just Discovered That Images Rank very well!

Hi welcome to my blog, I hope you are having a wonderful day!

So here I was looking at the Google Search Console thinking I didn't have enough impressions on my website, when I realized that my images where ranking very well in google!

I didn't realize this before because you have an option on the Google Search Console that allows you to change from web traffic (that means your website itself, not including the pictures) and Images traffic (only the images traffic).

I was so surprised when I saw the Images graphic with much more impressions than the web one...

Take a look at this:

It took a while but, once my first post with images in it got indexed, I had more than 1500 impressions!

And the most amazing thing, is that this, it's only from one article. Because on the rest of the posts, my images aren''t indexed yet.

Now compare the two graphics:

Not even a third of impressions on the Web Graphic, compared to the images one!

I know I have 4 clicks on the Web graphic but they were made by me and also half of the impressions too (I was eager to see results on google so I was always searching for my website).

And that's why my number of Average position is so high on the Web graphic.

So this means images will bring a lot of traffic to you website! Always include images on your posts you will start to see results after they get indexed on google.

On the other hand, images take a lot more of time to be indexed, from what I can see here.

But once they are indexed, you will see good results, for sure!

I hope you enjoyed my blog, do comment below what you think about this, if it's worth putting images on your website or not!
