iphone and google image search.
October 7th, 2008 • image search, seo
I was trying to figure how image search rankings work. Did I find any clue? No. Here, I tried to find an image of iphone and look what I got:
- 1st: informationarchitects.jp: 435 x 355 - 41k - png,
- 2nd: www.techdigest.tv: 449 x 509 - 54k - jpg
- 3rd: www.breakitdownblog.com: 375 x 400 - 52k - jpg
- 8th: gizmodo.com: 470 x 384 - 52k - jpg
All of the images are high quality. Details of pages are given below:
