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:

All of the images are high quality. Details of pages are given below:

  • informationarchitects.jp:
    • PageRank: 6
    • PageRank of the page that contains image: 5
    • Alt Text: iPhone, iPhone Nano, iPhone Shuffle
    • Image Name: http://www.informationarchitects.jp/wp-content/uploads/2007/01/iphone_2.png
    • Article about iphone? Yes.
    • URL contains iphone keyword? Yes.
  • www.techdigest.tv:
    • PageRank: 6
    • PageRank of the page that contains image: 3

    • Image Name: http://gizmodo.com/assets/resources/2007/01/iphone_mockups.jpg
