Do you want to know how? Or are you saying that you know how and want people to ask you? If its the latter, I'm asking.

What's the purpose of promoting images on Google? Are they images with advertising in them, or links to your home page? Or are you talking about images for the image search feature?

Well, you can submit your image to social networks and image directories, so people can see them, purchase and or download them.

If you have a unique photos, people will find them while searching Google and other SE and will come to your pages.

Ah, that makes sense. I wasn't thinking about artists who actually sell their images. I was thinking more like a casual blogger who would only need to tag their images as it pertains to their article.

I'd love to know. It would be a good way to bring in more search traffic, but I have not idea how google picks it's images to show. I just know they pick good ones usually, but I have no idea how the do it, and more importantly, how one could get their "mouth-watering banana split" image to show up for that search phrase. I'd love to learn though...

Well, on a related note, in past weeks I've been finding that people find my blog through an image search. They search for some keyword that relates to a blog post, and then visit the page because of the image that was in the post. It's an indirect way of getting more traffic.

guys what resolution did you apply? When I'm promoting my images in google I think we must use 1024x768 resolution and most popular in the world. If you don't adjust your resolution your graphics it goes to lose appetite to the viewers LOL!

I think you can create a profile on facebook and promote it. Say, for an example you want to promote an image of "Anil Kumble" - A cricketer, Just create facebook profile with the name Anil Kumble and wait for few weeks and add some friends and etc... then when you go to google and search for Anil Kumble - Your image will be there, Or you can use LinkedIn for this too...... Hope my example helps you out......

If you want the image to rank in google image search you need to make sure that the image has text around it relevant to what it is about and a H1 tag above it with the search terms you want it to be found under. Also an ALT tag on the image will halp.

Google has trouble understnading what a image is about so it uses the text around it.
