Recently I have observed that in Google Image search for my website page “My Projects” (https://www.joydeepdeb.com/misc/projects.html) Google have indexed all the images from my website except 2 images.
I have coded same way for all images with their description and website links.
<p><a href="[LINK TO SITE]" target="_blank"><img src="[ABSOLUTE IMAGE PATH]"
alt="COMPANY NAME" width="xxx" height="xx" /></a></p>
<p>Description Description Description Description Description Description
Description Description Description Description Description Description
Description Description Description Description</p>
<p>Website: <a href="[LINK TO SITE]" target="_blank">[LINK TO SITE]</a></p>
Soon I realized that the two images which didn’t get indexed are having height less than 30px and rest of the images are having height more than 30px. Although I have seen Google have indexed images which are less than 30px.
May be when Google see’s multiple images on a page, it decides not to index images with small resolutions.
The list of images on my page except logo image:
It is like, if a page has multiple images and Google have crawl budget for that site/page – Google is more likely to index bigger images compared with smaller once.
Let’s say a product page, which has 3 images:
Google is more likely to index Image 1 then Image 2 and then Image 3 - Bigger image get more priority compared with smaller once.
