Usually traffic is the driving force behind our blogs. So it kinda silly idea to prevent a lot of potential traffic from Google’s image search. But there are many reasons blogger don’t want their pictures to be indexed by Google. Some blogger like to post personal pictures and some of them make custom pictures and don’t want other to take them when possible.
If you feel that you are that kind of blogger, you can easily prevent Google from indexing your pictures by placing the following code into your blog’s header file above the < /head > tag.
<meta name="robots" content="noimageindex">
If your site has a problem with people taking your content. Then there is a chance Google will still index them when they index that person’s website. Another way to prevent this, is to place images into a folder then add a disallow to your Robots.txt file. You can add something like the following to your Robots.txt file.
User-agent: *
Disallow: /images/
