      Hello here,

      In the past I was able to find out pretty easily how many images from my website are indexed by Google and inside the Google image search index. But as today looks like Google is not giving you any numbers, it just lists the indexed images.

      I use the advanced image search, by defining my domain name for the "site or domain" field:

      http://www.google.com/advanced_image_search

      and then Google returns all the images coming from my website.

      Is there any way to know the actual number of images indexed? Any ideas are very welcome!

      Thank you in advance.

        Sure. Since the search still shows you all results.. simply does not give you the number.. what you could do is go ahead and paste the code into text editor or Excel, then filter by a pattern with the image links displayed. Pulled the total count that way. Yeah, it's a bit more work BUT at least they aren't using pagination 🙂

          Another method I have been using for a while, just to check the number of indexed images:

          1. Search for site:www.website.com

          2. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and hit "switch to basic version"

          3. It will then show the total number of indexed images via Google.

          I am sure their are other ways you can do it via crawlers and analytic's reports too.

            Yeah, thank you James! That's wonderful! I didn't even notice the"switch to basic version" at the bottom of the page!

            Thank you for your help

              Thank you for your reply, this is interesting and I could keep it as a "backup" solution.
