Why images are not getting indexed and showing in Google webmaster

[21centuryweb]

Hi,

I would like to ask why our website images not indexing in Google. I have shared the following screenshot of the search console.  https://www.screencast.com/t/yKoCBT6Q8Upw

Last week (Friday 14 Sept 2018) it was showing 23.5K out 31K were submitted and indexed by Google.

But now, it is showing only 1K

Can you please let me know why might this happen, why images are not getting indexed and showing in Google webmaster.

Hi There,

Press the 'go to new report' button in the top right. It should take you to the new Google Search Console report which will tell you the exact reasons why URLs that you're submitting aren't being indexed.

Feel free to post the screenshot of the results on here and I can help you figure out what to do next.

All the best,

Sean

Hi Sean,

This is how it looks now https://prnt.sc/kw8muc

I don't find the exact reason why images were deindexed, not showing there. When I check our images in Google it is still there in the cache.

Hi,

If you go to sitemaps and then run the same report against your image sitemap, it should shed some more light. Make sure to click on 'excluded' before you post the next screenshot. This will then list out the reasons that the images are not being indexed.

Kind regards,

Sean

We don't have a separate sitemap XML for all the images.

See - https://prnt.sc/kwheq9

I don't find the 'Excluded' in the sitemap section.

This is how our 'weight loss reviews' XML looks like.

We have changed the media setting as 'Yes' by mistake it was set to 'No'.
