Image Search algo changes

[firstconversion]

Just seen the image algo changes that have apparently been put into place in the last 3 months

My spam tester image site didnt seem to feel anything.

Did anyone feel image search change (for better or worse?) And on what dates?

Cheers

In my SERPs, lots of people were reposting my images on their domains.  A couple months ago almost every one of those reposted images disappeared from the SERPs - leaving my images in place.  I was really surprised that google did an accurate job of attributing those images to me.

Was it on a single day that you could Identify EGOL?

I saw your post on http://www.cre8asiteforums.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=90054&hl=&fromsearch=1

Was wondering if anyone had seen anything more now that some time has past, that whole change passed me by, and I dont recall seeing much or any talk about it

I posted that message at Cre8 as soon as I saw that the image SERPs were being cleaned.  Nothing triggered me to look at image SERPs... I was simply looking at images and noticed that the SERPs had been cleaned.

On that date only the high traffic SERPs had pirated images removed.  Now many of the secondary SERPs have improved image results.

I can not tell you that this has brought me extra traffic.  I didn't see a traffic lift.
