The idea has been discussed for years. It's a really hard problem to solve. As the person responsible for SEO at my site, if one of our content publishers were to post an image on the site, would we really trust an image recognition algorithm to find the picture? Rhetorical question. Of course not. As long as the world continues to search with simple text queries, feeding the search engines text will reign supreme.

This feature is about indexing the contents of images. @Dan_Graham of course it's a ridiculous idea that you will need to add graphic designers to your staff if you're an SEO consultant - but I wouldn't dismiss it because of that. Lots of people will probably try lots of ways to optimize their images for Google, so regardless how ridiculous it sounds, it may happen. @GoNFind there are lots of preview functions for search engines, from browser plugins to fully graphic search engines like SearchMe.com and others.

That seems odd, does anyone have a better handle on why that makes sense? If I make an image that not only looks like the white house, but also the taj mahal, my image will be more relevant? It seems to me that being well connected should still play a role. And the idea that SEO professionals COULD need to acquire graphic design skills is of course, ridiculous =) So the idea is that somehow, by more closely being algorithmically related to more images, an image is more relevant?

It will be interesting to see the progress of the field, when it comes to even optimizing your images for Google. So in the future, SEO professionals may need to acquire graphic design skills?

PIXSTA (www.pixsta.com) has already made great progress in monetising Image-to-Image search - exciting to see others enter the market. Very interesting.
