Google Images Site Search: See All Your Website Images on Google (2026)

Want to see every image Google has indexed from your website? A Google Images site search shows them all on one page, including pictures from old posts you’ve long forgotten. It’s a quick way to check your image SEO, find images worth reusing, and spot pictures that shouldn’t be public. We first shared this trick in 2012; here’s how it works in 2026, with Google’s current filters and Search Console data.

Google Images site search for your website

Quick answer: To do a Google Images site search, go to Google Images and search site:yourdomain.com. Google shows the images it has indexed from your site. Click Tools to filter by size, colour, type, time and usage rights, and click any image to see the page it appears on.

How to do a Google Images site search

  1. Open Google and type site:yourdomain.com (no space after the colon).
  2. Click the Images tab (it may be under More).
  3. Scroll to browse all indexed images from your site.
  4. Add words to narrow results: site:yourdomain.com wordpress shows only images Google links to that topic.

You can also limit the search to one section, such as site:yourdomain.com/archives/2012/, or one subdomain.

Filter your site’s images with Tools

Click Tools below the search box for these filters:

  • Size: Large, Medium or Icon. Use Large to find images good enough for Discover and social sharing.
  • Colour: black and white, transparent or a specific colour.
  • Type: clip art, line drawing or GIF.
  • Time: past day, week, month or year, to see how quickly Google indexes new images.
  • Usage rights: Creative Commons or commercial licences, if you’ve added licence details.

Check your image traffic in Search Console

A Google Images site search shows what’s indexed, but not what brings visitors. In Google Search Console, open Performance > Search results, click Search type and choose Image. You’ll see the queries and pages that earn clicks from Google Images.

Why some site images don’t appear

  • Blocked by robots.txt: make sure your uploads folder isn’t disallowed.
  • Images loaded only by JavaScript or CSS backgrounds: Google indexes images in <img> tags with a real src.
  • Tiny or decorative images: icons and small thumbnails rarely appear.
  • Missing context: use descriptive file names, alt text and nearby captions.

WordPress and SEO plugins like Rank Math include images in your XML sitemap automatically, which helps Google find them. For more ways to find great pictures, try these image search engines, free stock photo sites or AI art generators.

Find where your images are used elsewhere

Curious whether other sites copy your pictures? Open an image in Google Images and click Search with Google Lens (or use Lens’s Exact matches option) to find other pages using the same photo.
