Hello i'm having an issue on a very new website, this is just 4 months old, but the problem is that the 90% of my traffic just came from google image. The problem on this kind of traffic is that people just wana steal or look at the pictures just 0,05% keep reading what's on the website is. And the niche is not even close to art or pictures but is about fitness. So should i disable google images bot or can i drive this traffic in a way to be productive?
Wow 90% of your traffic came from Google image? I don't think you should disable it because most of your traffic came from there but find a way to take advantage of this to your site. A pop up landing page to start building email list or find a way to get those traffics to come in your main page to look at the picture.
Thank you both for answers, i used that script in past, but result was just a huge refresh on my page that killed my adsense earning
Watermark your images with your website URL. This will help drive some traffic and make less people want to steal them. There are also plenty of ways to monetize images, such as: http://www.imagespacemedia.com/ and http://www.britepic.com/ (I have never used them) I hope this helped a bit. =)
Its better to enable hot link protection, in this way you will still get traffic but no one can steal your images.
Like people have suggested above, you should try to take advantage of this free traffic, is there a problem with your bandwidth? You seem to be unhappy about this traffic.
