Unhappy Website Fishing Story & Site Help Please

Hi,

This small fishing story explains my BIG problem.

Two men went fishing. One was an experienced fisherman, the other wasn't.

Every time the experienced fisherman caught a big fish, he put it in his ice chest to keep it fresh.

Whenever the inexperienced fisherman caught a big fish, he threw it back.

The experienced fisherman watched this go on all day and finally got tired of seeing the man waste good fish.

'Why do you keep throwing back all the big fish you catch?' he asked.

The inexperienced fisherman replied, 'I only have a small frying pan..'

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is the second day of the month and My one site has used over 1Gig of bandwith. After the last PR change or something happened all of a sudden I am getting tons of traffic. I would bet that most would be very happy about this. However I am not. I have gotten very lucky and the site is on page one all over goggle. For some damm good keywords.

Here is the my problem. It is with google images that I am getting the traffic.

The traffic from the images are bouncing like craze looking at the pics not going from page to page in the site. And just burning the Hell out of my bandwith.

This I do not want to do:

I do not want to redesign the site.

I do not want to re-size the pics.

Thing I am think about doing.

1.) Is there a way to block google image and still keep google search? Right Now over 80% of traffic is coming from google images and bouncing.

2.) Is there a way to redirect the traffic you get from google image only so that that a person must see an ad and wait over 30 sec before the pic will load. with NO way around it.

3.) I need an experienced fisherman to tell me what to do?

Why do I want to do this. It is costing me for this bandwith that I am seeing NO revenue in return.

Thanks in advance

Butterflies Forever

Sami

I don't know how to do this. Put it does look possible to do a redirect based on the referrer after the user clicks on "See full size image"

Perhaps this solution from shadyseo will work (also check out the comments for more tips)
Traffic From Google Image Search: Re-Claiming Your Visitors : Slightly Shady SEO
PHP Code:
<script language=”Javascript”>
if(
parent.location != self.location)
{
parent.location=self.location;
}
</script> 
Put that in an external JS, restricted by Robots.txt

You may want to try Bogart's suggestion as stated above or you can use the following code to break out of frames

Quote:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
if (parent.frames.length > 0) { parent.location.href = location.href; }
-->

</script>
This script works very well, as soon as a user clicks on the image on Google and comes to your site, the Google Images Frame is broken. So in such cases users normally would look around your site rather than just steal your images and go.

My case is somewhat similar to yours as one of my site is ranking between 1-7 for very good keywords like 'pagerank', 'ask', 'ask.com', 'robots.txt', etc.. in Google images.
So this framebreaker code helps a lot.
Good Luck.

I hope this trick will help you.

by using this trick you can remove any frame and you start getting traffic.
that means this will not help you to cut your bandwidth usage but this will help you to convert that bandwidth usage into REVENUE.

You can block the Google image spider in the robots.txt file. I do that on all of my sites because I prefer not having my images stolen by everyone who mistakenly thinks that Google images are free to use. I have also found that this traffic does not result in business, because it is frequently from people who are merely looking for images and not from those looking for answers or information.

Just add the following to the robot.txt file. This does not affect the regular Google search spider. It may take some time got Google to recognize it.


Code:
User-agent: Googlebot-Image
Disallow: /
As an experienced fisherman, my advice is to eliminate the fish that do not put food on your table.

Hi,

OK one step at a time.

1.) I have had a codebreaker on the site for over a year now

Check site:freewomensblogs.com - Google Search

2.) I have this line in my .htaccess Yet I am still getting hotlinked

Code:
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(.+\.)?freewomensblogs\.com/ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteRule .*\.(jpe?g|gif|bmp|png)$ /images/nohotlink.jpe [L]
3.)This is my Robots.txt But I see I have a Cap. R would that make a difference?

Disallowing access to Malicious Bots from the robots.txt wont help. I doubt they even bother to check the robots.txt, following instructions from it is not something that would ever happen.

Honestly speaking, you should be happy that you are receiving this traffic. Be it Google images or whatever, as long as there is a possibility for its conversion to atleast some revenue i don't think you should block it.

I agree with snak3. Bad bots ignore the robots.txt file. It is a voluntary file.

The Googlebot-Image spider usually does follow the robots.txt file. If that has been in there for a year, it should be working.

The Cap R in the file name is your problem. The robots.txt file name needs to be all lower case. Naming it Robots.txt is incorrect.

All file names are case sensitive on Unix and Linux servers.

I just verified that this is the problem. When you enter robots.txt after your domain name, you get the default robots.txt that WordPress generates, which merely contains:

Code:
User-agent: *
Disallow:
When you name the file properly, WordPress should stop displaying their default file.
