: How to see which images Google has indexed from your website? Ive got a website that is using lazy loading to load in images (so that the browser dose not try and load them all at once

@Megan663

Though doing a site: search in Google images shows the images listed, it's not an easy way to find out if they are all indexed, as it doesn't have a total count and can infinite scroll for a long time if you have many images.

However if you turn of java script in your browser then do a the same search, you will get an approx number of results shown and you can see the page numbers to click though the results.

Another way to show the exact number of images indexed is to to create an image xml sitmap, or add images to your page xml sitemap. Then submit this in Search Console (Webmaster Tools) and once updated it will show how many are submitted compared to indexed. Although it wont give you a list of which ones are indexed or not, it will give you a number

You can find out if Google is indexing your images by heading over to Google.com, searching for site:yourdomain.com then click the images tab.

This will list what Google has decided to index. Please note, Google doesn't just index every image on the planet and it can take some time. Chances are if Google has indexed one lazy load image, it can then read the rest.

Most lazy loads are compatible with Google, this is because Google is able to read the JavaScript DOM and fetch external resources through it.
