    Hello!
    U explain analytically in your blog how to appear image in search results. It should be placed on top of the article or to be featured.

    – My website has many paragraphs with subtitles. Every paragraph have an image. I want each paragraph image to appear in search results when a user make a search with the subtitle of a particular paragraph, NOT the featured image of the article.

    – Is there any way? Where should I place each paragraph’s image? Under the Subtitle, before paragraph’s body? Somewhere else?

    i.e. Article title: Best plants for sunny places
    ‘’Plants’’ as featured image here

    Pragraph 1

    Paragraph 2 subtitle: Geranium for full sun
    ‘Geranium image’’ here

    When a user make a search: Geranium for (full) sun, I want in the search results to appear the ‘geranium image’’ next to my website’s result, NOT the general featured “Plants’’ image

    Thank u!

    Hello,

    Thank you for contacting Rank Math support, and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.

    Please note that Rank Math doesn’t have any control over how images in the SERP results are displayed and search engines display them as per their will and it mostly depends on the keyword search term and the website authority. The Google Search algorithms select the image’s information as it believes it would benefit the users.

    In this case, you may try to add relevant ALT text to the featured image or image you wanted to show, and search engines will likely refer to it.

    Here’s a guide you can follow as well: https://rankmath.com/kb/how-to-show-images-in-search-results/

    You may refer to Google’s official guide on optimizing the images here: https://developers.google.com/search/docs/appearance/google-images

    We hope that helps.

    ”In this case, you may try to add relevant ALT text to the featured image or image you wanted to show, and search engines will likely refer to it.”

    Thank u for your answer!

    So u say in the Google algorithm can show an image which placed inside the article’s body? (NOT the featured on the top)

    I made some searches to check other site’s results. Even a result Description are lines and bold keywords from a particular paragraph inside the body of the article, the image accompany these lines, does not appear in the result.
    Instead, the general featured image of the article appears, which is irrelevant to the point of that particular paragraph’s lines result

    Hello,

    Yes, Google can sometimes show images from within the body of an article, not just the featured image. However, this depends on Google’s algorithms, which prioritize image selection based on relevance, image quality, and context.

    To improve the chances of a specific image being shown, make sure each image has descriptive ALT text closely related to the paragraph’s topic and ensure that each image is well-optimized. Unfortunately, there’s no guaranteed way to control this, but these steps can help increase the likelihood of the intended image being displayed.

    We hope this helps.

    Thanks.

    Ok, so its possible.

    -In order to increase the likelihood to be displayed, is there any specific place in the paragraph I should put the paragraph’s image? i.e. between the paragraph’s subtitle and the paragraph’s body?
    In the bottom of the paragraph’s body?
    etc

    -Under the images fields in the Media library, under the image fileds (ALt Text, Title, Description), there is a File URL field. Should I leave this filled in automatically or should I create the URL manually as I do in the rest fields?
    Even if check the image’s URL from the front end, there is the ”wp-content” and ‘uploads’ words there (https://domain.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/…webp)
    Is it normal?

    -What do u suggest, I should place in Alt text, (apart from the keyword?)

    -Is it good the title and caption fields be the same, or is it better to be different?

    -What is the image context u refered?

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Yes, it’s possible for Google to display images from within the article body rather than only the featured image, though the choice is ultimately algorithm-driven. To enhance the chances of a specific image appearing with a paragraph, here are some tips:

    Image Placement: Place the image directly under the paragraph’s subtitle or near the relevant content.
    Image Fields
    ALT Text: Use descriptive keywords related to the paragraph’s topic.
    Title and Caption: These can be similar but vary them slightly for unique context.
    File URL: The default URL format is fine and doesn’t need manual adjustment.
    Image Context: Make sure the surrounding text matches the image topic, which can help reinforce relevance.

    We hope this clarifies things.

    Thanks.
