Images

Hello,

I apologize for the issue you are facing with your images not showing up in Google Search results on mobile views. This can happen for several reasons, and while we can’t control how Google displays images, there are steps you can take to improve the chances of your images being shown in search results.

Here are some common reasons why images might not appear in mobile search results:

1. Image Relevance: Google may consider images less relevant for certain queries on mobile devices compared to desktop searches.
2. Duplicate Images: If your images are duplicates found elsewhere on the internet, Google may choose to display only one version of the image.
3. Image Quality and Optimization: Ensure that your images are high-quality, properly sized, and optimized for both desktop and mobile views.
4. Featured Image: Make sure you have set a featured image for your posts, as Google indexes images based on the page they are inserted into. You can set a featured image in WordPress by navigating to your post settings and selecting the featured image section.
   
5. Descriptive File Names: Use descriptive file names for your images that accurately describe their content. This helps search engines understand what the image is about.
   

If you’ve implemented these strategies and still face issues, it might be beneficial to submit your page to Google for indexing using the Google Search Console. You can use the URL Inspection tool to check if your page is indexable and request indexing if necessary.

Ultimately, it is up to Google to determine which images are most relevant for a given query. If you have further questions or need more specific assistance, please reply to this ticket, and a human agent from our support team will assist you further.

Thank you for raising this concern!

Hello,

Please note that Rank Math doesn’t have any control over how images in the SERP results are displayed; search engines display them as per their will, and it mostly depends on the keyword search term and the website authority.

You may try to add relevant ALT text to the featured image or image you wanted to show, and chances are, search engines will refer to it.

Also, ensure that your images are optimized for both desktop and mobile viewing.
