What is a Reverse Image Search?

Let us say you came across a forward message with the image of a must-try local delicacy in a city. Many days later, you are traveling to that city. However, you cannot recall the dish's name or remember who sent you that forward message.

You have the image saved on your device. With this image, you can search for details like its name, history, places of availability, and so much more. This process of searching for the origin and similar results of an image is termed reverse image search.

Reverse Image Search, also known as “Search by image” or “reverse photo lookup,” is an online search tool that helps you find the source of the image and its detailed information.

Trying to find similar images amongst billions of images on the web can be a challenging task. It can be difficult to track the usage of a proprietary or copyrighted image online. A free reverse image search engine can help you get alternate sizes or cropped thumbnails of images you already own, or find websites with the same image.

What are the uses of Reverse Image Search?

A reverse photo search or similar image search can be helpful for different purposes. Following are some of the most used cases for using a reverse image search tool:

Track Images to avoid misuse of your copyright

You might be a photographer or a brand owner and often upload pictures with your copyright. However, the images you upload may be used without your permission.

You can track the images by using our picture finder to discover images used without your permission. You can then decide whether to legalize the issue or recover damages for the images.

Identify fake profiles, unknown places, and products

You might come across some accounts you don’t recognize or may suspect the profile is fake. You can overcome this issue via a reverse image search.

Many websites use the same duplicate image to attract customers. You can save yourself from such scams through a simple image search. Any research done using images must come from verified sources.

Create backlink opportunities and improve SEO

You can use the image finder tool to find people who have used your photos without your permission and who did not give you proper attributes.

Instead of engaging in a legal dispute, you can use these instances as an opportunity to create a backlink by asking them to link back to your website. Eventually, your website will get increased traffic from its audience and perform better in search results.

Find the source of an image and curb fake news

In today’s age of social media, millions of photos are uploaded on sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram every day. Many photos are uploaded to spread hate and fake news among society.
