I have not gotten an images spider since then and bandwidth is still being sucked up. I do want want to put in a request to remove the site, but was wondering if there was any way to request an images spider or if there was anything else I might do?
Thanx,
Tim
That might not be the only problem. Other people now could be connecting directly to your pics on other sites.
If you change the name of the images with something that is not a popular keyword that should fix it immediately in the short term. For instance our pics on our site refer to the inventory number of the product which means they won't show up in a search. If you change them to a letter number system, you might even find that you can track them yourself even better.
Just a suggestion and hope it helps
Turn those image hits into money: put a frame busting script on your website.
What he means is if you use a framebusting script and someone views the image in Google images they will be taken to your page where the image is.
Like:
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
if (top.frames.length > 0)
{
top.location=self.location;
}
//-->
</SCRIPT>
between your <head> </head> tags
<script type="text/javascript">
if (top!=self) { top.location.href = '<? echo $location?>'; }
</script>
You can also get really fancy and look at the referer and see what image they wanted to get is and send them to that image on your site.
..thanks..
