Image Search Optimizing

[owillis]

I was curious, does anyone know if there's any difference in how Google indexes your images if you use absolute or relative urls? ie

does

<img src="http://1234.foo/pic.jpg">

index differently from

<img src="/pic.jpg">

?

Not if you're serving them from the specific domain.

For example:

<img src="http://example.com/pic.jpg"> and <img src="/pic.jpg"> should have no difference however serving from <img src="http://example1.com/pic.jpg"> to http://example.com/ will not be as effective and will hamper image rankings.

For effective image rankings read my post #:3963173 here:
