How do I stop my images from showing up in Google?

If you wish to keep images from showing up in Google’s image search we recommend the following:

1. The simplest way is to block the entire gallery from appearing in the sitemap. You can do this here:

Website Controls > Manage Pages & Galleries > Click Edit beneath the appropriate gallery > Gallery Settings Tab > Show this gallery in the sitemap > No

2. To block images on a per image basis, perform the following:

Website Controls > Manage Pages & Galleries > Click Edit beneath the appropriate gallery > Edit/Delete Media Tab> Captioning > Disable Image SEO

Please note that we cannot guarantee that Google or other search engines will not index your images. For maximum protection, please consider watermarking your images.
