Google Image Search - exclude agencies

(1/3) > >>

MicroVet:
Hi!

I'd like to know if there's a way to exclude the microstock agencies websites from the results of the Google reverse image search.

When I search for an image to see if I find it in use, most of the result pages are from the agencies, and frequently multiple results for the same agency when the result page is translated into several languages like pl.fotolia.com, ru.fotolia.com, etc.

If I use the following filter to the search I only get the first site excluded, but not the second:

-site:shutterstock.com -site:fotolia.com

So, in this case I do not see the image on the shutterstock site but fotolia still appears.

Does anyone knows how to exclude multiple url's from the reverse image search?

Thanks.

Chichikov:
Did you try just -shutterstock -fotolia -etc… ?

dirkr:
Just use -site:fotolia.*

That should do the trick.

Kamran:
I have used mysearch -shutterstock.com -fotolia.com -dreamstime.com and it worked

I just did for shutterstock and it doesn't exclude the pages in the domain shutterstock.com. It may in fact do the opposite of what I want by excluding pages of clients where the image is used and the the agency is credited.
