Google Image Search - exclude agencies

<< < (3/3)

Wootan:
If you are on Chrome the extension "Personal Blocklist" will let you exclude results from specific sites. Just tried it for reverse image search and it worked for me.

I think that this extension will do what I need to. Thanks!

It actually does not block the sites from the searches, but it hides them from the results list which means that on some of the various search pages I may only get two or three results listed but at least they are relevant.

This makes a lot easier to find the potential sites which are using my images because only relevant sites are shown and not tenths of domains and subdomains of the agencies de.dreamstime.com; fr.dreamstime.com; es.dreamstime.com and so on.

It's a pity that it does not have a activate/deactivate button and it's needed to go to the Chrome Extension page to do it. But it's a small price to pay for such a useful tool for us.

Thanks for the tip. I may also take a look at the script option since I use Firefox .

EDIT: This extension is also available on Firefox

I searched some local landmark keywords (standard search).  I used to see lots of stock agency material in the results.  Now I hardly see any.  Seems they are favoring social media, etc.,.
