I just noticed this today. On one snippet there are now six images that can be scrolled horizontally. I guess this will dilute traffic somewhat between sites.
Even better reason to have a standout image?
Were the images from different sites? I have not seen that. I have had Google select some of my lists of dog breeds and include images from each breed above the text of the list.
Yes, I have the snippet for "How to Sow Seeds" if you want to check it out.
Edit: Three of the six images are for the same webpage. Also clicking on an image brings you to image search rather than the website.
None of them from your Dengarden article, however, and you have a lot of useful images on that article. Do you think they are trying to pick images from a different source, not the snippet?
How is the load time for that article? The other day when I went on analytics I found the load time for one article was very slow, but it has the same amount of photos as my other articles,. Any ideas?
The one with the yellow dotted ring is mine, but maybe they gave you a different selection of images? I've found that sometimes the image changes on that snippet and others. It can be from the same article as the text link in the snippet, or from a different page which is a bit confusing for readers.
Don't know about load time, haven't checked. Presumably it depends on the readers Internet connection speed? What I really need to do sometime is go over all the hubs, download images, compress them and reupload. The pixel resolution can be maintained, but images can be greatly reduced in bite size.

Sometimes when I do a Google image search it turns up the same image on multiple stock photo sites in addition to the...

I'm a little bit confused as far as the legality of posting my articles across different blog sites. For example: would it be acceptable to post a blog on Google's Blogger and then post that same article on another blog site or on HP? Or is it legal but frowned upon? Blog etiquette is clearly...

On this article, I uploaded an image of a table at over 1200 pixels wide. The site then seems to limit the width to 1200 pixels wide. In edit mode if I right click on the image and open it in a new tab, it's 1200 pixels wide. If I view the article on Owlcation and do the same thing, it's only 700...

Usually I try to use my own photos and graphics on hubs, but some photos are impractical to take, simply because the subject matter is unavailable. So I often download them from Wikimedia Commons, Pixabay or FreeDigitalPhotos. If you're good at taking photos, consider submitting them as public...

When you use an image from a website in one of your pages, assuming it is not specifically labelled as copyrighted with permission refused for public use, one should still give credit to the photographer or site.However, often one wants to use an image which has been reproduced / copied a multiple...
