Hi

Everyday my scripts submit a xml to Google, containing new pages as well the images associated to them.

The pages are indexed ok but not the images.

For example, if I type in Google Web Search "Camisa Malha Cavalinhos", the first result is https://www.ebraz.co/listing.php?id=1052, which is ok.

But when I turn to Image Search, no results from my site are returned.

Robots.txt is not disallowing the images folder.

Below is the xml (headers [no longer] omitted).

What can I possibly be doing wrong?

Please ask for more details if you need. Thanks.

You will notice this one begins with the xml version line. Also it doesn't have the xhtml line in it. I would modify it to be identical to this example from google. I have previously seen non-identical versions having issues.

  • Thank you for your answer, but I said that the headers were omitted. I edited it now to full version. Also, I am going to try removing the xhtml line. – Robin LeBon Jul 23 '15 at 00:38
  • I saw that, wasn't sure if it matched perfectly. How long ago did you submit the first time? – Joe Jul 23 '15 at 00:40
  • No problem. It has been submitted once a day for several months (at least two for this particular page). – Robin LeBon Jul 23 '15 at 00:49
