How to Remove a Google Image from a Website

Step 1: Speak with the website's owner to have the image removed.

Here are a few ways to get in touch with a website's owner:

• Contact us link: Find a "Contact Us" link or an email address for the site owner.

• Use Whois to find contact information: You can use Google to conduct a Whois (who is?) search to find the website's owner. Go to Google.com and search for "whois" www.example.com. You can frequently find the owner of the website's email address under "Registrant Email" or "Administrative Contact."

• Make contact with the website's host: Who hosts the website is typically disclosed in the Whois search result. If you're unable to reach the site owner, try contacting the site's hosting company.

Step 2: Using the Remove Outdated Content page

1. Open the Remove Outdated Content tool. In order to prevent misuse, you must be signed into a Google account in order to use this tool.

2. Enter the page's or image's URL in the appropriate format. You need to request the image separately for each page it appears on.

3. Click Submit.

   • You will be prompted for more information if the provided URL leads to a page or image that is still available. If asked for text, provide 1-2 words that existed in the old version of the page but no longer exist in the new version.

4. Your request will be added to the request queue at the tool's bottom following a successful submission.

5. Check back frequently to see how your request is progressing. If rejected, a link to a justification will be provided.

6. If your request is approved:

   • If the page is no longer available, it will no longer appear in Google search results.

   • If the page remains available but has changed, the snippet and cached result will be removed from Search results, but both will be refreshed the next time Google's crawler visits the page. Until that time, the page can still appear in Google search results.

How to Remove a Google Image from Social Media

2. Go to your profile and select the image you want to remove.

3. Click on the three lines in the top-right corner of the image and click "remove from profile."

4. If you use a third-party service that lets you manage your social media profiles, such as Hootsuite, you can also remove images from your profile.
