To test the accuracy of image recognition of both these search engines, I decided to use my blog logo as a reverse image search query. Here is an example of how it stacked up against Google: Its system deeply matches pixel-to-pixel, color-to-color, and shape-to-shape to deliver shockingly accurate reverse image search results. In my experiment, Yandex has delivered far more visually accurate and similar results as compared to Google. Now let’s review the top five reasons that qualify Yandex as a potentially good reverse image search engine: 1.) Better image recognition technology Once you’ve uploaded your picture, Yandex will return results with exact-match or visually similar images, including the list of webpages where these images have been used. Follow the steps as shown below to start using Yandex for reverse image search queries:Ģ.) Because Yandex Images is a Russian search engine, you have to first right click and translate the web-page to English.ģ.) Click on the small camera icon on the right-hand side of the search bar.Ĥ.) Either upload an image from your computer/mobile OR directly enter the image URL. So, the very first thing that I would want you to do is to right-click on its webpage and click on ‘ Translate to English‘. For native English speakers, this might be a problem. Not a surprise, all of its interface is in the Russian language. Related posts: How to use Yandex to reverse search an image?
