Success of Image Tags

A month ago Panoramic Earth introduced Tags for panoramic images. A month on the success of this has become clear with:

• Several thousand specific 'tag' pages being viewed
• 66% of 'tag' page views coming from search engine results
• High percentage of visitors following links to specific locations

Some of the most viewed tag pages:

england ¦ greater london ¦ australia ¦ beach ¦ cave ¦ hawaii ¦ vatican

This shows the usefulness of image tags in promoting the panoramic images on the site. Tags are added by the photographer as they upload the images and are therefore very specific and targetted - make use of them!
