CTR Boost in Google Images

Hi

I saw it only once on webpage that I forgot to bookmark... So there is a way to get much higher CTR when You have Your images ranked in google search results. When You click the image You get google images page: "example"

The webpage I mentioned had special script or hack that gives You transparent caption on that image (like this car example) that says: "click here to visit our website for more photos". The caption was visible only on google images page and I`m pretty sure it boosts CTR of that image.

Is anyone saw it too ? I think after we can`t use this code anymore:
PHP Code:
<script type='text/javascript'> 
if (top.location != location) {top.location.href = document.location.href ;}
</script> 
it will be good solution to get more traffic from google images.

So I know it`s possible, but I don`t know how...

      I used that old frame breaker javascript before Google stopped allowing their pages/frames to be broke.

      Not sure what your talking about as far as new code, maybe htaccess code?

        I have no idea how they did that transparent caption on every image that is on google image page, that`s why I`m asking if anybody saw that thing. It`s something new, I saw it only once... If I will see this again I will let You know

          I haven't done much research on it since Google stopped allowing frames to be broken. I think the new way has something to do with serving a different semi transparent image on the Google page where only your image is shown. That pretty much forces traffic to visit your own web page to see the real image (not semi transparent image).

          Search for something like htaccess image seo.

            Or maybe watermark for hotlinked images may be the answer ?

            VisoHotlink - Manage hotlinking

            If I get a little free time I will test it
