    If your visitors are coming through your website via the images, your goal needs to be to try and get them to stay on the page.

    Think about why visitors are looking up those images in the first place.

    For example if you have a website about smoothie recipes, people might be looking up smoothies and then choosing the one that they think looks the best, they then click the image, land on your site, and then scroll around. If you have the recipe on that page, they might be more likely to stay.

    The problem that the subject of my blog is about pictures of cars for example.

    So most visitors are from google image search...

      First you need to tell us how you propose to
      zap people from an image search to your website.

      The point is moot, actually. Google does not
      just show an image from a normal image search.

      It will take you to the page that the image resides
      on, then give a link to just the image, or the page.

      If you mean breaking out of the frames that google
      sets when clicking on an image in their search
      results so that no preview is made, very easy
      to do with (I think) a framebreaking script, or
      an easier way would be to use the htaccess
      redirect.

      Either way I do not believe affects google image
      search, as I see both kinds in search results.

      The thing is, it's not foolproof. Browsers may
      react differently.

      But the htaccess should be almost bullet proof.

      I don't see any problem.

    You need to increase the gravity or stickiness of your site. Add things that will engage the user like related posts/images, rating of the image, chat etc.

      I'll try to put something like that, thank you.

      But what I say is this, most visitors come from google images, could redirect would be a good idea.
