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. I know it's not foolproof since there are other ways to hide your pics, but so far Yandex has been working well.Īctually, I wonder if I can find a couple of catfish pics and post them here for everyone to test and compare.Related posts: How to use Yandex to reverse search an image? Hopefully this is useful for all the people here. Go to this site and upload or paste the URL, then press search similar images, then select Yandex. Though to be fair, this person was able to confirm her identity, but I just did a test to compare the results. One of them wasn't a catfish, but the photo was flipped, but Yandex got it. I immediately tried out a couple of other obvious catfish photos that gave me no results on Google, and Yandex was able to get me the results. It's wasn't the same photo, but it was the same person since their nails matched.

I went to look for other reverse image search sites like Tinyeye and Yandex (both were recommended by a reverse image search site) and lo and behold, Yandex got me the results. Despite that, something in the back of my mind tells me this can't be real. I found nothing, so I continued to talk to this girl. I had a feeling I was getting catfished so I took this photo to google reverse image search to try and see if I could confirm my suspicions.
