Why Image Search is So ImportantIf the above information wasnt enough to convince you of the importance of image search, consider this.

When images appear in blended search results such as Googles universal search, the images affect what is clicked on the results page. Enge says an eye tracking study proved this, but it makes perfect sense if you think about it. The image is obviously going to catch your eye, regardless if its the top result or the 5th. Todd Schwartz, Group Product Manager for Bing says that engagement is quite high when it comes to image search.
