Images not being indexed by Google

[digitalundivided]

Greetings, we have an image heavy site (it's a fashion blog that is over 11 years old) and for some reason our images aren't being indexed by google. We've looked at the robot.txt, CDN (we're using cloudfont via Amazon), etc as well as searched google webmaster. We still can't figure it out. None of the images on our pages are being indexed.

Any help you could provide would be GREATLY appreciated

I see quite a few jpg files being indexed in Google: *.jpg site:thebudgetfashionista.com. Are you missing pics?

Have you optimised the images (alt tags etc.)?

Part of it could be. I do not know how you do it on cloud front, but one thing I would suggest is to set the canonical url via the header. Search engines look at the header in files other than web pages to know where the real file is.

Here is the screenshot of one of your images headers.

Here is one of the ones from my site, see the link in the header is the canonical url.

I would figure out how to do this on cloudfront and I think things will get indexed.

Thanks. The images on our site go to our CDN (which is cloudfont by Amazon). Could our CDN be the the issue.?

I searched a lot of your images, most of the ones I searched were indexed. The ones that were not seemed to be because there were so many other sites using them already. Also, I have a feeling your image site map is not correct, or you are hot linking to other images. A lot of the image urls in it did not point to your domain. You can do a reverse image search in google images and search by url to see if your images are being indexed.
