DCSmith Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Can this be stopped? Example, I have some images that have "York Harbor Beach" "New England" and "Mothers Beach" (the local nickname for it). I get search results for New York New York Harbor New York Mothers England Beach England Etc. The only single words I have from those is "York" and "Beach" Most of the searches in my Alamy Measures are like this, with zero zooms and clicks of course.

Gee . . . if you stop long enough to look closely, you'll see that's exactly . . . exactly . . . what everyone who has responded has been talking about. Everyone understands, as every response shows. Seriously, if I were you I'd be much, much more worried about the chance of false positives as a result of your use of irrelevant (or at least unnecessarily ambiguous) keywords--that's an issue you yourself can affect without having to rely on any action from Alamy.

I'd have given you two greenies, if I could, but you'll have to settle for the official LOL symbol and these: 👍🏻👍🏻 Glad to see the official Alamy sense of humor too.
