  On my website I want to keep Surnames private from search engines.

  Are Surnames embedded on photos in the form of Water Marks (Meta Data) in Adobe Light Room searchable by Search Engine Robots?

  For the same privacy, what about the WordPress Captions under photos? Are these found by Google?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  I’m not sure. It would be best to contact the support team for Adobe about this.

  For the same privacy, what about the WordPress Captions under photos? Are these found by Google?

  If you add the surname in the captions it can be found, so please remove it if you don’t want it to be searchable.

  Cheers!
