A photo will help you find a person on the Internet

  • If you have a photo of the person you are looking for, it can be used for search purposes. First you need to convert the image to electronic format, if it was originally a regular photograph. And then you should use any search engine, for example, Google or Yandex, at images (pictures).
  • When you get to the search page, you need to find the camera icon on it to the right at the very top of the search line. After clicking on this icon, the search engine will prompt you to upload a photo from your computer. And after loading the system will give you a list of relevant options (similar to this image).

First step

  • If you know where a person often spends time, for example, in a bar, a park, or has been abroad, then you can upload an image with this place. And by these geotags you can find the person you need.
  • Thus, you can find the original source of this photo, which will allow you to go to a page on a social network or a page in a search engine. It’s also easy to find the friend or relative you’re looking for by looking at a picture if they’re famous or have been featured online using a photo. The same tags or friend tags on the photo will come in very handy in such a situation.

In general, it is possible in principle to find someone using their photo, but it is worth remembering that the criteria for “similarity” of search engines are very different from human ideas. Especially if this person is very similar to some celebrity, most likely you can find a completely different person.
