Is there any tool available to check which website using Lazy Load?

Hello Experts,
Is there any tool available to check which website using Lazy Load?
Thanks!
-
Okay; we will try that. Thank you very much!

I believe they do get indexed, don't have any physical proof as of the moment. The easy way is to simply set it up on a test landing page, then request manual recrawl through Google Search Console of that page. and see if it gets indexed.

Hi Dmitri,
We are trying to determine if Google will index Lazy Load images. Please let me know if you have any insights here.
Like the original post, I am looking for Lazy Load sites, we want to test if the Lazy Load site images are indexed.
Thanks!

I would say it's not really for SEO, but rather for UX, which at the end does affect seo. Meaning that it doesn't mean that your rankings will increase dramatically if you do lazy load.

Hi @Dmitrii,
Thanks for the response. Lastly do Lazy Load is good practice in terms of seo?
Thanks!

Hi there.
I don't think there is an actual tool which will tell you that, but you can see it yourself while scrolling on a page - you'll see images loading as you scroll. Also you can use browser's developer console, specifically network tab. You should see images not being loaded until you scroll to them.
Hope this makes sense

Can lazy loading of images affect indexing?
I am trying to diagnose a massive drop in Google rankings for my website and noticed that the date of the ranking and traffic drop coincides with Google suddenly only indexing about 10% of my images, whereas previously it was indexing about 95% of them. Wondering if addition of lazy load script to images (so they don't load from the server until visible in the browser) could cause this index blocking?

How to use canonical with mobile site to main site
I am pretty sure that the mobile version of the main site needs to be the same canonical link from what I understand. I am trying to find good docuementation that supports this. Even better if its from Google or Matt Cutts. I have a main domain like http://www.mydomain.com the mobile version of this is http://www.mydomain.com/m/ Should my canonical be rel="canonical" href="http://www.mydomain.com"/> for both these pages?
