Question

Search Engine Optimization

How does SEO affect if the images on the site are loaded from another resource? Does it matter?
Thanks to.

Answer 1

Doesn't affect SEO in any way.
There is an impact only if images from a third-party resource take longer to load than from their own server.
And there are also several indirect factors:
1- if this picture is shared or posted somewhere, then the link will lead to a third-party site, and not to yours
2- if there are any problems on a third-party site or the picture is simply deleted, then you there will be a broken link, which is not good

Answer 2

For SEO, no.
BUT! Download speed (resource responsiveness) - Google fixes and uses it in the ranking rules!
Therefore, only the responsiveness of the page from your resource affects.
Solution: Use adaption via LazyLoad ("lazy" loading) to load images with accessibility check (return code if loading is not possible - hide the image!), load only when they fall into the center of view (viewport and 1 viewport up and down for proactive reading). All this will allow you to load the entire page (located on your resource) without any delay.
