Google Photos – Making Photos Accessible & Searchable for Creative Commons

google-photos

I want to add my photos to shared albums on Google Photos and have these accessible under a Creative Commons license. That is, other people should be able to find them when they perform a Google Search.

This is not possible with the Google Photos platform. There used to be a way to do it through Google+/Picasa, but this was removed around 2014.

You can try 500px or Flickr instead. Both sites offer you licensing options and images will be included in Google Image Search and work with its license filter.
