Actually if you have the right KW for your image it will bring a bunch of traffic, how about the quality??? I can define quality as whatever gets the most people to view your content. It’s whatever speaks to users the most and whatever speaks to the most users....The majority of visitors won’t want to read your pages or buy any products, they are just looking for an image to use on their web page, PC or blog post...so visitor is right after something the most in your site/blog...

Yes backlink is very important, but not just backlink, you must get a quality one, if you can do that it will definitely help you with your ranking...

Yeah! most of them are not quality visits in your part because most of the people search for images with the common purpose of viewing or downloading it...

It depends...

If you’re blogging about SEO, image traffic may not convert well. However, if you have a how-to blog or something related (for example, a blog about guitar making and guitar design), then image traffic can indeed be valuable. While a picture may say a thousand words it doesn’t always tell you what you need. That’s where something like a how-to blog has a potential hook. Like many SEO efforts, your results may vary…

The rate of converting random image traffic into regular visitors/customers might not be high but I do think that if your image is relevant to the overall theme of your site, it will help in conversion. Even if only 1% of every 1,000 visitors becomes a part of your audience, you’ll get 10 new readers. If you get a lot of Google image search traffic, this figure can turn out to be rather considerable.
