It is easy for them to understand text copy on a page, however, images are difficult to read. This is where alt text comes to play. Alt text is used to describe to search engines what the image is showing, allowing search engines to give users better results when performing an image search.

It is good practice to put alt text to the images available in our website and especially to those images which are relevant to the niche and category of our website. Well the main reason behind this practice, it is one of the on-page seo factors. Google while crawling doesn't crawl the images but it crawls only alt text and which is responsible for the ranking.

Alt text defines the image description that is read by search engine spiders to know more about the image on your webpage. This helps to index the image and rank it higher in search results.

Search engines use Alt Text to understand images. The Alt Text box is usually one of the first options you can fill out when you upload an image. You can also add this directly in your HTML by simply adding “alt="this is your alt text"” to your image tag. You can put in additional keywords when you are adding the descriptions of the images, too.

Alt text is a great place to include your main keyword to improve your image search ranking for that term. However, it is important to use appropriate text that actually describes your image. You should not include keywords if they are not relevant to the image being displayed, and if it doesn’t describe the image. If you do this, it could do more harm than good and negatively affect your website’s SEO.

Hi, ALT tags provide a text alternative to an image.Search engine crawlers use ALT tags to decipher what an image is or what it is representing.
