Hi,

I am looking to try and get images from my site onto Google Images.
Before I do this, I saw that its important to make sure Alt Tags are optomised.
Does anyone know how to check or change Alt Tags in WPD?

When you upload an image and create the Anchor, you have to put a name for the image - is that the Alt Tag? All mine have the same title, which is my Keyword.

Any help would be appreciated!

All the best,
Derrick

Your right that is the alt tag and it has a quite a few different uses one of which being for persons with disability's that wouldn't be able to see your image. So yes using your keyword makes sense but you may not be using the alt tag properly if it isn't describing the image correctly. I would recommend changing them to very descriptive titles.

Thanks for your help with this! I am using my Keyword, just wasn't sure if that was the Alt-tag!
