Using
ALT Tag Attributes Wisely
ALT tags are tags used within
image tags, which enables a webmaster to give images a description.
| <img
src="dvdplayer.jpg" height="200" width="400"
alt="Sony DVD Player Model XYZ"> |
In this case, dvdplayer.jpg
is the image being used on the page, and "Sony DVD Player Model XYZ
is the alt tag text for description.
However, you should NOT keyword
stuff your alt tags, but instead use specific keywords that describe the
picture without going overboard.
| <img
src="dvdplayer.jpg" height="200" width="400"
alt="Sony DVD Digital Video Player Players Model Models XYZ 123
DFG JKL QRS"> |
This is an example of alt tag
stuffing, which should be avoided. Some search engines consider this a
spam technique and will penalize for it.
