Used correctly, alt text can even <a href=\"https:\/\/www.semrush.com\/blog\/image-seo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">improve your site\u2019s SEO<\/a>. Read on for an alt text overview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"#basics\">The Basics of Alt Text<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#adding\">Adding Alt Text<\/a><ul><li><a href=\"#html\">Alt Text in HTML<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#wordpress\">WordPress Alt Text<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><a href=\"#best-practices\">Alt Text Best Practices<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"basics\">The Basics of Alt Text<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Alt text is an HTML attribute; developers will use the <code>alt<\/code> tag on <code>img<\/code> elements to provide a text description of images on a webpage. Most visitors won\u2019t see alt text, unless the image fails to load or they check the site\u2019s source code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a visitor to your site is using a <em>screen reader<\/em>, however, an image\u2019s alt text is read aloud to provide context and information. This helps visitors with visual impairments find needed information, even on an image-heavy site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should add alt text to any non-decorative image on your site. This is going to include most photos, graphics, icons, logos, and other similar features.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"adding\">Adding Alt Text<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"html\">Alt Text in HTML<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>When you\u2019re working directly with a site\u2019s HTML, <code>alt<\/code> is simply another attribute you fill in whenever you use an <code>img<\/code> element, like the essential <code>source<\/code> attribute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"sailboat.jpg\" alt=\"modern racing sailboat in ocean with crew during midday\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"wordpress\">WordPress Alt Text<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>WordPress makes it easy to add alt text to an image. After you upload a new image, there is an alternative text field you can fill out by clicking on the image in your media library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"756\" height=\"790\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/wordPressMediaLibrary.png\" alt=\"fields visible to fill in data after clicking on an image in the WordPress media library\" class=\"wp-image-95793\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/wordPressMediaLibrary.png 756w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/wordPressMediaLibrary-287x300.png 287w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you upload an image while writing, or want to edit an image from within a post, simply select the image block and expand <strong>Image settings<\/strong> under the <em>Block<\/em> tab to reach the alt text field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"849\" height=\"689\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/wordPressImageBlock.png\" alt=\"fields listed under the block tab in the WordPress editor after clicking on an image in the editor, including the alt text field\" class=\"wp-image-95794\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/wordPressImageBlock.png 849w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/wordPressImageBlock-300x243.png 300w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/wordPressImageBlock-768x623.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"best-practices\">Alt Text Best Practices<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Avoid Saying \u2018Image of\u2019<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t point out that something is an image or a photo, as the screen reader will already do this for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"iceberg.png\" alt=\"a picture of an iceberg in Antarctica\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there is something unique or noteworthy about the image format, however, it\u2019s reasonable to include it if that detail is relevant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"patient.jpg\" alt=\"MRI scan of a medical patient\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use Just Enough Relevant Detail<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Vague, generic alt text isn\u2019t particularly helpful. What could you learn from this alt text?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"flowers.jpg\" alt=\"white flowers\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compare that to alt text to the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"flowers.jpg\" alt=\"field of white daffodils next to a hill\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One is a lot more descriptive than the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s no one \u2018right\u2019 version of alt text for a given image. The same picture could have a different description depending on your content\u2019s focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"bagels.png\" alt=\"trays of bagels with a variety of toppings including onion, poppy seed, and sesame seed\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"bagels.png\" alt=\"bagels at Benson's Deli in Oakmont\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep your alt text focused on what is immediately relevant. Don\u2019t put an article or advertisement inside your alt text.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"bagels.jpg\" alt=\"Bagels prepared at Benson's Deli in Oakmont, using the traditional family recipe first developed by Gregory and Sheila Benson in 1936. For years, the Benson family has served fresh bagels to customers from all over the city out of their humble restaurant beloved by local foodies and old-timers alike.\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, anyone using a screen reader is already reading your content as well. The point is to convey what is in the image, not duplicate part of the article itself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Avoid Keyword Stuffing Your Alt Text<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Search engines and web crawlers read alt text, using it as one of many criteria to rank a site. Great alt text, like great content, helps your site rank better. Alt text is also a way to let search engines know what images your site has, since there\u2019s usually no easy way for a bot or crawler to tell what\u2019s in an image. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may be tempted to fill an image\u2019s alt text with keywords in an attempt to improve your page ranking, but this is highly discouraged. First, keyword stuffing an image\u2019s alt text greatly hurts the user experience of anyone who visits your page using a screen reader. Second, search engines have caught on to this tactic and now value properly written, descriptive alt text over alt text stuffed with random keywords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If Your Image is a Link, Let Visitors Know<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have an image that is also a link, be sure to mention this in the alt text and let visitors know where the link goes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"beagles.png\" alt=\"confused beagles wearing neckties surrounded by question marks; links to Frequently Asked Questions page\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">List Words, Numbers, and Information in Image in the Alt Text<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If your page has an image that shows words, numbers, a graph, or other data, be sure to mention these in the alt text of the image if not already mentioned elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><code>&lt;img src=\"sales-figures.jpg\" alt=\"bar graph showing 2019 sales figures. Q1 is $42,900, Q2 is $58,300, Q3 is $11,200, Q4 is $87,220\"&gt;<\/code><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alt Text is an essential web accessibility affordance for anyone using a screen reader.
