Images Optimization for Better Search Engine Rankings



Many websites have many images but some time lots of images are bad for site due to their file format and Image Alt Tagging and Caption so Image Optimization is best for website for SEO purpose and Google Ranking. Some Image Optimization Tips are here.

Image Alt Tag- Use the keyword in the alt tag because Google only crowl source code. It is a best way of better search engine ranking.

             Syntax: - <img src="seo-jaipur.jpg" alt="SEO Jaipur" />

Image File Size- File size should be small because due to big file size, your site time period is increased to open from Google and that why your bounce rate can increase. You can Optimize your website on these sites.  http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/imageoptimizer/, http://www.picnik.com/

Image File Name- Use the keyword in the file name and it should be show in Image SRC like <img src="seo-jaipur.jpg" alt="SEO Jaipur" />, this is a best way of Image Optimization.

Image Relevance- The Image should be content relevant and not should be top of the website page. You can place it in middle and bottom place.

Image File Format- All three formats have their uses:

GIF: Small file size, but 256 colour restriction is a little annoying
JPEG: Can be good for photos, as they show lots of colour, but they can be a little distorted with compression
PNG: Crisp and clear, although file size can be large for bigger images

 

Image Captions- Captions provide extra information about your Web images, but they can be difficult to add to Web pages without some extra HTML and CSS. We can use the align attribute in img tag for create caption.

Example-1.

 <p><img src="image.jpg" width="200" height="100" alt="" align="left">some text some text<br>
some text some text<br>
some text some text<br>
some text some text<br>
some text some text</p>

             or

Example-2.

 <HTML>
<BODY>
<P><B>Our Services</B></P><BR>
