    I read your article on alt attributes. I thought using the same name as the image might be a good idea.

    I have an online gaming site, could you give an idea on what the alt attributes should be?

    I have now deactivated the title attributes, because they would have added a further duplication of the game name.

    For example, I wouldn’t use the word play in the images, because I placed it in the game frame and it fits.

  • Hello, I’m sorry to hear about the issue you’re facing. Thank you for reaching out to us with your question about SEO with images.

    When it comes to naming alt attributes for images on your online gaming site, it’s important to ensure that the alt text is relevant to the image and accurately describes the content of the image. Since you’ve deactivated the title attributes to avoid duplication, focusing on descriptive alt attributes is crucial.

    For example, if you have an image related to a game called “Space Adventure,” you could use alt text like “Space Adventure Game Screenshot” or “Space Adventure Gameplay Snapshot.” This way, you’re providing a clear and descriptive alternative to the image content without duplicating the game name.

    It’s important to remember that alt text should be concise, descriptive, and relevant to the image content. Avoid using generic terms like “play” and instead focus on describing the specific context of the image within the game.

    If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please feel free to ask.

    How to Automatically Set Alt and Title Attributes for Images

    I tried the suggestion given by Rankbot, but the results got worse. It was better to have the name and the alt and title attributes with the same name. But obviously it’s better to get better results. A tip from a human for inspiration can help.

    I have read many guides on SEO images and in fact Rankbot’s advice seemed strange, but I wanted to try. Since I don’t have time to do excellent SEO for images, I’m happy with good SEO for images and its text with a few changes.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your patience.

    The image ALT Attribute should be concise as it is used to improve the user experience. You will get an idea of what the picture is about, in case, if it fails to load due to a low-bandwidth internet connection.

    While the Title Attribute are for user experience and can be seen as image tooltips. Though, we recommend writing longer image titles than the image alt tag to provide an explanation of the image alt tag and image URL within the “src” attribute.
