It helps search engines understand what an image is about. Alternate text is also very helpful in case images on a page cannot be found. Image title is another attribute that can be added to the image tag in HTML. It is used to provide a title for your image

With the help of alt text, we get the details of that image. For getting good result in page ranking, we used keywords in alt text.

For search engines to better understand the context of the page and for the visually impaired to understand what image was added

Alt text is also known as alt attribute. Search engines understand only text and not images. So, alt text describes them about the image and the contents around the image.

Alt image is very important. It decides to seo your image on google. Alt is the place where google search bots come to know what your image is talking about

The term "ALT tag" is a common shorthand term used to refer to the ALT attribute within in the IMG tag. Any time you use an image, be sure to include an ALT tag or ALT text within the IMG tag. Doing so will provide a clear text alternative of the image for screen reader users

If you’ve built a website and started to learn about SEO, you are probably familiar with the term alt text. Put simply, alt text (also referred to as alternative text or alt tags) are used to describe the images on your web page.

Alt tags are used to describe what the image is. It is for search engine purpose since it cannot read images. It also serves visually impaired people.
