Optimize images to improve SEO | Develop Site
Often we ignore the pictures but they can create a lot of traffic to our project
If we need to create more traffic, let's try using pictures. It is a complicated process
Good Practize:
- think that if we look at a picture of a baby crying, we know that this is but the search engines do not understand. One way to help is using ALT TEXT with what we are telling the search engine that the image is. E.g.:
<img src="bebe-llorando.jpg" alt="bebe llorando" />
- We must also take into account the weight of the file. Think it is very important that the loading speed of the site will be optimal for the user as well as for search engines. So we have to make the image is the smallest possible. It is advisable not to let the browser resize the images and useemos an editor to modify according to the size we want
- Consider also the file name. Prior to upload the file to the server let's give it a descriptive name that can help us in SEO
- Consider also the subtitles. There are many ways to do this but I find it more effective, such as using CSS:
<div class="image">> <img ...> <div>texto</div> </div>
.image .caption { font-size: 80%; font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; text-align: center; }
