Okay, so our tails aren't quite as cute as a dog's, but they do give us a warm and fuzzy feeling when they waggle, or should I say woogle on page 1, 2 or even 3 of Google!
Inspired by a recent post by Nestor & Katerina Gasset, Realtors® Wellington, Florida on SEO Must Do Techniques, I was determined to use alt tags on the photos in my relocation expert blogs. Apparently, spiders love information and normal photos, with no alt tags, are simply blank space! If your photos are relevant to your content, the spiders love you and your tail just grows! For a more scientific explanation, please refer to Nestor & Katerina's blog!
Drag your mouse over the two photos below: What's different?
As you can see, there is a note explaining the photo on the left, but not the right. From what I understand, the spiders can see what's on the left, but not the right.
So, let's talk about the special code you add. Because this is in HTML format, it's difficult to spell out the entire code without getting a nasty little red box. Simply insert the following after the quotation following your size: alt="Winchester Relocation! Borders, followed by quotations, alignment instructions, and the final little a code at the end! Of course, you'll want to change your verbiage!
If this means nothing to you, simply right click on a blank part of this blog and note the source code. You'll be able to follow along with what I'm saying! Who would think it'd be so simple!?! Truth be told, I used EchoEcho, which is full of tutorials and great advice on HTML.
Now, go feed the spiders and try not to trip on your tail!
