Grateful for a steer from those more experienced with WP. Does adding "Alternative Text" to pictures add any SEO value to the page or Post?
Best Regards,

Not really sure if this is correct, but I read an article from reliablesoft.net that said the alt text was originally intended to describe the image to those that are hard of hearing.
I understood that the description should be very literal.
Which means you should choose your images carefully; they should be as relevant to your content as possible.
In the article, it did not say you should work your keyword into the description necessarily.
But descriptions that relate the image to the keyword boost your SEO.
So what's the best practice here guys?
