Best image Optimization techniques
1. Use Unique Images :
Images speak a lot about your website. The starting point is your image source. Where do you get your images? Your content will be unique if you can use original images.
Check most websites in a particular niche, you will see a range of pictures flying around.
You can stand out from the crowd. One good way to achieve this s using unique pictures.
Apart from not being unique, another risk you will be guiding against with unique images is copyright conflicts. You will avoid legal issues if you take them with your camera or buy them. So when and where possible, take shots of images or pay a token for them.
2. Image File Names
After you have taken that beautiful image, you must give it a name. When it comes to naming images for user experience and SEO, you must put your keyword in mind. The image filename is a good way to get a search engine's attention to your image.
Images by default are auto-saved with numbers and several characters. It makes no sense to Google. Such naming is as good as that image does not exist. After the image as saved on your hard drive with such a name, change the default name to help your search engine optimization.
3. Use Appropriate SEO Alt Text
When your browser cannot deliver your image pics, an alternative is the alt text. Your alt attribute should be a description of your images. They should be 100% relevant to them. They are a part of your on-page SEO. As such, spend some time crafting them out.
They will contribute to the overall SEO and affect your ranking for keywords on search engines.
Worth mentioning is their relevance to people with sight challenges who cannot view images. Appropriate alt text alerts users and gives them adequate information about what is in the image.
