As a forward-thinking web design agency, we’re here to guide you through making your website not just visually appealing, but also friendly to both search engines and all your visitors.

It’s a crucial piece of the accessibility puzzle, ensuring that everyone, including people who use screen readers, can understand the content of your images. But it’s not just about accessibility; it’s also about being seen online.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”1%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” advanced_gradient_angle=”0″ overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_custom_heading text=”Why Alt Text Matters More Than You Think” font_container=”tag:h2|font_size:26px|text_align:left|color:%2336434c|line_height:17.6px” google_fonts=”font_family:Montserrat%3Aregular%2C700|font_style:700%20bold%20regular%3A700%3Anormal”][divider line_type=”No Line” custom_height=”30px”][vc_column_text text_direction=”default”]Imagine you’ve added a stunning image of a person enjoying a serene moment in a park to your homepage. Without alt text, search engines (like Google) and some of your visitors are left guessing what’s in that image. Here’s where alt text comes into play. By adding a simple description, such as “Person standing in a park looking at a bench,” you accomplish two things:<\/p>\n
    \n
  1. You make your website more accessible<\/strong>, ensuring everyone can understand and enjoy your content.<\/li>\n
  2. You boost your website’s visibility<\/strong> to search engines.

Search engines aren’t fans of long, confusing descriptions or keyword stuffing. If your main image\u2014a hero banner, for instance\u2014lacks a clear, descriptive alt text, you’re missing out on a prime SEO opportunity.

      \n
    • Be descriptive<\/strong>: Explain what’s in the image and why it’s relevant to your page.<\/li>\n
    • Incorporate keywords naturally<\/strong>: If it fits seamlessly, weave in keywords that help boost your SEO.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
