Easy Tips to Make Your Image On Blogger Post More SEO Friendly

google image searchMaybe you ever heard that one Image can tell more than one thousand words. But unfortunately Search Engine cannot see if there is an image when you write a blog post.
Search Engine cannot decide what is in your blog content even you have beautiful images that can see by human readers.

Some users think that putting the right filename of the picture is the best way to tell search engine what is the content of your image. But that’s not the correct way of telling a search engine what is that.

For example you have car images on your blog post

<img src="car.jpg" />

From the example above only filename is telling search engine what image in your blog post.

If you want to make Search engine know what is the image, you should add ALT tag in the image. And the HTML code is

<img src="car.jpg" ALT="the best sport cars in 2009" />

From the example above will give clear indication that the image is a the best sport cars on 2009. When peoples search the best sport cars on 2009 your website may have a chance to show up better SERP.

What is the Advantages of putting ALT attributes in Blog Images
Search Engine will have better visibility on your blog images
• If some user try to pen your blog but they have slow internet connection that the image is not able to load, then a visitor will see the description of ALT attribute. This will also help when someone is using text based browsers like Lynx.
• Using ALT attribute is good in terms of SEO, it will help to increase the keyword density

How To Make Your Image On Blogger Post More SEO Friendly
If you’re using Wordpress Blog there is plugin to help you add the ALT attributes, how about if you’re using Blogger (Blogspot)?
When you upload image on Blogspot, the result will be something like this:

<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8NBVnAFRT_YnjVIm6-1b053A7bHA-s2YEwwVxoumdh1e2n8IwKKHbtCY2ugiZO6sApqK9vre7F6gFrMN21SQWiVsBHdORNqd373SNVn79f-Qg3AxfXodKTcd9Axi6MHqrye_SVNBOZEE/s1600-h/car.gif"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 120px; height: 166px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj8NBVnAFRT_YnjVIm6-1b053A7bHA-s2YEwwVxoumdh1e2n8IwKKHbtCY2ugiZO6sApqK9vre7F6gFrMN21SQWiVsBHdORNqd373SNVn79f-Qg3AxfXodKTcd9Axi6MHqrye_SVNBOZEE/s400/car.gif" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349076238879437762" /></a>

You can see from the HTML code above as default ALT tag (the red color text) is without image description. You can type your description of your image like ” the best sport cars on 2009” to make your image more SEO friendly.
