Here are five simple methods you can follow that will increase the traffic your image is generating:
• Keep each image tightly focused on the content around it. Images that make no sense in the context of what’s on the page don’t help your traffic.
• Use a very short phrase that describes your image accurately and includes a keyword as an alt tag and as the file name of the image.
• Instead of an alt tag you can use a long description tag (longdesc= instead of alt=).
Create a longer description accurately describing your image including a long tail keyword phrase you want to target.
• Use jpg, gif or png files for your images because they can be viewed on any type of computer and mobile device.
• Compress the file size of your images to speed up their loading time on your site.
• Use professional looking images. Junky images hurt your credibility and can kill your traffic, click throughs and your sales.
