“Describe Your Images, Grab Visitor Attention, And Increase Your Search Engine Rankings”
The web is a media that is rich. It's more than just simple text, you can make your content come to life with audio, video, and images. Since real estate is a very visual product it is one of the most powerful to incorporate images into. Having pictures of the neighborhoods in which you operate will make your websites more fun for your users and also improve your results in the search engines (when you let them know about your images that is).
The "Alt" Attribute
The Alt attribute is part of the IMG tag which is what enables you to put images on each page of your website. Now, we don't want to talk about HTML too much, so let's get into a quick example so we can see what the "Alt" attribute looks like.
<img src="images/Home.jpg" alt="Long Beach Home">
This simple HTML inserts an image on your page and describes the image as "Long Beach Home.
Sounds cool, so what?
Ok, so it might sound like a small detail, maybe even one that isn't important at all. There are some great benefits to describing each image that you place on your website.
-
Helpful to your visitors - Your visitors may not be clear as to what your image is about so you get the chance to describe it. Don't load these descriptions with keywords, but be descriptive! If your visitors have their images turned off (often to save download time) they will be able to see your descriptions as well which can increase your conversion rate.
-
Helping search engines - Search engines currently can't "read" images so they need the Alt attribute to help them understand what images are on your site. Being descriptive helps the search engine to "learn" more about your content.
- Caption below the image - Placing a small caption below your image, as seen in the above example gives the user another opportunity to take action. You could direct the link to a form to request more information about the area, or take them to your MLS search page so they can find homes just like the one pictured!
