Alt text / Alt Tag / Text Attribute

This is a short name for “Alternate Text” which designates a description of images for search engines. Indeed, search engines, notably Google, are still unable to understand the content of images. However, they can read “Alt text” tags to display relevant images in their results.

The next time you add images to your articles, consider adding “Alt Text” tags.
