Hi all,
I see some posts about the importance of having good names for your image files, but also add titles and alt ???? tags.
What’s the difference between title and alt and should the 2 be different?
Also how do you make them different, a picture of slot A is a picture of slot A?
I just do title: Slot A
Alt: Slot AI think I am doing this wrong, LOL. please let me know what the best way is to do this correctly?
You’re correct with your title but your alt tag should be a bit more descriptive. The alt tag is meant for readers that are maybe visually challenged. The device that they use to “read” your webpage would perhaps vocalise your text out loud and also use your alt description of the image to better describe the image to the visually challenged person.
Title = Uncle Norman 1912
alt = Photograph of Uncle Norman taken in 1912.
or it could be alt = Portrait of Uncle Norman painted in 1912.
Hope that helps.
