Search Engine Marketing (SEM) Interview Question:

Do search engines index ALT text descriptions for JPEG and other image files?

Submitted by: Administrator

Yes, most search engines, including Google, look at your ALT tags when indexing your Web page. For many sites, particularly image-heavy sites, ALT text is one of the few elements available for the search engines to index. If your page has no text at all on it, it can still get a high search engine placement by using ALT text.
