Product image alt optimization guideline in Tapita SEO & Speed


It will be assumed that you are a Tapita advanced account. Let’s roll down and read each feature in detail one by one. 




"Alt" text is the text that describes an image, mostly for search engine bots. Here is an example of an image's alt text:


<img src="puppy.jpg" alt="Dalmatian puppy playing fetch"/>

Although this is not visible to end users, you should always provide alt text for your images to help search engines understand the content of your images.


The Product image alt optimization helps you optimize your product image alt texts in bulk and automatically to help search engines better understand your content and for your images to rank on Google Images. Also, if you see in SEO Audit the error "Missing image alt text", then you can fix that error by using this feature.




To optimize the alt texts for your product images:

  • Enter your alt text template in the Alt Template field. You can also leave it as it is by default.

  • Toggle to enable the template, and click Save.

  • Click Optimize to run the optimization process. This might take some time, depending on the number of images on your site.


Alert
Please note that this is a one-time process. If you add new images to your store, please click Optimize again to optimize the newly added images.
