Default Re: Title vs. ALT with images?

alt tags are not displayed to search engines and likely any scoring of keywords within this tag would be minimalistic.....If you are not on the front page without the use of these tags you will not get there using them either.

The alt image tag is used as Orion noted for text to speech reading software.

IMPORTANT NOTE

capitalizing words or keyword stuffing in this tag is a clear indicator to the search engines that your are trying to optimize your site for rankings and NOT users.

Use alt="keyword image" once or twice at the beginning of your page and from there alt="image"

Nobody wants to hear your keyword jammed tags repeated to them over & over.....

Peace
