Pics As Links

Remind me, please, how Google will take that if I make internal links in the form of pics. Is this method SEO friendly? Well, you know sometimes pics look much better than just simple text links...

 

yes sure, pictures can be helpful too, but just make sure you have an alt tag for all your pics, those can act as your anchor text when google crawls your site. And this also helps if you check your search in google by Images option and not the Web. Good question, thou....

 

Absolutely well said

 

I agree with avadhootd, but make sure you only use pictures you have permissions to use. People take copyright infringement lightly, but you could get screwed big time for it.

 

Hey clientchuk.... this is the first and foremost thing you have to keep in the back of your mind, create your own pics. Go out explore the world around you, click some good, bad, excellent pics and put them up

 

Ah, come on! There are plenty of free-to-use pics around. I don't need someone's unique masterpiece after all

 

I am also working on getting results through image search these days. Havnt got any good results, but I am not giving up anytime soon.

 

there is no seo benefits other then ranking the pic on Google Images.

 

Well, if you have the bandwidth to burn, Images is another place to get traffic from.
I have often found sites by looking for pictures I like.
I highly doubt I am the only one who does.

 

Pics get a lot of traffic .. go for it .. no worries ..

 

Many times we see that, we can add the only text links to the some Pics and This is a SEO Friendly Methods.Google is also count the internal backlinks.

 

google images identify those images and thru it you'll receive trafiic.

 

Google read alt tag of image. Alt tag react same as link. It also help to getting your image in the the Google search image.

 

I search on images a lot so images are a good way to get traffic. Make sure you use the 'alt' tag cos Google uses it for keywords. 'Alt' is useful for accessability for people with visual difficulties that use page readers. Also remember if you can use photoshop well it's easy to create your own images for menu's etc.

How Google to Check the copyright?
Google can recognize which one is the origin?

 

I understand that alt for <img> is the same as anchor text for <a>?

Can be wrong though.

 

Good Details are containing in the Post.

 

If your goal is to rank for your targeted keywords then text link might help. But if you think your images is more attractive to your potential client then images might be a good choice.
