    Use those pictures on your site and use alt tags as well as properly name them so that the spider can understand what the image is about.

    Also go to your webmaster account and allow google to crawl the images on your site.

    Thank you so much, but can you give me an example of how to write the "alt" attribute.
    What if my images are stored on another site like photobucket, does that make a difference?
    Sorry I am only new.

    Thank you,

    <img src="cafeteria.jpg" height="200" width="200" alt="UAHC campers enjoy a meal in the camp cafeteria">

    This is how a alt attribute could be added to an image on the website. I would believe the the image would have to be resident on your web server.

    Because of the inability of search engine crawlers to read images, an alt attribute is required to describe the image to them. Based on the description Google would display the images for relevant searches.
