SEO for pictures and videos

    Here I will give you some search engine optimization tips for pictures and videos_

    - Tag the most important in the picture.
    - The size on the picture is important.
    - Number of clicks is an important affect.
    - Hotlink to the picture on your own server (it will increase the rank of your picture)

    If anyone has more information feel free to write it, and I will list it up.

    As you now images cant be read so we use alt tag so that Google crawler or Google bot when visit on the link it can understand for what this image has been post so if you have added alt tag to images its very good

    Tags are both important to both images and videos, but of course, we must eep in mind that keywords within the title will be a big factor in having good rankls at Google, Yahoo! and Bing.

    Alt tag is useful for the Search Engine Bots which can't read images.

    Good way to get traffic from Google images and alike ;)

    alt tag is really very useful to target images in serp run. :)

    but i dont think that image size have any connection with serp. that is only for webpages settings. and if you cant explain your own points it means you are doing copy paste here. :D
    and asking for reputation is not good manner. if you do great job then people will give you this free points automatically . :)

    Cheers :D

    yes of course as well as the file name of the image and the link, so its better going to your website to gather traffics.
