    Image Optimization is one of the part of On Page Optimization. If you have images in your website and you want to sponsor your images then you can do this by the image optimization. Nowadays Google search engine is giving importance to images. Many people are searching only images in search engines.

    Image optimization is same as optimizing the website contents. This is doing for optimizing the images to be shown in image search. For doing this you should give title tags as the name of the image using alt tag.

    Image optimizing is the process of reducing the file size of an image while maintaining the highest image quality.Image optimizing is using the most compressed at visually acceptable image in the proper file format for the specific role of the image.

    Image optimization is the good way to bring traffic and decreases bounce rate as well. In order to apply this image optimization you need to use alt tag.

    Hello~!!
    Image optimization is the process of optimizing your image with alt tags. Google cannot read images. So you use the "alt" Alt tag is meant to be an alternative information source the both tags are primarily meant for visitors (though alt text seems more important for crawlers) so provide explicit information on an image to encourage them to view it or get them interested. Include your main keywords in both of them but keep them different. Keyword stuffing in "alt" and "title" is still
    keyword stuffing, so keep them relevant and meaningful.

    I hope this information was useful 4 U......
    Good Day!

    HI there,

    Google cannot read your image's content. Instead it will read the text in Alt attribute which describe what the image is about.

    So choose a descriptive text for your Alt.

    Tittle attribute has no meaning in SEO but it will help users to recognize what the image content is about too. So don't miss it.

    And most important, add your image to your XML sitemap.

    Image optimization is an on page SEO technique to optimize the images on your website using alt and title tags. Since, search engine bots like Google's Spider and others cannot read the images, using these tags the spider understands what the image is about and also displays the alt tag if the image is unable to load. It is one of the important on page SEO techniques.

    Adding images to your website will not only complement the looks of your website, they will make your website even more search engine friendly. Search engines will recognise your website as valid with the keyword chosen if you use further content besides written. It acts as another method to essentially appeal to search engines and gain higher rankings.

    You'll want to add keywords and relevant text to your images to get search engine benefits. To do so you need to use the alt tag in your image file.

    If you are using Wordpress, you can enter your Alternative Text in a box when you add the image.

    If you are manually adding images to your site, you'll use a tag like this:

    <img src="image-name.jpg" alt="image keyword, keyword phrases">

    All you have to do with the images to optimize them is to set up proper alt tag and title tag on the image... Tho the alt text is much more important.
